Morrissey - Swords [compilation] (2009) by Morrissey (보컬) on maniadb.com

I'm not running away
I'm running to
Corruption of the spirit isn't in it
For a good looking man about town

Are you afraid of someone alive?
Are you feeling heartbroken
Because you'll never be mistaken for a
Good looking man about town?

You got your degree
Then you flew to Mars
But you still feel wretched 'cause
You'll never be naked with a
Good looking man about town

Are you afraid of someone alive?
Are you scared to death
Of even looking at the flesh of a
Good looking man about town?

Hear the gang say
Marry me, marry me

On the midnight street
No moon and no stars
No one around to calm you down
And to soften the stings to my heart

The dream is sand in my hands
The dream becomes sand in my hands

Long ago when he was young and restless
Suddenly Daddy saw the beckoning finger of fate

Don't make fun of Daddy's voice
Because he can't help it
When he was a teenage boy
Something got stuck in his throat

When you are young you crave affection
And it can come from the strangest direction

Don't make fun of Daddy's voice
Because he can't help it
When he was teenage boy
Something got stuck in his throat

Don't make fun of Daddy's voice
Because he can't help it
When he was teenage boy
Something got stuck in his throat

No te divertes con Papi
No te divertes con Papi
No te divertes con Papi
No te divertes con Papi
No te divertes con Papi
No te divertes con Papi
No te divertes con Papi
No te divertes con Papi

Run, run young man through the glen
Run, young woman through the glen
See if I care, see if I care, see if I care
See if I care, See if I care, See if I care

If you don't like me, then don't look at me
There must be somebody else who can take your gaze aways

If you don't like me, then don't look at me
There must be somebody else who can take your gaze aways

Run, run young man through the glen
Run, young woman through the glen
And see if I care, see if I care, see If I care
See if I care, see if I care, see if I care

If you don't like me, then don't look at me
There must be somebody else who can take your gaze aways
If you don't like me, then don't look at me
There must be somebody else who can take your gaze aways
Aways, aways, aways, aways

If you don't want me
You don't have to have me
I just thought you might feel the same, that's all

If you don't want me
You don't have to have me
I just thought you might feel the same, that's all
That's all, that's all, that's all...

Ganglord, the police are
Kicking there way into my house
And haunting me
Taunting me!
Wanting me to break their laws.

Ganglord, the police are
Kicking there way into my house
And hauting me!
Taunting me!
Wanting me to break their laws.

And I'm turning to you
To save me,
And I'm turning to you
To save me

[Repeat: x2]
Ganglord, the police are
Grinding me into the ground.
The headless pack are back
Small boy jokes and loaded guns

And I'm turning to you
To save me,
And I'm turning to you
To save me! Save me! Save me! Save me

Gandlord, there's a clock on the wall
Making fun of us all

Ganglord, the clock on the wall
Makes a joke of us all

And I'm turning to you to save me
And I'm turning to you
To save me! Save me! Save me! Save me

[Repeat: x2]
Ganglord, remember
The police can always be bribed

They say to protect and to serve
But what they really mean to say is
"Get back to the ghetto! The ghetto, the ghetto
Get yourself back to the ghetto!
The ghetto! The ghetto!
Get yourself back to the ghetto!
The ghetto! The ghetto! "

These tears I'm wailing
I spill not without reason
Remove them my dearest love my

Take me, to the place I've been dreaming of
Where the grotesquely lonely meet the grotesquely lonely
And they whisper
Just very softly
Please be mine Dearest Love
Be my dearest love
Be my dearest love

I have hung on , hung on, hung on for one hundred years
For someone to shake me someone to wake me
If necessary someone to break me
My dearest love
My dearest love
My dearest love
My dearest love
My dearest love
My dearest love

Reflecting from my deathbed
I'm balancing life's riches
against the ditches
and the flat gray years in-between
all I can see are the never-laid
that's the never played symphonies

I can't see those who tried to love me
or those who felt they understood me
and I can't see those who
very patiently put up with me
All I can see are the never-laid
or the never played symphonies

You were one, you meant to be one
and you jumped into my face
and laughed and kissed me on the cheek
and then were gone forever
not quite

Black sky in the daytime
and I don't much mind dying
when there is nothing left to care for anymore
just the never layed
the never played symphonies

You were one, you knew you were one
and you slid right through my fingers
no not literally
but metaphorically
and now you're all I see
as the light fades

Sweetie pie
I've fallen in love.
And the joke is on me.
And the sun's given up.
I'm depending on you,
To see I get safely to
The port where my heart
Is too lost to find.
And will be there to meet you when its your time.

Sweetie pie
I'm ending my life.
Because I've fallen in love.
And nothing is enough.
To see I get safely to
The port where my heart
Is too lost to find.
And will be there to meet you when its your time

Sweetie pie.
How I feel in my mind,
And how I live in he world,
They are oceans apart.
To see I get safely to
The port where my heart
Is too lost to find.
And will be there to meet you when its your time.

Christian Dior
You wasted your life
On aroma and clothes
Fabric and dyes

Christian Dior
You wasted your life
On grandeur and style
Making the poor rich smile

You could have run wild
On the backstreets of Lyon or Marseille
Reckless and legless and stoned
Impregnating women
Or kissing mad street boys from Napoli
Who couldn't even write their own name

Christian Dior
You wasted your life
Sensually stroking the weaves of a sleeve.

You could have run wild
On the backstreets of Lyon or Marseille
Reckless and legless and stoned
Impregnating women
Or kissing mad street boys from Napoli
Who couldn't even spell their own name

Oh, Christian Dior
Oh, Christian Dior

When you look at me
Failure is all that you see
I discipline my days just like Christian Dior

I could've run loudly and proudly
Or forcible entry
Morally bankrupt
And never non-violent
And drawn to what scares me
And scared of what bores me
Years alone will never be returned.

Christian Dior
Lyonise maverick, ah
Design if you can, ah
The way to just be a man, ah
To just be a man, ah

Christian Dior

Shame is the name
Shame is the name
Shame is the name
Shame is the name

Hey boy, are you happy to be
A dim-ass teen on the spree?
You get drunk all day
And you're sick all night
Is this the sum of your life?

What's your name, what's your name?
What's your dreams, your goals
Your ambitions and aims?
He laughed and said

Shame is the name
He said Shame is the name
Shame is the name
He said Shame is the name

Hey girl, are you happy to be
A dim-ass teen on the spree?
You get drunk all day
And you're sick all night
Is this all you was born for?

What's your name, what's your name?
What's your dreams, your goals
Ambitions and aims?
She laughed and said

Shame is the name
She said Shame is the name
Shame is the name
Shame is the name

Politician, can you listen
To yourself for just once in your life?
Because there's something you said
To mean soldiers are dead
Because the money you save
Seniors are in their grave

Shame is the name
Shame is the name
Shame is the name
Shame is the name

Shame makes the world go around
Shame makes the world go around
Shame makes the world go around
Shame makes the world go around

We love them
We mourn for them
Unlucky boys of red

I wish I'd gone down
Gone down with them
To where mother nature makes their bed

We miss them
Every night we kiss them
Their faces fixed in our heads

I wish I'd gone down
Gone down with them
To where mother nature makes their bed

They can't hurt you
Their style will never desert you
Because they're all safely dead

I wish I'd gone down
Gone down with them

So what do you think I am?
And how precisely could you tell
A decent skin is all I am?
People think badly of me
But one day maybe they'll praise
Oh but meanwhile...

I knew I was next
And I didn't mind
Here I offer you my life for any debts you're due
And when you've been down for the very last time
There is nothing anyone can do to hurt you

The shadows of trees, they reach to me
They know a decent skin is all I am
People think badly of me
But when I'm in grave maybe they'll praise
Oh but meanwhile...

I knew I was next
And I didn't mind
Here I offer you my life for any debts you're due
And when you've been down for the very last time
There is nothing anyone can do to hurt you

Oh but meanwhile...

I knew I was next
And I didn't mind
When you've been slapped around
And one more slap can't hurt you
And when you've been down for the very last time
There is nothing anyone can do to hurt you

I knew I was next
And I didn't mind
When you've been slapped around
And one more slap can't hurt you
And when you've been down for the very last time
There is nothing anyone can say to hurt you

I can kill standing still
It's easy
I can scare with a stare
It's easy

Hey Ringo
It's sad though
Because it's hard to walk tall
When you're small
Whether dressed in
Disciplined style
Never mind
When you're small
You walk as if you're falling

I attack from the back
Because it's easy
And I can assail
While wearing very nice jewelry

Oh hey Ringo
It's sad though
Because it's hard to walk tall
When you're small
Whether dressed in
Disciplined style
Never mind
When you're small
You spend your life crawling

I burst into
Public baths
And I throw my weight around
And no one can even see me
No one can even see me
Nobody can see me
No one can see me

Success is just a mess
Hey Ringo
It's sad though
Because it's hard to walk tall
When you're small
Whether dressed in
Disciplined style
Never mind
When you're small
You're bound to look ???

So compadre
Please do this for me
Compadre please read for me
Compadre
Compadre
Please read for me

You chase in the rat-race
And you always feel so hollow
You marry because it's expected of you
And it only makes you feel more lonely
But still you look down on the
Teenage dad on his estate
He's happy - so leave him alone
With his baby and his modest home
He's happy - so leave him alone
With his Jensen Interceptor
It's just a runaround

You defer to the views of the television news
Let someone do your thinking for you
And you still buy a daily newspaper
And you find everything there but the news
And still you look down on the
Teenage dad on his estate
He's happy - so leave him alone
With his baby and his modest home
He's happy - so leave him alone
With his Jensen Interceptor
It's just a runaround

You become your parents' parent
And you love them
But you can't help feeling used
And you hate the teenage dad on his estate
Because he's poor but he's happier than you
They're all laughing at you
You're a dipper, a slider, cart-horse provider
Nobody cares about you
Just as long as you're out there bringing it in
Despising the grin on the face of the boy
With the methadone ahh
With his methadone
He's happy - so leave him alone
With his methadone
He's happy - so leave him alone

Children in pieces
In Irish industrial schools
Nuns called mothers
And their christian brothers
Kick the shit out of very frightened children

Judges and priests and police and cardinals
They look the other way
When the weekend comes they'll make you suffer

Children in pieces
In Irish industrial schools
Nuns called mothers
And their christian brothers
Kick the shit out of very frightened children

You say you wanna go home
You say you wanna be left alone
And so you turn to me
But instead of sympathy I find
My sentimental heart hardens
My sentimental heart hardens
Get your hands off me
Kid, you must be bad luck
My sentimental heart hardens

Friday mourning, I'm dressed in black
Douse the houselights, I'm not coming back
For years, I warned you
Through tears, I told you
Friday mourning, there comes a time
Before that breaks this very smug mug of mine

This dawn raid soon put paid to
All the things I'd whispered to you
At night time
And I will never stand naked in front of you
Or if I do, it won't be for a long time

Look once to me, look once to me
Then look away
Look once to me, then look away

And when they hold me down
And when they kick me down the stairs
I see the faces all lined up before me
Of teachers and of parents and bosses
Who all share a point of view
You are a loser
You are a loser

Friday, Friday mourning
Dressed in black
I won't be coming back

My life is an
Endless succession
Of people saying goodbye
My life is
An endless succession
Of people saying goodbye
And what's left for me?
What's left for me?
At one time
The future it stretched out before me
But now it stretches behind me.
And all of the best things in life
Are behind glass
Money, jewelry and flesh
And what's left for me?
What's left for me?

Let me put my arms around your head
It's hot, let's go to bed
Don't forget to turn on the light
Don't laugh, this will be alright
Pour me out another phone
I'll ring and see if your friends are home
The strange ones in the dome
Can lend us a book we can read up alone

And try to get it on like once before
When people stared in David's eyes and scored
Like the video films we saw

His name was always Buddy
And he'd shrug and ask to stay
She'd sigh like Twig the Wonder Kid
And turn her face away.
She's uncertain if she likes him
But she knows she really loves him
It's a crash course for the ravers
It's a Drive-in Saturday

Jung, the foreman, prayed at work
That neither hands nor limbs would burst
It's hard enough to keep formation
With this fall-out saturation
Cursing at the Internet
That stands in steel by his cabinet
(He's crashing out with Sylvain
The Bureau supply for aging men)
You don't really like this song, do you ?
Do you ? Do you ?

With snorting head he gazes to the shore
Which once had raised a sea that raged no more
Like the video films he saw

His name was always Buddy
And he'd shrug and ask to stay
And she'd sigh like the Wonder Kid
And turn her face away
She's uncertain if she likes him
But she know she really loves him
It's a crash course for the ravers
It's a Drive-In Saturday

His name was always Buddy
And he'd shrug and he'd ask to stay
And she'd sigh like the Wonder Kid
And turn her face away
She's uncertain if she likes him
She know she really loves him
It's a crash course for the ravers
It's a Drive-In Saturday

It's a Drive-In Saturday
It's a Drive-In Saturday
It's a Drive-In Saturday
It's a Drive-In Saturday

Because of my poor education
I don't expect your invitation
A ship lost inches away from the bay

Because of my poor education
I can't endure my situation
This here is my bed and I must lie

Because of this strange indentation
I live my life without affection
Kind-hearted, view me and say "Thank God that's not me"

Once I was sure I had found my hero
And I allowed myself to think so
Reality is not real to me

The one I love
Is standing near
The one I love
Is everywhere
I can woo you
I can amuse you
But there is nothing I can do to make you mine
Black cloud, black cloud

The one I love
Roosts in the mind
Can snap this spell
Or increase hell
I can chase you
And I can catch you
But there is nothing I can do to make you mine
Black cloud, black cloud
Oh, black cloud
Oh, black cloud

I play the game
Of favorites now
I can I must
I will I do
I can please you
Or I can freeze you out
But there is nothing I can do to make you mine
Black cloud, black cloud, black cloud
I can choke myself to please you
And I can sink much lower than usual
But there's nothing I can do
To make you mine

In the absence of your love
And in the absence of human touch
I have decided
I'm throwing my arms around, around Paris
Because only stone and steel accept my love.

In the absence of your smiling face
I traveled all over the place
And I have decided
I'm throwing my arms around, around Paris
Because only stone and steel accept my love
I'm throwing my arms around, around Paris
Because only stone and steel accept my love.

I'm throwing my arms around Paris
Because nobody wants my love
Nobody wants my love
Nobody needs my love
Nobody wants my love

Yes, you made yourself plain
Yes, you made yourself very plain

Lord these words I beg of you
As I kneel down at my bed
Because soon I will be dead
Let's face it soon I will be dead
And I just want to
I want to see the boy happy
With some hope in his pale eyes
Is that too much to ask?
Before I die
I have one final dream
For my own life I don't care anything

Lord these words I beg of you
As I kneel down at my bed
Let's face it soon I will be dead
And I just want to
I want to see the boy happy
With his arms around his first love
Is that too much to ask?
Before I die
I have one final dream
For my own life I don't care anything
And I just want to
I want to see this boy happy
Why is this such a bad thing?

The sanest days are mad
then you'll see the price
very closely
why don't you find out for yourself
some men here
they have a special interest
in your career
they wanna help you to grow
then you'll see the glass
and then syphon all your dough
why don't you find out for yourself
hidden in the grass
why don't you find out for yourself
you'll never believe me, so
sick down to my heart
that's just the way it goes
they know the full extent of
some men here
they kneel and pray
and they say:
your distress
why don't you find out for yourself
"long may it last"
hidden in the grass
then you'll see the glass
bad scenes come and go
for which you must allow
sick down to my heart
I know exactly what they are
that's just the way it goes
Don't rake up my mistakes
well... you just SIT THERE
I've been stabbed in the back
so many many times
and... what do YOU do?
I don't have any skin
but that's just the way it goes

Always be careful
When you abuse the one you love
The hour or the day, no one can tell
But one day goodbye will be farewell
And you will never see the one you love again
You will never see the one you love again

I have been thinking, what, with my final brain cell
How time grips you, slimming, in it's spell
And before you know, goodbye will be farewell
And you will never see the one you love again
And the smiling children tell you that you smell

Well, just look at me
A savage Beast with nothing to sell
And when I die, I want to go to Hell
And that's when goodbye should be farewell
One day goodbye will be farewell
So grab me while you still can, goodbye

It's the same old S.O.S.
But with brand new broken fortunes
And once again I turn to you
Once again I do I turn to you
It's the same old S.O.S.
But with brand new broken fortunes
I'm the same underneath
But this you, you surely knew

Life is a pigsty
Life is a pigsty
Life is a pigsty
Life is a pigsty
Life, life is a pigsty
Life, life is a pigsty
Life, life is a pigsty
Life is a pigsty
And if you don't know this
Then what do you know?
Every second of my life I only live for you
And you can shoot me
And you can throw me off a train
I still maintain
I still maintain
Life, life is a pigsty
Life is a pigsty
And I'd been shifting gears all of my life
But I'm still the same underneath
This you surely knew
I can't reach you
I can't reach you
I can't reach you anymore

Can you please stop time?
Can you stop the pain?
I feel too cold
And now I feel too warm again
Can you stop this pain?
Can you stop this pain?
Even now in the final hour of my life
I'm falling in love again
Again
Even now in the final hour of my life
I'm falling in love again
Again
Again
Again
I'm falling in love again
Again
Again
Again

Could this be an arm around my waist?
Well, surely the hand contains a knife
It's been so all of my life
Why change now? - "It hasn't!"
Now this might surprise you, but
I find I'm OK by myself
And I don't need you
Or your morality to save me
No, no, no, no, no

Then came an arm around my shoulder
Well surely the hand holds a revolver
It's been so all of my life
Why change now? - "It hasn't!"
Now this might disturb you, but
I find I'm o.k. by myself
And I don't need you
Or your benevolence to make sense
No, no, no!

After all these years
I find I'm OK by myself
And I don't need you
Or your homespun philosophy
No, no, no, no

This might make you throw up in your bed
I'm o.k. by myself!
And I don't need you
And I never have, I never have
No, no, no, no!
