This was in my original drafts as an honorable 2009 mention but somehow didn’t save. Since I noticed so late…I’ll give it its own post. Isn’t his Scottish accent so cute? ;) I think the tune is kind of Christmas-ish. I also think I may be the only person I know who likes this song…and finds it charming. Maybe it’s his realization that his behavior is pretty bad. Maybe it’s the fact he is suffering internally because of that behavior and is honest about it. Whatever it is – I like.
Glasvegas – It’s My Own Cheating Heart That Makes Me Cry
So this is the grand finale
The crescendo of demise
This is the happy ending
Where the bad guy goes down and dies
This is the end
With me on my knees and wondering why?
Cross my heart, hope to die
It’s my own cheating heart that makes me cry…
Full lyrics after the jump…
Let the raining teardrops rain down on me tonight
I think making up, faking up stories is alright
Tick tock stop the clock, fiction is my thing
My attitude is always I and me and mine
Oh I’m so clever, I’m so clever, I’m so clever
Until my paranoia kicks in then I’ll accuse her
of doing all the worst things I do best
It’s funny how me f*cking** her about
Has got me in this f*cking mess
Liar liar liar liar pants on fire
Lies alibis lies more alibis
From the truth,I admit I’m more than shy
Ain’t it the times we are living in
Everybody’s doing it so why cant I?
I tally up tonight’s strangers
And stragglers that I’ve kissed
Training ground notches, perfectly executed notches
And near misses
It’s all about going out and getting pissed with eagle eyes
And sincerity bottom on my list
What’s the story morning glory?
I feel so low and worthless, yeah
So this is where the outcome unfurls and the truth is being told
A cloud has gathered over my head and now I know
Infidelity and my good friend ecstasy doesn’t work, it makes you worse
I’m feeling so guilty about the things I said to my mum when I was ten year old
I’m feeling so guilty about any old sh*t
And how I think my missus is f*cking every guy that she looks at
This is it, this is it, this is it, this it
The end was always coming and now it’s here
So this is the grand finale
The crescendo of demise
This is the happy ending
Where the bad guy goes down and dies
This is the end
With me on my knees and wondering why?
Cross my heart, hope to die
It’s my own cheating heart that makes me cry…
**curses are yucky


Been following your blog for quite some time now…silently. You have a real thing for music and your taste’s eclectic. Here’s something a bit different (eclectic nonetheless):
