Mama Lay softly on the Riverbed (Lyrics) - "Years of refusal" -Morrissey

Mama why did you do it?
mama who drove you to it ?
Was it the pigs in grey suits persecuting you
uncivil servants unconcerned by how they frightened you
life is nothing much to loose
It's just so lonely here without you


Mama why did you do it?
mama who drove you to it ?


(?) british money men who scared the life out of you
bailiffs with bad breathe I will slit their throats for you
life is nothing much to loose
It's just so lonely here without you


life is nothing much to loose
It's just so lonely here without you
(soooo)
I want you
When I come to you
we're going to lie down beside you mama
we're going to met you
We're going to join you
we're going to lie down beside you mama
and we will be safe and sheltered in our graves
we'll come before you and we will kiss you
by way of one fine (?) mama

Say Farewell.....

'Say farewell to your fair-weather friends , and not a second to soon'

Morrissey 'No-one can hold a candle to you'

Morrissey- 'One day goodbye will be farewell' lyrics

'One day goodbye will be farewell'

Always be careful when you abuse the one you love 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 the one you love again

I have been thinking -what with- my final brain cell
How time grips you slyly in it's spell
And before you know goodbye will be farewell

And you will never see the one you love again
And the tiny children tell you that you smell
Well just look at me, a stubborn beast I've got nothing to sell
And when I die I want to go to hell

And that's when goodbye should be farewell
taa tah taa tah

One day goodbye will be farewell
So grab me while you still can - goodbye


Taken from the 'Live' version of the track - so no guarantee ppl that this is the final version to appear on 'Years of Refusal in Feb 09

Morrissey - Autobiography

Morrissey, has 'mentioned' on the Janice Long show (Radio 6 show in the UK) that he is currently writing/thinking of writing (delete as you wish) his autobiography that covers his music career, in an effort to maybe 'correct some truths'

"So much crap is written about me, it's hard to live with sometimes," he said. "It all gets burned down in history and becomes a part of your legacy."

If however 'Morrissey's true 'Legacy' sees the 'light of day' - well,..... we will see.........

Morrissey & Thoughts.....

'There is something I wanted to tell you, It's so funny you'll kill yourself laughing

But then I, I look around, And I remember that I am alone, Alone. For evermore........'

Quoted from the track 'Come Back to Camden' off the Album 'You Are the Quarry' by Morrissey
