> I left the North
I traveled South I found a tiny house And I can't help the way I feel Oh yes, you can kick me And you can punch me And you can break my face But you won't change the way I feel 'Cause I love you Oh... And is it really so strange ? Oh, is it really so strange ? Oh, is it really so, really so strange ? I say NO, you say YES (and you will change your mind) I left the South I traveled North I got confused - I killed a horse I can't help the way I feel Oh yes, you can punch me And you can butt me And you can break my spine But you won't change the way I feel 'Cause I love you Oh ... And is it really so strange ? Oh, is it really so strange ? Oh, is it really so, really so strange ? I say NO, you say YES (But you will change your mind) I left the North again I traveled South again And I got confused - I killed a nun I CAN'T HELP THE WAY I FEEL I CAN'T HELP THE WAY I FEEL I CAN'T HELP THE WAY I FEEL (I lost my bag in Newport Pagnell) Why is the last mile the hardest mile ? My throat was dry, with the sun in my eyes And I realized, I realized I could never I could never, never, never, go back home again ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By MORRISSEY, STEVEN / MARR, JOHNNY <i>Lyrics © Warner/Chappell Music, Inc., Universal Music Publishing Group</i> |

Is it wrong to want to live on your own ?
No, it's not wrong - but I must know How can someone so young Sing words so sad ? Sheila take a, Sheila take a bow Boot the grime of this world in the crotch, dear And don't go home tonight Come out and find the one that you love and who loves you The one that you love and who loves you Oh ... Is it wrong not to always be glad ? No, it's not wrong - but I must add How can someone so young Sing words so sad ? Sheila take a, Sheila take a bow Boot the grime of this world in the crotch, dear And don't go home tonight Come out and find the one that you love and who loves you The one that you love and who loves you Take my hand and off we stride Oh, la ... You're a girl and I'm a boy La ... Take my hand and off we stride Oh, la ... I'm a girl and you're a boy La ... Sheila take a, Sheila take a bow La ... Throw your homework onto the fire Come out and find the one that you love Come out and find the one you love |

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 Shoplifters of the world Hand it over Hand it over Hand it over Learn to love me And assemble the ways Now, today, tomorrow, and always My only weakness is a listed crime But last night the plans of a future war Was all I saw on Channel Four Shoplifters of the world Unite and take over Shoplifters of the world Hand it over Hand it over Hand it over A heartless hand on my shoulder A push - and it's over Alabaster crashes down (Six months is a long time) Tried living in the real world Instead of a shell But before I began ... I was bored before I even began Shoplifters of the world Unite and take over Shoplifters of the world Unite and take over Shoplifters of the world Unite and take over Shoplifters of the world Take over |

Call me morbid, call me pale
I've spent six years on your trail Six long years On your trail Call me morbid, call me pale I've spent six years on your trail Six full years of my life on your trail And if you have five seconds to spare Then I'll tell you the story of my life : Sixteen, clumsy and shy I went to London and I I booked myself in at the why...W.C.A. I said : "I like it here - can I stay ? I like it here - can I stay ? Do you have a vacancy For a back-scrubber?" She was left behind, and sour And she wrote to me, equally dour She said : "In the days when you were Hopelessly poor I just liked you more..." And if you have five seconds to spare Then I'll tell you the story of my life : Sixteen, clumsy and shy I went to London and I I booked myself in at the why...W.C.A. I said : "I like it here - can I stay ? I like it here - can I stay ? And do you have a vacancy For a back-scrubber ?" Call me morbid, call me pale I've spent too long on your trail Far too long Chasing your tail Oh... And if you have five seconds to spare Then I'll tell you the story of my life : Sixteen, clumsy and shy That's the story of my life Sixteen, clumsy and shy The story of my life That's the story of my life That's the story of my life That's the story of my life The story of my life That's the story of my life That's the story of my life That's the story of my life That's the story of my life That's the story of my life That's the story... |

Smoke
Lingers 'round your fingers Train Heave on - to Euston Do you think you've made The right decision this time ? Oh ... You left Your tired family grieving And you think they're sad because you're leaving But did you see Jealousy in the eyes Of the ones who had to stay behind ? And do you think you've made The right decision this time ? You left Your girlfriend on the platform With this really ragged notion that you'll return But she knows That when he goes He really goes And do you think you've made The right decision this time ? |

She says : "He never really looks at me I give him every opportunity In the room downstairs He sat and stared In the room downstairs He sat and stared I'll never make that mistake again !" I'll never make that mistake again I'll never make that mistake again Boy afraid Prudence never pays And everything she wants costs money "But she doesn't even like me ! And I know because she said so In the room downstairs She sat and stared In the room downstairs She sat and stared I'll never make that mistake again !" |

The rain falls hard on a humdrum town
This town has dragged you down Oh, the rain falls hard on a humdrum town This town has dragged you down Oh, no, and everybody's got to live their life And God knows I've got to live mine God knows I've got to live mine William, William it was really nothing William, William it was really nothing It was your life ... How can you stay with a fat girl who'll say : "Oh ! Would you like to marry me ? "And if you like you can buy the ring" She doesn't care about anything Would you like to marry me ? And if you like you can buy the ring I don't dream about anyone - except myself ! Oh, William, William it was really nothing William, William |

I was happy in the haze of a drunken hour
But heaven knows I'm miserable now I was looking for a job, and then I found a job And heaven knows I'm miserable now In my life Why do I give valuable time To people who don't care if I live or die ? Two lovers entwined pass me by And heaven knows I'm miserable now I was looking for a job, and then I found a job And heaven knows I'm miserable now In my life Oh, why do I give valuable time To people who don't care if I live or die ? What she asked of me at the end of the day Caligula would have blushed "You've been in the house too long" she said And I (naturally) fled In my life Why do I smile At people who I'd much rather kick in the eye ? I was happy in the haze of a drunken hour But heaven knows I'm miserable now "You've been in the house too long" she said And I (naturally) fled In my life Why do I give valuable time To people who don't care if I live or die |

Golden lights displaying your name
Golden lights it's a terrible shame But oh my darling Why did you change? Boy in a million, idol, a big star I didn't tell you how great you were I didn't grovel and scream And rip your brand new jacket at the seams You made a record, they liked your singing All of a sudden the phone stops ringing Ah ... I never thought that you would let The glory make you forget Golden lights displaying your name Golden lights it's a terrible shame But oh my darling Why did you change? Top ten idol, king of your age Who do you turn to when you're backstage? Don't you remember you once knew a girl You loved her more than the world Is life always like this, brother? Good for one side but bad for another I must put you behind me tonight 'Cause you belong to the lights Those golden lights displaying your name Golden lights it's a terrible shame But oh my darling Why did you change? Oh, oh my darling Why? Why did you change? Oh... |

A sad fact widely known
The most impassionate song To a lonely soul Is so easily outgrown But dont forget the songs That made you smile And the songs that made you cry When you lay in awe On the bedroom floor And said : oh, oh, smother me mother... No ... Rubber ring, rubber ring, rubber ring, rubber ring La ... The passing of time And all of its crimes Is making me sad again The passing of time And all of its sickening crimes Is making me sad again But dont forget the songs That made you cry And the songs that saved your life Yes, youre older now And youre a clever swine But they were the only ones who ever stood by you The passing of time leaves empty lives Waiting to be filled (the passing ...) The passing of time Leaves empty lives Waiting to be filled Im here with the cause Im holding the torch In the corner of your room Can you hear me ? And when youre dancing and laughing And finally living Hear my voice in your head And think of me kindly No ... Rubber ring, rubber ring, rubber ring, rubber ring La ... No ... Rubber ring, rubber ring, rubber ring, rubber ring Do you Love me like you used to ? Oh ... Rubber ring, rubber ring, rubber ring, rubber ring La ... Youre clever Everybodys clever nowadays Youre clever Everybodys clever nowadays You are sleeping You do not want to believe You are sleeping You do not want to believe You are sleeping You do not want to believe You are sleeping |

Hand in glove
The sun shines out of our behinds No, it's not like any other love This one is different - because it's us Hand in glove We can go wherever we please And everything depends upon How near you stand to me And if the people stare Then the people stare Oh, I really don't know and I really don't care Kiss My Shades Hand in glove The Good People laugh Yes, we may be hidden by rags But we've something they'll never have Hand in glove The sun shines out of our behinds Yes, we may be hidden by rags But we've something they'll never have And if the people stare Then the people stare Oh, I really don't know and I really don't care Kiss My Shades ... oh ... So, hand in glove I stake my claim I'll fight to the last breath If they dare touch a hair on your head I'll fight to the last breath For the Good Life is out there somewhere So stay on my arm, you little charmer But I know my luck too well Yes, I know my luck too well And I'll probably never see you again I'll probably never see you again I'll probably never see you again Oh ... |

All the lies that you make up
What's at the back of your mind? Oh, your face I can see And it's desperately kind But what's at the back of your mind? Two icy-cold hands conducting the way It's the Eskimo blood in my veins Amid concrete and clay And general decay Nature must still find a way So ignore all the codes of the day Let your juvenile influences sway This way and that way This way, that way God, how sex implores you To let yourself lose yourself Stretch out and wait Stretch out and wait Let your puny body, lie down, lie down As we lie, you say As we lie, you say Stretch out and... Stretch out and wait Stretch out and wait Let your puny body lie down, lie down As we lie, you say : Will the world end in the night time? (I really don't know) Or will the world end in the day time? (I really don't know) And is there any point ever having children? Oh, I don't know All I do know is we're here and it's now So...stretch out and wait Stretch out and wait There is no debate, no debate, no debate How can you consciously contemplate When there's no debate, no debate? Stretch out and wait Stretch out and wait Stretch out and wait Wait Wait Wait Wait Oh... |
