MORRISSEY - Girl Least Likely To lyrics

rate me

How many times have I been around ? <br>Recycled papers paving the ground<br>Well, she lives for the written word<br>And people come second, or possibly third<br><br>And there is no style, but I say well done<br>To the girl least likely to<br>Oh, deep in my heart, how I wish I was wrong<br>But deep in my heart, I know I am not<br>And there's enough gloom in her world, I'm certain<br>Without my contribution<br><br>So I sit, and I smile, and I say well done<br>To the girl least likely to<br>Page after page of sniping rage<br>An english singe or an american tinge<br>There's a publisher, she said, ...in the new year<br>(it's never in this year)<br><br>I do think this, but I can't admit it<br>To the girl least likely to<br>So one more song with no technique<br>One more song which seems all wrong ...<br>And oh, the news is bad again<br>See me as I am again<br><br>And the scales of justice sway one way<br>In the rooms of those least likely to<br>Oh, deep in my heart, how I want to be wrong<br>But the moods and the styles too frequently change<br>From 21 to 25, from 25 to 29<br><br>And I sit, and I smile, and I say well done<br>To the girl least likely to<br>Oh, one more song about the queen<br>Or standing around the shops with thieves<br>But somebody's got to make it ! she screams<br>So why why can't it be me ? <br>But she would die if we heard her sing from the heart<br>Which is hurt<br><br>So how many times will I shed a tear ? <br>And another stage of verse to cheer<br>When you shine in the public eye, my dear<br>Please remember these nights<br>When I sit and support with a dutiful smile<br>Because there's nothing I can say<br>So chucking, churning, and turning the knife<br>On everything (except their own life)<br>And a clock somewhere strikes midnight<br>And an explanation - it drains me<br>If only there could be a way<br><br>There is a different mood all over the world<br>A different youth, unfamiliar views<br>And dearest, it could all be for you<br>So will you come down and I'll meet you ? <br>And with no more poems, with nothing to hear<br>Oh darling, it's all for you...<br>Darling, it's all for you ...<br>Oh darling, it's all for you ...<br>Oh darling, it's all for you ...
