Do You Know Me? (I Don't Think So)

Band songlist

Info

Do you know me? (also known as Do you know me? (I don't think so)) is a B Side track to Babyshambles' fourth single, Albion, and was also released on their B Sides album, exclusive to America. Do You Know Me originates from mid-2003, as the track was first recorded by Doherty's former band, The Libertines, during their Babyshambles sessions.

Other notable versions of the song include a recording by Babyshambles that was intended to be included on their debut album, Down in Albion. It didn't, however, end up on the final album track listing. The version recorded during the Down in Albion sessions has since been leaked onto the internet and is available to download from various websites. Do You Know Me has also been recorded during Babyshambles' Diamond Liner sessions (which Peter Perrett produced), and it was recorded for Zane Lowe's Radio 1 show.

Lyrics

Do you know me? I don't think so!
Do you know me? I don't think so!
Try romanticize a dark and gloomy past
Trying to escape from the underclass
You darkened my bright and beautiful day
You're breaking my heart in every way
And tell me everything is dandy and fine
You're no friend of mine

I took you in and you stole from me
But you still got everything I need
You're walking so tall, you're looking so mean
You're walking so tall, man, you look so mean
But you tell me everything is dandy and fine
You're no friend of mine

Oh they think they know you
Yeah they think they know but they only see one side
They say they know you but how can they know you?
They dont see the Jekyl they just see the Hyde

Do you know me? I don't think so!
Do you know me? I don't think so!
Why try romanticize a dark and gloomy past
Trying to escape from the other class
You darkened the bright and beautiful day
You're fucking up my life in every way
And tell me everything's dandy and fine
You're no friend of mine, you're no friend of mine
But it will change in about five minutes time
You good friend of mine
