MORRISSEY - Speedway lyrics

rate me

And when you slam

Down the hammer

Can you see it in your heart ?

All of the rumours

Keeping me grounded

I never said, I never said that they were

Completely unfounded

So when you slam

Down the hammer

Can you see it in your heart ?

Can you delve so low ?

And when you're standing

On my fingers

Can you see it in your heart ? ... ah ...

And when you try

To break my spirit

It won't work

Because there's nothing left to break

Anymore

All of the rumours

Keeping me grounded

I never said, I never said that they were

Completely unfounded

You won't sleep

Until the earth that wants me

Finally has me

Oh you've done it now

You won't rest

Until the hearse that becomes me

Finally takes me

Oh you've done it now

And you won't smile

Until my loving mouth

Is shut good and proper

FOREVER

All of the rumours

Keeping me grounded

I never said, I never said that they were

Completely unfounded

And all those lies

Written lies, twisted lies

Well, they weren't lies

They weren't lies

They weren't lies

I never said

I never said

I could have mentioned your name

I could have dragged you in

Guilt by implication

By association

I've always been true to you

In my own strange way

I've always been true to you

In my own sick way
