Biography:
Dexys Midnight Runners - the name consistently spelled without an apostrophe - were a British post-punk and Northern Soul band who achieved their major success in the early to mid 1980s. The word Dexys in this case, comes from a colloquialism of dextroamphetamine, a type of amphetamine diet pill that was a popular 'upper' drug with England's Northern Soul scene in the 1960s.
Founded in 1978 by former singer of the Killjoys, Kevin Rowland, and guitarist Kevin "Al" Archer

Intro D G EM A
D G
At first I didn't know how I would be
EM
Without somebody lovin me
A
Would I be lost inside?
D G
But then I knew no valid love could not fix me
Em
No one could heal that part of me
A
I'm better off alone
Chorus
D G
Now I can't fuckin wait to go outside and live my life
Em
Unless I'm free
A
And now im gonna be the man I'm meant to be
(Same chords throughout song - D G EM A)
They said if you don't marry your be lonely
All good men raise a family (oh yeah)
Well that's not what I see
In truth some of them they don't seem so happy
They tolerate misery and that is not for me
Chorus
Come on come oon come on
Sometimes I think I should get some monogamy
And try to fit into society just be like everybody
(One Problem) I I don't wanna live like them
No I don't wanna be like them
I'm the one who must be free
Chorus
Ad libs at end
Why should I buy a book when I can join the library
It don't make no sese to me
