Smiths - Half A Person (Bbc) lyrics

rate me

Call me morbid, call me pale <br />

I've spent six years on your trail <br />

Six long years <br />

On your trail <br />

<br />

Call me morbid, call me pale <br />

I've spent six years on your trail <br />

Six full years of my life on your trail <br />

<br />

<br />

And if you have five seconds to spare <br />

Then I'll tell you the story of my life : <br />

Sixteen, clumsy and shy <br />

I went to London and I <br />

I booked myself in at the Y ... W.C.A. <br />

I said : "I like it here - can I stay ? <br />

I like it here - can I stay ? <br />

And do you have a vacancy <br />

For a Back-scrubber?"<br />

<br />

<br />

She was left behind, and sour <br />

And she wrote to me, equally dour <br />

She said : "In the days when you were <br />

Hopelessly poor <br />

I just liked you more..." <br />

<br />

<br />

And if you have five seconds to spare <br />

Then I'll tell you the story of my life : <br />

Sixteen, clumsy and shy <br />

I went to London and I <br />

I booked myself in at the Y ... W.C.A. <br />

I said : "I like it here - can I stay ? <br />

I like it here - can I stay ? <br />

And do you have a vacancy <br />

For a Back-scrubber ?"<br />

<br />

<br />

Call me morbid, call me pale <br />

I've spent too long on your trail <br />

Far too long <br />

Chasing your tail <br />

Oh ... <br />

<br />

<br />

And if you have five seconds to spare <br />

Then I'll tell you the story of my life : <br />

Sixteen, clumsy and shy <br />

That's the story of my life <br />

Sixteen, clumsy and shy <br />

The story of my life <br />

That's the story of my life <br />

That's the story of my life <br />

That's the story of my life <br />

The story of my life <br />

That's the story of my life <br />

That's the story of my life
