[Verse 1]
Sorry, but I don't understand
The things you say, they make no sense at all
Funny, but I think that you mean them all this time, don't you?

[Chorus]
I know that you think I'm a fool
But couldn't you try to forgive a fool
One more time?

[Verse 2]
Sorry, but I'm not really listening
I've got my mind on something else
And sometimes I wonder if I'm here
If I'm here at all

[Chorus]
I know that you want me to go, don't you?
Well, it's not as easy as it seems
I know that you think I'm not here at all
But I'm just as fed up as you

I know that you want me to leave
I'm amazed at how cold you can be
Well, may my weak and insipid soul grow stronger in your absence

Blur

British rock group Blur formed in 1988 and began life as a fairly unsuccessful shoegaze/madchester outfit, but the band quickly developed into becoming one of the leaders of the massive 1990s Britpop scene.

Their rivalry with contemporaries Oasis culminated in one of the most famous chart battles in British history – one which Blur won when “Country House” outsold Oasis’s “Roll With It” by 50,000 copies, giving Blur their first #1 single in the process.

Following this, the group embarked on a new musical direction, deliberately heading away from their trademark Britpop sound and instead taking influences from American alternative rock, a sound which earned them new fans in the US and gave them their second UK #1: “Beetlebum” in 1997.
