Panic – The Smiths

Panic on the streets of London Panic on the streets of Birmingham I wonder to myself Could life ever be sane again? The leeds side-streets that you slip down I wonder to myself Hopes may rise on the grasmere But honey pie, you’re not safe here So you run down To the safety of the town But there’s panic on the streets of Carlisle Dublin, Dundee, Humberside I wonder to myself Burn down the disco Hang the blessed DJ Because the music that they constantly play It says nothing to me about my life Hang the blessed DJ Because the […]

Paint a Vulgar Picture – The Smiths

At the record company meeting On their hands – a dead star And oh, the plans they weave And oh, the sickening greed At the record company party On their hands – a dead star The sycophantic slags all say : “I knew him first, and I knew him well” Re-issue! Re-package! Re-package! Re-evaluate the songs Double-pack with a photograph Extra track (and a tacky badge) A-list, playlist “Please them , please them !” “Please them !” (sadly, this was your life) But you could have said no If you’d wanted to You could have said no If you’d wanted […]

Stop Me If You Think You’ve Heard This One Before – The Smiths

Stop me, oh, stop me Stop me if you think that you’ve heard this one before Stop me, oh, stop me Stop me if you think that you’ve heard this one before Nothing’s changed I still love you, oh, I still love you Only slightly, only slightly less than I used to, my love I was delayed, I was way-laid An emergency stop I smelt the last ten seconds of life I crashed down on the crossbar And the pain was enough to make a shy, bald, Buddhist reflect And plan a mass murder Who said I’d lied to her?

I Started Something I Couldn’t Finish – The Smiths

The lanes were silent There was nothing, no one, nothing around for miles I doused our friendly venture With a hard-faced Three-word gesture I started something I forced you to a zone And you were clearly Never meant to go Hair brushed and parted Typical me, typical me Typical me I started something And now I’m not too sure I grabbed you by the guilded beams Uh, that’s what tradition means And I doused another venture With a gesture That was absolutely vile I started something I forced you to a zone And you were clearly Never meant to go […]

A Rush and a Push and the Land Is Ours – The Smiths

Oh hello I am the ghost of Troubled Joe Hung by his pretty white neck Some eighteen months ago I travelled to a mystical time zone And I missed my bed And I soon came home They said : “There’s too much caffeine In your bloodstream And a lack of real spice In your life” I said : “Leave me alone Because I’m alright, dad Surprised to still Be on my own…” Oh, but don’t mention love I’d hate the strain of the pain again A rush and a push and the land that We stand on is ours It […]

Vicar in a Tutu – The Smiths

I was minding my business Lifting some lead off The roof of the Holy Name church It was worthwhile living a laughable life To set my eyes on the blistering sight Of a Vicar in a tutu He’s not strange He just wants to live his life this way A scanty bit of a thing With a decorative ring That wouldn’t cover the head of a goose As Rose collects the money in a canister Who comes sliding down the bannister ? The Vicar in a tutu He’s not strange He just wants to live his life this way The […]

Cemetry Gates – The Smiths

A dreaded sunny day So I meet you at the cemetry gates Keats and Yeats are on your side A dreaded sunny day So I meet you at the cemetry gates Keats and Yeats are on your side While Wilde is on mine So we go inside and we gravely read the stones All those people, all those lives Where are they now? With loves, and hates And passions just like mine They were born And then they lived And then they died It seems so unfair I want to cry You say : “‘Ere thrice the sun done salutation […]
