Smiths - I Started Something I Couldn't Finish lyrics

rate me

The lanes were silent <br />

There was nothing, no one, nothing around for miles <br />

I doused our friendly venture <br />

With a hard-faced <br />

Three-word gesture <br />

<br />

I started something <br />

I forced you to a zone <br />

And you were clearly <br />

Never meant to go <br />

Hair brushed and parted <br />

Typical me, typical me <br />

Typical me <br />

I started something <br />

...And now I'm not too sure <br />

<br />

<br />

I grabbed you by the guilded beams <br />

Uh, that's what tradition means <br />

And I doused another venture <br />

With a gesture <br />

That was ... absolutely vile <br />

<br />

<br />

I started something <br />

I forced you to a zone <br />

And you were clearly <br />

Never meant to go <br />

Hair brushed and parted <br />

Typical me, typical me <br />

Typical me <br />

I started something <br />

...And now I'm not too sure <br />

<br />

<br />

I grabbed you by the guilded beams <br />

Uh, that's what tradition means <br />

And now eighteen months' hard labour <br />

Seems ... fair enough <br />

<br />

<br />

I started something <br />

And I forced you to a zone <br />

And you were clearly <br />

Never meant to go <br />

Hair brushed and parted <br />

Typical me, typical me <br />

Typical me <br />

I started something <br />

And now I'm not too sure <br />

<br />

<br />

I started something <br />

I started something <br />

Typical me, typical me <br />

Typical me, typical me <br />

Typical me, typical me <br />

Typical me <br />

I started something <br />

And now I'm not too sure <br />

<br />

<br />

OK Stephen ? ...Do that again ?
