Argybargy is a 1980 album by the British New Wave group Squeeze. The song order was changed slightly for the American release, with "If I Didn't Love You" moved up to the beginning of Side Two (track 6). It represented a leap from Cool for Cats in its emphasis less on English lad-ship and more on musical quality.
In 1997, the CD was released in the UK with two bonus tracks, as part of the Six of One... box set. The set included the band's first six studio albums, each digitally remastered. These CDs were made available for individual purchase in 1998.
