[Verse 1]
She wears denim wherever she goes
Says she's gonna get some records by the Status Quo
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
Still, she won't be forced against her will
Says she don't do drugs, but she does the pill
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
[Chorus]
I didn't want to hurt you, oh yeah
I didn't want to hurt you, oh yeah
[Verse 2]
Says she likes my hair 'cause it's down my back
Says she likes the group 'cause we pull in the slack
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
When she's at the gig, she takes her car
And she'll drive us home if there isn't a bar
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
[Chorus]
I didn't want to hurt you, oh yeah
I didn't want to hurt you, oh yeah
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
I didn't want to hurt you, oh yeah
I didn't want to hurt you, oh yeah
[Outro]

The Concept was written by Norman George Blake.
The Concept was produced by Teenage Fanclub & Paul Chisholm & Don Fleming.
Teenage Fanclub released The Concept on Sat Oct 12 1991.
According to Norman Blake in 2015:
I think I just made it up about 20 minutes before recording the song. With that album we definitely wrote a lot of lyrics in the studio. And I think I just wanted to write something with a narrative, actually. And really, I’d come up with the first couple of lines...
According to Norman Blake in 2015:
We haven’t met them, sadly. We’re not massive fans of the band, but they had some good tunes. “Pictures of Matchstick Men,” that’s a good one. And “Rockin’ All Over the World”… actually that’s a John Fogerty song, isn’t it? Their version’s pretty good.
