Lyrics: We don't know what we're talking about That's just words in our libretto I don't know if the sum of our stretto Will end up a terrible shout
We left the ground and we floated above this town That never got better We got drowned in the sea of love And I know that's it's going to get wetter
Bad harmony We're like bad harmony We are a couple wannabees Who do not know what they are doing
We're like bad harmony We're like bad harmony We are good company Going down the road to ruin
I hope we will better (x2)
We don't know what we're talking about That's just words in our libretto I don't know if the sum of our stretto Will end up a terrible shout
Bad harmony We're like bad harmony We are a couple wannabees Who do not know what they are doing
We're like bad harmony We're like bad harmony We are good company Going down the road to ruin
I hope we will better (x3)
Quotes: "'We're like bad harmony,' a really straight line like that, I would have never done that 10 years ago because I would have been too embarrassed. I would have been, 'Oh that's too hokey, it's too traditional or something, mainstream.' But now I'm definitely like a lot more tempted to see just how middle of the road can I be. What can I get away with and still satisfy my rock muse?" - Frank Black, Flagpole Magazine
