The Smiths - Bigmouth Strikes Again
Sweetness, sweetness I was only joking
When I said I'd like to smash every tooth
In your head
Oh ... sweetness, sweetness, I was only joking
When I said by rights you should be
Bludgeoned in your bed
And now I know how Joan of Arc felt
Now I know how Joan of Arc felt
As the flames rose to her roman nose
And her Walkman started to melt
Oh ...
Bigmouth, la ... bigmouth, la ...
Bigmouth strikes again
And I've got no right to take my place
With the Human race
Oh, bigmouth, la ... bigmouth, la
Bigmouth strikes again
And I've got no right to take my place
With the Human race
And now I know how Joan of Arc felt
Now I know how Joan of Arc felt
As the flames rose to her roman nose
And her hearing aid started to melt
Bigmouth, la ... bigmouth, la ...
Bigmouth strikes again
And I've got no right to take my place
With the Human race
Oh ...
Bigmouth, oh ... bigmouth, la ...
Bigmouth strikes again
And I've got no right to take my place
With the Human race
Oh ...
Bigmouth, oh ... bigmouth, la ...
Bigmouth strikes again
And I've got no right to take my place
With the Human race
Oh ...
Bigmouth, oh ... bigmouth, la ...
Bigmouth strikes again
And I've got no right to take my place
With the Human race
Oh ...

The Smiths - WIKIPEDIA Y TEMAS
The Smiths
The Smiths fue una banda de indie rock formada en Manchester, Inglaterra en 1982 por el cantante Morrissey y el guitarrista Johnny Marr. La banda disfrutó de un éxito considerable hasta su separación en 1987. Su música ha sido de gran influencia en la música indie británica, y en los '90, una gran influencia para el Britpop.
Dos de las cosas más notables del grupo fueron su polémico cantante con sus no menos polémicas letras y la música compuesta por Marr, que devolvía la guitarra al frente de la banda en una época en la que el techno pop gozaba de gran salud en las listas de éxitos inglesas. La música de la banda se nutría de influencias de rock de los 60 y 70, especialmente del rockabilly y del glam rock, estilo entre cuyas bandas representativas se hallaban algunos ídolos de Morrissey como los New

THE SMITHS- THE QUEEN IS DEAD
The Smiths
1986
* Oh ! take me back to dear old blighty,
put me on the train for london town,
take me anywhere,
drop me anywhere,
liverpool, leeds or birmingham
but i don't care,
i should like to see my ...
I don't bless them
farewell to this land's cheerless marshes
hemmed in like a boar between arches
her very lowness with a head in a sling
i'm truly sorry - but it sounds like a wonderful thing
i said charles, don't you ever crave
to appear on the front of the daily mail
dressed in your mother's bridal veil ?
oh ...
and so, i checked all the registered historical facts
and i was shocked into shame to discover
how i'm the 18th pale descendant
of some old queen or other
oh, has the world changed, or have i changed ?
oh has the world changed, or have i changed ?
some 9-year old tough who peddles drugs
i swear to god
i swear : i never even knew what drugs were
oh ...
so, i broke into the palace
with a sponge and a rusty spanner
she said : "eh, i know you, and you cannot sing"
i said : "that's nothing - you should hear me play piano"
we can go for a walk where it's quiet and dry
and talk about precious things
but when you're tied to your mother's apron
no-one talks about castration
oh ...
we can go for a walk where it's quiet and dry
and talk about precious things
like love and law and poverty
oh, these are the things that kill me
we can go for a walk where it's quiet and dry
and talk about precious things
but the rain that flattens my hair ...
oh, these are the things that kill me
all their lies about make-up and long hair, are still there
past the pub who saps your body
and the church who'll snatch your money
the queen is dead, boys
and it's so lonely on a limb
past the pub that wrecks your body
and the church - all they want is your money
the queen is dead, boys
and it's so lonely on a limb
life is very long, when you're lonely
life is very long, when you're lonely
life is very long, when you're lonely
life is very long, when you're lonely
