The Best Smiths Lyric(s)

I still love the Church, B.E.R.
Lots even.

Smiths lyrics:
The double decker bus one. I agree.

"16 clumsy and shy
I went to London and I
Booked myself in at the Y...
...WCA
I said 'I like it here can I stay?
And do you have a vacancy for a back scrubber?'"

"How can you stay with a fat girl who'll say
'would you like to marry me, and if you'd like you can buy the ring'
she doesn't care about anything."

Brett Eugene Ralph wrote:"I am the sun / And the air / Of a shyness that is criminally vulgar." At seventeen or so, I thought was pretty psychedelic.



it's "i am the son and the heir". pesky homonyms...

less psychedelic, but i think it makes more sense.

Throw your home work onto the fire/ Come out and find the one who you love and who loves you

and, of course:

Don't say motherfucker, motherfucker/ Don't wipe your sole on the curb/ Little puppy needs a guiding hand to rub his face in the turd
You call me a hater like that's a bad thing

Here you go Bradley!
SOOOOOOO Gaye.

yet such a killer riff.


All the streets are crammed with things
Eager to be held
I know what hands are for
And I'd like to help myself
You ask me the time
But I sense something more
And I would like to give
What I think you're asking for
You handsome devil
Oh, you handsome devil

Let me get my hands
On your mammary gland
And let me get your head
On the conjugal bed
I say, I say, I say


I crack the whip
And you skip
But you deserve it
You deserve it


A boy in the bush
Is worth two in the hand
I think I can help you get through your exams
Oh, you handsome devil


Oh, let me get my hands
On your mammary gland
And let me get your head
On the conjugal bed
I say, I say, I say


I crack the whip
And you skip
But you deserve it
You deserve it


And when we're in your scholarly room
Who will swallow whom ?
And when we're in your scholarly room
Who will swallow whom ?
You handsome devil


Oh, let me get my hands
On your mammary gland
And let me get your head
On the conjugal bed
I say, I say, I say


There's more to life than books, you know
But not much more
Oh, there's more to life than books, you know
But not much more, not much more
Oh, you handsome devil
Oh, you handsome devil
Ow !

A good musician friend of mine is forming a little "side project" - him or a friend of his, I can't remember - which will be called The Blacksmiths.

The Blacksmiths will be a Big Black cover band that sings every song like Morrissey.

Imagine:
- "Ahhnd this will stay with you until you daaaaaaie"
- "Haaing with me Joe, haaing with me Joe, haaing with me Joe"
- "Ay guess they know, I'm not no company man, but I can pull on a rope, I can kill a cow, and death for no reason is murder!"
- "You cahhn't ignore the beauty in the things that you love"
- "That's my disco, hang the blessed DJ"
- "Columbian necktaaaaaaaaaaaaiiihhh!"
- "Well I'm god's gift to women, always want my dick"
- The entirety of "Bad Penny"

etc.
