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.

Say It Again Lyrics
Badly Drawn Boy
You squeezed the life right out of me
Like sapping the juice of a bumblebee
And then you call me honey
You say it once and it isnt funny
When you say it again
And inside theres a style
Going on
A head full of dreams
Only room for one
Now I know you can live without me
And I have no doubt you will
Never doubt me
Like you did before
Were pumping our love
Into the sea
Full bodied
And bursting with energy
Cold blooded your engines are running
But where your going Im not coming
Cause Im happy here
Cause Im happy here
Now weve found a rocksteady beat
Now all we need is a melody
And words that mean something or nothing
So people hear and can sing along until they
Say it again
If theres trouble ahead
Dont go bothering me
With no future I live on memory
Dried of thought but my nose is runny
Say you want but I know Im funny
Say it again
