Morrissey все тексты (слова) песен, переводы, видео, клипы

Oh ...
I have been smashed again
With the men from the
Old Valhalla Road Crematorium
Boring men with the same old patter

I am a simple man
Not much to gain or lose

All the lazy dykes, Cross armed at the palms, Then legs astride their bikes, Indigo burns on their arms
One sweet day, An emotional whirl, You will be good to yourself, And you'll come and join the girls

All the lazy dykes, They pity how you live, Just "somebody's wife", You give, and you give,
And you give, and you give, Give, and you give
And one sweet day , An emotional whirl, You will be good to yourself, And you'll come and join the girls

Touch me, Squeeze me, Hold me too tightly, And when you look at me you actually see me

ALL YOU NEED IS ME

You hiss and groan and you constantly moan
But you don't ever go away
That's because
All you need is me

ALMA MATTERS
(Morrissey/Whyte)

So, the choice I have made
may seem strange to you
but who asked you, anyway?
it's my life
to wreck

ALSATIAN COUSIN
(Morrissey/Stephen Street)

Were you and he Lovers?
and would you say so if you were?
on a forecourt
on a Friday
passing my way

AMMUNITION
(Morrissey/Boorer)

I know these roads
each ridge
and narrow bridge
each cheveron
enticing me on

ANGEL, ANGEL, DOWN WE GO TOGETHER
(Morrissey/Stephen Street)

Angel, Angel
don't take your life tonight
I know they take
and that they take in turn
and they give you nothing real

Art-Hounds
(Morrissey/Boz Boorer)

Art-Hounds look like nothing
so Art-Hounds write something
and those that do are judged by those
who tried and found they couldn't do

I'm calling you from the foyer
Of the Sands Hotel
Where the men and the women
Are acquainted quite well

And the drunkards keep on drinking
And oh, my room is cold
I'm disputing the bill

At last I am born
Historians note
I am finally born
I once used to chase affection withdrawn
But now I just sit back and yawn
Because I am born, born, born
Look at me now
From difficult child to spectral hand to Claude Brasseur-oh-blah blah blah

I found a picture of you, oh oh oh oh
It hijacked my world at night
From a place in the past
We've been cast out of, oh oh oh oh
Now we're back in the fight
Yes we're back on the chain gang
Whoa, back on the chain gang
A circumstance beyond our control, oh oh oh oh

BECAUSE OF MY POOR EDUCATION
(Morrissey-Whyte)

Because of my poor education
I don't expect your invitation
a ship lost inches away from the bay

Because of my poor education

BILLY BUDD
(Morrissey / Alain Whyte)

Say, Billy Budd
so you think you should?
oh, everyone's laughing
say, Billy Budd
so you think that you should?

The one I love is standing near
The one I love is everywhere
I can woo you, I can amuse you
But there is nothing I can do to make you mine
Black cloud, Black cloud

The one I love roosts in the mind
can snap this spell or, increase hell

CERTAIN PEOPLE I KNOW
(Morrissey / Alain Whyte)

I take the cue from
certain people I know
I use the cue
and then I hand it on to you

COME BACK TO CAMDEN
(Morrissey/Boorer)

There is something I wanted to tell you
It's so funny you'll kill yourself laughing
but then I, I look around
and I remember that I am alone
alone

MY LOVE LIFE
(Morrissey / Mark E. Nevin)

Come on to my house
come on and do something new
I know you love one person so
why can't you love two?

COSMIC DANCER
(Marc Bolan)

I was dancing when I was twelve
I was dancing when I was twelve
I was dancing when I was... oh
I was dancing when I was... oh

Darling, I hug a pillow in absence of you

Darling, I hug a pillow to replace your face
Loving you is a trauma no one else should face
Or sit still for

Why can't you give me some physical love?
Why can't you give me some physical love?

I am walking through Rome
With my heart on a string
Dear God, please help me

And I am so very tired
Of doing the right thing
Dear God, please help me

DISAPPOINTED
(Morrissey/Street)

Our unsleepable friend
gets the message on an ill wind
'all your friends and your foes
would rather die than have to touch you'
TO SAY THE LEAST: I'm truly disappointed

Compare the best of their days
With the worst of your days
You won't win
With your standards so high
And your spirits so low
At least remember ...
This is you on a bad day, you on a pale day

DRIVE-IN SATURDAY
(David Bowie)

Recorded Live At The Orpheum Theater, Omaha, Nebraska, 11th May, 2007

Let me put my arms around your head
it's hot let's go to bed
and don't forget to turn on the light

DRIVING YOUR GIRLFRIEND HOME
(Morrissey/Nevin)

I'm driving
your girlfriend home
and she's saying
how she never chose you
"turn left", she says

Earth is the loneliest planet of all
Earth is the loneliest planet of all
Day after day you say: “One day...one day”
Day after day you say: “One day...one day”
But you’re in the wrong place
And you’ve got the wrong face
And humans are not really very humane
And Earth is the loneliest planet of all

East West
Over the ocean
Perpetual motion
Traveling around

No rest
Singing and playing
Night out and day in

Trudging slowly over wet sand
Back to the bench where your clothes were stolen
This is a coastal town
That they forgot to close down
Armagedon - come armagedon come armagedon come
Everyday is like sunday
Everyday is silent and grey
Hide on a promanade

You have never been in love,
Until you've seen the stars,
reflect in the resevoirs

And you have never been in love,
Until you've seen the dawn rise,
behind the home for the blind

Oh, you silly old man
You silly old man
You're making a fool of yourself
So get off the stage

You silly old man
In your misguided trousers
With your mascara and your Fender guitar

GIRL LEAST LIKELY TO
(Morrissey/Rourke)

How many times have I been around?
recycled papers paving the ground
well, she lives for the written word
and people come second, or possibly third
and there is no style, but I say "well done"

First day with the jar
You find
Everyone lies
First day with the jar
You find
Everyone lies, nobody minds

Everyone lies

Here is London, giddy of London
Is it home of the free -
Or what?

Can you squeeze me
Into an empty page of your diary
And psychologically save me?
I\'ve got faith in you

HAPPY LOVERS AT LAST UNITED
(Morrissey/Street)
Outtake from 'Sunday' sessions

Happy lovers
back together
and I do feel proud
Happy lovers

HAVE-A-GO MERCHANT
(Morrissey / Alain Whyte)

Have-a-go
when the pubs all close
and have-a-go
when they open

HEIR APPARENT
(Morrissey/A.Whyte)

I came back to my old city
With fierce determination
And I couldn't find my way out of the station

It's all changed

A bond of trust
Has been abused
Something of value
May be lost
Give up your job
Squander your cash - be rash
Just hold on to your friends

She told me she loved me
Which means
She must be insane
I've had my face dragged in
Fifteen miles of shit
And I do not, And I do not
And I do not like it
So how can anybody say

I AM HATED FOR LOVING
(Morrissey/Whyte)

I am hated for loving
I am hated for loving
anonymous call, a poison pen
a brick in the small of the back again
I still don't belong

I am not a dog on a chain, I use my own brain
I can turn the conversation off, I'm too clever to be robbed
I am not a dog on a chain, thanks all the same
I have patience and I have time, both of which are mine

I hear a call, I hear a cry
I raise my voice, I have no choice
I raise my hand, I hammer twice

Morrissey - I Am Two People [B-side, 2004]

I love you
It's murder

I am two people
One you know
but don't like

A wretched outcast with no point of view
What could I do, just military servants
I carry out the powerful vulgarian view
I scatter glue, do as I say or I'll scatter you
Oh no no no no no no
You can't blame me
I'm just an innocent soldier
There would be no war if not for me

Staring in the window of the shop that never opens
Planning my selection from all the treats inside
Should I take as I desire - oh shall I, oh shall I ?
Or should I hang around to be enticed inside ?

I'm trying to explain to myself
I can have both
I'm trying to explain to the voice inside

I DON'T MIND IF YOU FORGET ME
(Morrissey/Stephen Street)

I don't mind
I don't mind if you forget me
having learned my lesson
I never left an impression on anyone
so now you send me your hardened 'regards'

I HAVE FORGIVEN JESUS
(Morrissey/Whyte)

I was a good kid
I wouldn’t do you no harm
I was a nice kid
with a nice paper-round
Forgive me any pain

I KNOW IT'S GONNA HAPPEN SOMEDAY
(Morrissey/Nevin)

My love, wherever you are
whatever you are
don't lose faith
I know it's gonna happen someday
to you

A child with a curious face
A man with sullen ways
Oh, I know very well how I got my name

You think you were my first love
You think you were my first love, but you're wrong
You were the only one
Who's come and gone

I WILL SEE YOU IN FAR-OFF PLACES
(Morrissey/Whyte)

Nobody knows what human life is
why we come, why we go
so why then do I know
that I will see you
I will see you in far-off places?

Again
I lay awake
And I cried because of waste
I'd love to
(But only with you, Only with you)
Oh, but time is gonna wipe us out

There, I've said it loud and clear

I'LL NEVER BE ANYBODY'S HERO NOW
(Morrissey/Whyte)

Warm lights from
the grand houses blind me
haves cannot stand have-nots
and my love is under the ground
my one true love is under the ground

On returning, I can't believe this world is still turning, The pressure's on,
Because the pleasure hasn't gone
And I'm, Not sorry for, For the things I've done
And I'm, Not looking for, Just anyone

On competing, Oh, when will this tired heart stop beating?, It's all a game,
Existence is only a game
And I'm, Not sorry for, For the things I've done

Could this be an arm around my waist?
well, surely the hand contains a knife?
It's been so all of my life
Why change now? It hasn't!

Now this might surprise you, but
I find I'm OK by myself
And I don't need you

In the absence of your love
And in the absence of human touch
I have decided I’m throwing my arms
around all of paris because only stone and steel
accept my love

In the absence of your smiling face
I traveled all over the place

I'VE CHANGED MY PLEA TO GUILTY
(Morrissey/Nevin)

I'm standing in the dock
with my innocent hand on my heart
I've changed my plea
I've changed my plea to guilty
because freedom is wasted on me

Run, run young man through the glen
Run, young woman through the glen
See if I care, see if I care, see if I care
See if I care, See if I care, see if I care

Mmm...

If you don't like me, then don't look at me

Armed with wealth and good health
The best of health
In the future when all's well
I will lie down and be counted
In the future when all's well

I thank you
I thank you with all of my heart

The Arab spring called us all
The people win when the dictators fall
I heard a bang, and an almighty crack
And I just want my face in your lap
The people sing when the warlords all burn
Do not feel sad, it's simply their turn
They tried to wipe us clean off the map
And I just want my face in your lap

INTERESTING DRUG
(Morrissey/Street)

There are some bad people on the rise
there are some bad people on the rise
they're saving their own skins by
ruining people's lives
bad, bad people on the rise

INTERLUDE
(De La Rue / Shaper)

Time is like a dream
And now, for a time, you are mine
Let's hold fast to the dream
That tastes and sparkles like wine

Irish blood, English heart, This I'm made of
There is no one on earth I'm afraid of
And no regime can buy or sell me

I've been dreaming of a time when
To be English is not to be baneful
To be standing by the flag not feeling shameful, Racist or partial

Irish blood, English heart, This I'm made of
There is no one on earth I'm afraid of
And no regime can buy or sell me

I've been dreaming of a time when
To be English is not to be baneful
To be standing by the flag not feeling shameful, Racist or partial

When he first cried
His mother died
I had tried to be his guide
When he was born I was too young
The father searches for the son
In Istanbul
Give him back to me
Oh, Istanbul

I can kill standing still
It’s easy
I can scare with a stare
It’s easy

Hey Ringo, It’s sad though
Because it’s hard to walk tall
When you’re small

Your voice it might say 'no'
but the heart has a will of its own
your voice it might say 'no'
but the heart has a heart of its own
It's not your birthday anymore
there's no need to be kind to you
and the will to see you smile and belong has now gone
It's not your birthday anymore

Oh, you look so tired
mouth slack and wide
ill-housed and ill-advised
your face is as mean
as your life has been

crash into my arms
- I want you

Jacky's only happy when she's up on the stage
I make this claim, now let me explain
Since she lost you
Jacky's only happy when she's up on the stage
Free in the truth of make-believe
Since she lost you

She is determined to prove

At Jim Jim Falls
I fall in love
At Jim Jim Falls
I fell up from Hell

If you're gonna jump then jump
Don't think about it
If you're gonna run home and cry

Julie In The Weeds
(Morrissey/Boz Boorer)

Julie lie down
in the weeds and see
something new
something new

KICK THE BRIDE DOWN THE AISLE
(Morrissey/Jesse Tobias)

Kick the bride down the aisle
and make no mistake
it's the best you can do
for everyone's sake

KING LEER
(Morrissey/Nevin)

Your boyfriend, he
went down on one knee
well, could it be
he's only got one knee?
I tried to surprise you

KISS ME A LOT
(Morrissey/Jesse Tobias)

Bastille, mausoleum
stock-yard, church yard
your mammy's backyard
I don't care when or where
I just care that you're there

Last night I dreamt
That somebody loved me
No hope, no harm
Just another false alarm

Last night I felt
Real arms around me
No hope, no harm

Last night I dreamt
That somebody loved me
No hope, no harm
Just another false alarm

Last night I felt
Real arms around me
No hope, no harm

LATE NIGHT, MAUDLIN STREET
(Morrissey/Stephen Street)

(Winter coming
winter push on
winter is so long
winter moves on)

There's a place in the sun for anyone
Who has the will
To chase one
And I think I found mine
Yes, I do believe I have found mine

So, close your eyes
And think of someone you physically admire

Let the right one in
Let the old dreams die
Let the wrong ones go
They cannot
They cannot
They cannot do what you want them to do
Oh ...

LIFE IS A PIGSTY
(Morrissey/Whyte)

It's the same old sos
but with brand new broken fortunes
and once again I turn to you
once again I do, I turn to you

The world you chose has a practical vein
But I read much more into your name
Lifeguard.
Patrolling the lenght and the breadth of your pool
I call your name from the vestibule
Lifeguard

Lifeguard, save me from life

Songwriters: MORRISSEY, STEVEN / BOORER, MARTIN JAMES

Always looking for attention
Always needs to be mentioned
Who does she
Think she should be ?
The shrill cry through darkening air
Doesn't she know he's

LUCKY LISP
(Morrissey/Street)

When your gift unfurls
when your Talent becomes apparent
I will roar from the stalls
I will gurgle from the circle
The Saints smile shyly down on you

MALADJUSTED
(Morrissey/Boorer)

“ON THIS GLORIOUS OCCASION, OF THE SPLENDID DEFEAT”
- Anthony Newley

I wanna start from
before the beginning

MARGARET ON THE GUILLOTINE
(Morrissey/Stephen Street)

The kind people
have a wonderful dream
Margaret on the guillotine
cause people like you
make me feel so tired

Moonriver
Wider than a mile
Ill be crossing you in style
Someday

Oh, dreammaker
You heartbreaker
Wherever youre going

These tears I'm wailing
I spill not without reason
remove them my dearest love
my...........
Take me, to the place I've been dreaming of
Where the grotesquely lonely meet the grotesquely lonely
and they whisper
just very softly

MY LIFE IS A SUCCESSION OF PEOPLE SAYING GOODBYE
(Morrissey-Whyte)

My life is an endless succession of
people saying goodbye
my life is an endless succession of
people saying goodbye
and what's left for me?

My life is an endless succession of
people saying goodbye
my life is an endless succession of
people saying goodbye
and what's left for me?
what's left for me?

At one time the future did stretch out before me

Aah
Come on to my house
Come on and do something new
I know you love one person so
Why can't you love two?

Aah
Give a little something

David, the wind blows
The wind blows ...
Bits of your life away
Your friends all say ...
"Where is our boy ? Oh, we've lost our boy"
But they should know
Where you've gone
Because again and again you've explained that

NEAL CASSADY DROPS DEAD
(Morrissey/Gustavo Manzur)

Neal Cassady drops dead
and Allen Ginsberg’s tears shampoo his beard
Neal Cassady drops dead
and Allen Ginsberg’s lips tighten and thin
Neal Cassady drops dead

Never again will I be a twin
The operation went well, but the patient died

Never again will there be a smile
To wipe off my face once it's too much
In a twin-like realm, in the plastic arts
Of falling in love, what a joke that was
What a joke that was

Nine times fined
Never mind
Things can only improve
We are just stood here
Waiting for the next great wound

And we just can't wait to make more mistakes
And to fluff our breaks, and to stuff our faces with cake

Sleep on and dream of Love
Because it's the closest you will
Get to love
Poor twisted child
So ugly, so ugly
Poor twisted child
Oh hug me, oh hug me
One November

There's gonna be some trouble
A whole house will need re-building
And everyone I love in the house
Will recline on an analyst's couch quite soon
Your father cracks a joke
And in the usual way
Empties the room
Tell all of my friends

OBOE CONCERTO
(Morrissey/Boz Boorer)

“and he spoke with his voice
while he was talking
with his mouth”

Oboe concerto

Always be careful
When you abuse the one you love
The hour or the day, no one can tell
But one day goodbye will be farewell
And you will never see the one you love again
You will never see the one you love again

I have been thinking, what, with my final brain cell

OUIJA BOARD, OUIJA BOARD
(Morrissey/Street)

Ouija board
would you work for me?
I have got to say Hello to an old friend
Ouija board, ouija board, ouija board
would you work for me?

Off the rails I was and
Off the rails
I was happy to stay
Get out of my way
On the rack I was
Easy meat, and a reasonably good buy
A reasonably good buy

READER MEET AUTHOR
(Morrissey/Boorer)

You don't know a thing about their lives
they live where you wouldn't dare to drive
you shake as you think of how they sleep
but you write as if you all lie side by side

He's romancing you
And chancing his arm
He'll be here
Smiling on time
He's romancing you
And chancing his arm
He'll be here
Smiling on time

Scandinavia
(Morrissey/Boz Boorer)

I was bored
in a fjord
and I curse the heart and soul of Scandinavia
let the people burn
let their children cry and die in blind asylums

I am a poor freezingly cold soul
So far from where
I intended to go
Scavenging through life's very constant lulls
So far from where I'm determined to go

Wish I knew the way to reach the one I love
There is no way ...

Salaud Morisset, Dégeulasse, Tes Jours sont comptés Morisset.
Il va t'arriver du mouron, Morisset!

Shame is the name

Hey boy - are you happy to be
a dim-ass teen on the spree?
You get drunk all day

Learn to love me
Assemble the ways
Now, today, tomorrow and always
My only weakness is a list of crime
My only weakness is ... well, never mind, never mind

Oh, shoplifters of the world
Unite and take over

Sing your life
Any fool can think up words that rhyme
Many others do
Why don't you?
Do you want to?
Sing your life
Walk right up to the microphone
And name

SMILER WITH KNIFE
(Morrissey/Jesse Tobias)

See in me the side of you
that sometimes makes you jump with fright
smiler with knife, it's your big night

Sinking bed all warm and clean

I'm doing very well
I can block out the present and the past now
I know by now you think I should have straightened myself out
Thank you, drop dead

Oh, something is squeezing my skull
Something I can barely describe
There is no love in modern life

Legalized theft
Leaves me bereft
I get it straight in the neck
(Somehow expecting no less)
A court of justice
With no use for Truth
Lawyer ...liar
Lawyer ...liar

You were a boy before you became a man
I don't see the joy
And you ran with your pals in the sun
You turned around and they were gone
Again ...

A sick boy should be treated
So easily defeated

SPRING-HEELED JIM
(Morrissey/Boorer)

Spring-heeled Jim winks an eye
he'll ''do", he'll never be "done to"
he takes on whoever flew through
"well, it's the normal thing to do"

STAIRCASE AT THE UNIVERSITY
(Morrissey/Boz Boorer)

March, April, May
she crammed night and day
I hadn't seen her smile in a while
March, April, May
she crammed night and day

Bending the rules of a late night card game
where the loser removes an item of clothing
your treading each deal, so eargings and grey
have a shufty over your shoulder well its a shady game
and i want to lose
oh please let me lose
oh please let me lose
its nothing to you

Such a little thing
Such a little thing
But the difference it made was grave
There you go
Wielding a bicycle chain
Oh, why won't you change ?
Change and be nicer ?

Why do you come here ?
And why do you hang around ?
I'm so sorry
I'm so sorry

Why do you come here
When you know it makes things hard for me ?
When you know, oh

SWEETIE-PIE
(Morrissey-Farrell)

Sweetie-pie, I've fallen in love
and the joke is on me
and the sun's given up
I'm depending on you
to see I get safely to

Police car with a screaming siren
Pneumatic drill on ripped-up concrete
Baby wails, a stray dog howling
Brakes screech as lamp light blinking

That's Entertainment
That's Entertainment

I was wasting my time
Trying to fall in love
Disappointment came to me and
Booted me and bruised and hurt me

But that's how people grow up
That's how people grow up

Mad in Madrid
Ill in Seville
Lonely in Barcelona
Then someone told you and you cheer
Hooray, hooray
The bullfighter dies
Hooray, hooray
The bullfighter dies

The edges are no, no longer parallel
The edges are no, no longer parallel
And there is no law of averages here
If you feel down
Then you're bound to stay down
All of the things you said
So meaningful
They are all so suddenly meaningless

THE LAST OF THE FAMOUS INTERNATIONAL PLAYBOYS
(Morrissey/Street)

Dear hero imprisoned
with all the new crimes
that you are perfecting
oh I can't help quoting you
'cause everything that you said rings true

THE LAZY SUNBATHERS
(Morrissey/Whyte)

A world war
was announced
days ago
but they didn't know
the lazy sunbathers

The more you ignore me
the closer I get
you're wasting your time
the more you ignore me
the closer I get
you're wasting your time

I will be

THE MORE YOU IGNORE ME, THE CLOSER I GET
(Morrissey/Boorer)

The more you ignore me
the closer I get
you're wasting your time
the more you ignore me
the closer I get

THE ORDINARY BOYS

Ordinary boys, happy knowing nothing
happy being no one, but themselves
Ordinary girls, supermarket clothes
who think it's very clever to be cruel to you
for you were so different
you stood all alone

(Morrissey-Boorer-Day)

Six filthy children
From six absent fathers

And then you turn
To us for succour
Because you think

THE TEACHERS ARE AFRAID OF THE PUPILS
(Morrissey/Boorer)

There's too many people
planning your downfall
when your spirit's on trial
these nights can be frightening
sleep transports sadness

I am a sleuth, I dig up the truth
I ferret the facts, even when there are none
A silent child, an elegant youth
This led me to find the truth about Ruth

Ruth is John
Ruth is John
We all do what we can

You must be wondering how, the boy next door turned out
Have a care, but don t stare because he s still there
Demented policemen, policemen, silly willy taxmen, uniformed whores
They who wish to hurt you, they work within the law,
This world is full of, so full of crashing bores
And I must be one cos no one ever turns to me to say take me in your arms
Take me in your arms, and love me

You must be wondering how
The boy next door turned out
Have a care, but don't stare
Because he's still there
Lamenting policewomen, policemen
Silly women, taxmen, uniformed whores
They who wish to hurt you
Work within the law

The youngest was the most loved
The youngest was the shielded
We kept him from the world's glare
And he turned into a killer
Retrouss nose
Turned up and mischievous
Forget-me-not eyes that cried if we ever left his side
There is no such thing in life as normal

Take me out tonight
where there's music and there's people
who are young and alive
driving in your car
I never never want to go home
because I havent got one
anymore
take me out tonight

Now, there
There speaks a true friend
There speaks a friend for life

You told me all the things
That you think are wrong with me
I just wish you'd stayed around and helped me put them right
But nevertheless :

THERE'S A PLACE IN HELL FOR ME AND MY FRIENDS
(Morrissey/Nevin)

There is a place
reserved
for me and my friends
and when we go
we all will go

TO ME YOU ARE A WORK OF ART
(Morrissey/Whyte)

I live a life
I feel the pain
to sing this song
to tell the tale
I wish I’d never even heard the song

Tomorrow
Will it really come?
And if it does come
Will I still be Human?
All I ask of you is one thing that you never do

Would you put your arms around me?
(I won't tell anyone)

It's hard, but try
It's hard, but try
For once, just for once
Just for once
Leave all your hate behind you
It's still all so strange and obscene
For you to look and see one who is real
And who feels life

Trouble loves me
trouble needs me
two things
more than you do
or would attempt to
So, console me
otherwise, hold me
just when it seems like

I've come to wish you an unhappy birthday
I've come to wish you an unhappy birthday
because you're evil
and you lie
and if you should die
I may feel slightly sad
(but I won't cry)
Loved and lost

Used to be a sweet boy
Holding so tightly
To Daddy's hand
But that was all
In some distant land
Blazer and tie
And a big bright healthy smile
Used to make all

WE HATE IT WHEN OUR FRIENDS BECOME SUCCESSFUL
(Morrissey/Whyte)

We hate it when our friends become successful
we hate it when our friends become successful
oh, look at those clothes
Now look at that face, it's so old
and such a video

Names, secret names
But never in my favour
But when all is said and done
It's you I love

Cold loving prose
We stole each other's clothes
But when all is said and done

When last I spoke to Carol I said:
"I can't pretend it gets easier."
She said: "I've hung on, I have edged
Along this narrow ledge
Since the day I was born in 1975."

"I can't pretend I feel love for you."

4am and once again
I am asked to leave this club in Tel Aviv
It's 4am and once again
I am asked to leave this club in Tel Aviv, oh

Everything I know deserts me now
When you open your legs
Everything I know deserts me now

WIDE TO RECEIVE
(Morrissey/Cobrin)

Download something
useful, or useless
because I'm lying here
wide to receive
almost anything

I'm writing this to say

Will undoubtedly die - alone

I'm writing this to say
In a gentle way

WORLD PEACE IS NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS
(Morrissey/Boz Boorer)

World peace is none of your business
you must not tamper with arrangements
work hard and sweetly pay your taxes
never asking “what for?”
ooh you poor little fool

Yes, I am blind
No, I can't see
The good things
Just the bad things, oh...

Yes, I am blind
No, I can't see
There must be something

Pasolini is me,
Accattone, you'll be,
I entered nothing and nothing entered me,
'till you came with the key,
and you did your best but

As I live and breathe,
You have killed me,

The whispering, May hurt you, But the printed word might kill you
The whispering, May hurt you, But the printed word might kill you
So don't let the blue, The blue eyes fool you
They're just gelignite, Loaded and aiming right between your eyes
CDs and T-shirts, promos and God knows, You know I couldn't last, Someone please take me home

The teenagers, Who love you, They will wake up, yawn and kill you
The teenagers, Who love you, They will wake up, yawn and kill you

With the world's fate
Resting on your shoulder
You're gonna need
Someone on your side

You can't do it by yourself
Any longer
You're gonna need

YOU'RE THE ONE FOR ME, FATTY
(Morrissey/Whyte)

You're the one for me, Fatty
you're the one I really, really love
and I will stay
promise you'll say
if I'm in your way
