[Verse 1]
Air-cushioned soles
I bought them on the Portobello Road on a Saturday
I stop and stare awhile
A common pastime when conversation goes astray

[Pre-Chorus]
And don't think I'm walking out of this

[Chorus]
She don't mind
Whatever I say, whatever I say
I don't really want to change a thing
I want to stay this way forever

[Verse 2]
Blue, blue jeans, I wear them every day
There's no particular reason to change
My thoughts are getting banal, I can't help it
But I won't pull out hair another day

[Pre-Chorus]
And don't think I'm walking out of this

[Chorus]
She don't mind
Whatever I say, whatever I say
I don't really want to change a thing
I want to stay this way forever
If you don't mind
Whatever I say, whatever I say
I don't really want to change a thing
I want to stay this way forever

[Bridge]
You know it could be with you
And don't give up on me yet
Don't think I'm walking out of this

[Chorus]
And she don't mind
Whatever I say, whatever I say
I don't really want to change a thing
I want to stay this way forever
If you don't mind
Whatever I say, whatever I say
I don't really want to change a thing
I want to stay this way forever

[Outro]
You know it's to be with you

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.
