Biography:
The Wedding Present are an indie rock group formed in Leeds, England in 1984. They evolved from the ashes of The Lost Pandas. Their music has evolved from fast-paced indie rock in the vein of their most obvious influences The Fall, Buzzcocks and The Go-Betweens, to more varied forms. Throughout their career, they have been led by vocalist and guitarist David Gedge, the band's only constant member.
The Lost Pandas fell apart in 1984 when guitarist Michael Duane (later of dustDevils) was sacked, and Panda's drummer Jaz Rigby followed in protest.

[Verse 1]

And when I called your house
G D
I'm sure your sister thought that I was somebody else
I heard a laugh down the phone
G D A
And then the answer came that you weren't at home (ohh)
D
You know I never go there
G D
Because I hate to dance and you really don't care
Why don't you go on your own?
G D A
How can you lie there and say that you'll come back alone? (ohh)
[Chorus]
D
Oh well that's fine
Bm G
I don't care anymore

Nobody's twisting your arm

Before we go back in
G D
What about those secret smiles that you were giving to him?
Oh just "somebody you met"
G D A
Well I go out of my way and this is the thanks that I get! (ahh)
D
I'm just a slave to your greed
G D
I'm not the kind of boyfriend that you need
But if you'd like me to go
G D A
You'll get no trouble from me just so long as I know (ohh)
