Smiths - How Soon Is Now lyrics

rate me

I am the son<br />

And the heir<br />

Of a shyness that is criminally vulgar<br />

I am the son and heir<br />

Of nothing in particular<br />

<br />

You shut your mouth<br />

How can you say<br />

I go about things the wrong way?<br />

I am human and I need to be loved<br />

Just like everybody else does<br />

<br />

I am the son<br />

And the heir<br />

Of a shyness that is criminally vulgar<br />

I am the son and heir<br />

Of nothing in particular<br />

<br />

You shut your mouth<br />

How can you say<br />

I go about things the wrong way?<br />

I am human and I need to be loved<br />

Just like everybody else does<br />

<br />

There's a club if you'd like to go<br />

You could meet somebody who really loves you<br />

So you go and you stand on your own<br />

And you leave on your own<br />

And you go home and you cry<br />

And you want to die<br />

<br />

When you say it's gonna happen "now"<br />

Well when exactly do you mean?<br />

See I've already waited too long<br />

And all my hope is gone<br />

<br />

You shut your mouth<br />

How can you say<br />

I go about things the wrong way?<br />

I am human and I need to be loved<br />

Just like everybody else does
