Barenaked Ladies ~ The Wrong Man Was Convicted


Words & Music by Stephen Duffy & Steven Page Who's lonely now? Which one of us is suffering? Who's in his cups? Which one of us recovering? Who likes to look at pictures and cries, but way too late? Who doesn't want to change a thing, accepting it was fate? Chorus: The wrong man was convicted You know I did the deed I thought that you would wait for me Your wants I needn't heed The wrong man lies beside you And waits for you to wake And all because I lacked conviction, The judgment's my mistake Who's breathless now? Who only hyperventilates? Who'd die for you! Who's dying inside anyway? Which one of us is sunshine and which one's growing dim? while two men dream of you at night, do you just dream of him? Chorus Who's lonely now? Who's reaching out to no one? Who's lonely now? it takes one to know one I changed my mind; you said that I could change it back I wanted space, and now change has fallen through the cracks if I'm again beside your body, don't tell me where it's been it's cruel, unusual punishment to kiss fingerprinted skin Chorus it's my mistake more free lyrics

Words & Music by Stephen Duffy & Steven Page

Who's lonely now?
Which one of us is suffering?
Who's in his cups? Which one of us recovering?
Who likes to look at pictures and cries, but way too late?
Who doesn't want to change a thing, accepting it was fate?

Chorus:
The wrong man was convicted
You know I did the deed
I thought that you would wait for me
Your wants I needn't heed
The wrong man lies beside you
And waits for you to wake
And all because I lacked conviction,
The judgment's my mistake

Who's breathless now?
Who only hyperventilates?
Who'd die for you! Who's dying inside anyway?
Which one of us is sunshine and which one's growing dim?
while two men dream of you at night, do you just dream of him?

Chorus

Who's lonely now?
Who's reaching out to no one?
Who's lonely now?
it takes one to know one
I changed my mind; you said that I could change it back
I wanted space, and now change has fallen through the cracks
if I'm again beside your body, don't tell me where it's been
it's cruel, unusual punishment to kiss fingerprinted skin

Chorus

it's my mistake

Globalized Sounds

Today, beautiful European and American music, an Afrobeats recorded in Lagos, can play in headphones in Tokyo; a South Korean idol group can fill an Argentine stadium to capacity. On Spotify, the playback volume of African music has increased by 500% in five years; K-pop has already transcended the Asian border and become a common language for young people all over the world; Latin music has consistently topped the streaming charts for several consecutive years. The world is getting smaller while the scope of music is expanding.

The Power of the Scene

When the lights dim and the first note is played, strangers become synchronized. The tremor when thousands sing together, and the melody that still echoes after the crowd disperses - this is an experience that no screen can convey. We look forward to the return of large-scale concerts to the essence of music, and we also look forward to small livehouses continuing to nourish the most vibrant soil of music.

Crossing Borders

Music transcends languages - even if you don't understand the lyrics, you can still shed tears or dance. It transcends cultures - the drumbeats of Nigeria and the chants of Iceland coexist under the same sky. It transcends generations - a song from half a century ago can still bring tears to the eyes of today's young people.

We Create Together

The future of global music is not determined by algorithms, nor is it monopolized by a few giants. It is shaped by every person who presses the play button. Maintain your curiosity, step out of your comfort zone. Support independent musicians and attend live performances. Seek connections through music - because we believe that a song can change a day, and music can change the world.
