Badly Drawn Boy Picture
Badly Drawn Boyis an independent singer-songwriter, born Damon Gough October 2, 1969 in Dunstable, Bedfordshire, although the family returned to Bolton, Lancashire before Gough reached the age of one. Gough chose his stage name from a character that appeared in the cartoon show "Sam And His Magic Ball" which he saw on TV at a party in Trafford, Manchester in 1995. Before he thought of using this name he made some 'business cards', each one unique, with a printed picture of a drawing by his nephew, and a small collage by Gough. This was then laminated and given out to friends and people at clubs in Blackburn and Manchester. His 2000 album The Hour of Bewilderbeastwon a prestigious Mercury Prize.

Everybody Stalking Lyrics

Badly Drawn Boy

Been feeling high
Then feeling low
Strap your hands across my engines
I'm not a broke so please don't bend me

Your like neon sign
Just burn so bright
Penetrates like an infection
Gives me feeling I can't mention

Maybe all I need
You need to
Don't wait for me
I'll wait for you

Gonna follow you around
Gonna wear you down
Don't want to alienate you
As long as it might take you

Things come in ones
And double up to twos
Don't want to rain on your prossession
Only seeking you obsession

It might take a little time
Got all the time we need
I'm not here to try and fool you
Just trying to break down thru you
That's wasn't right
Then nothings wrong
I've gotta feeling it's alright
Gotta keep you in my sights
