Your favorite Morrissey quote

Morrissey wrote so many good lyrics but the one below will always be my favorite.

"But dont forget the songs

That made you cry

And the songs that saved your life

Yes, youre older now

And youre a clever swine

But they were the only ones who ever stood by you"

Rubber Ring

'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"'

'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"'

I love that one too. This is gonna be hard to pick, I could be here for a while.

"Sad veiled bride, please be happy

Handsome groom, give her room

Loud, loutish lover, treat her kindly

Though she needs you

More than she loves you"

-I Know It's Over

"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"

-Bigmouth Strikes Again

"I am the son

And the heir

Of a shyness that is criminally vulgar

I am the son and the heir

Of nothing in particular

You shut your mouth

How can you say

I go about things the wrong way

I am Human and I need to be loved

Just like everybody else does

There's a club, if you'd like to go

You could meet somebody who really loves you

So you go, and you stand on your own

And you leave on your own

And you go home

And you cry

And you want to die"

-How Soon Is Now?

And of course...

"And if a double-decker bus

Crashes into us

To die by your side

Is such a heavenly way to die

And if a ten-ton truck

Kills the both of us

To die by your side

Well, the pleasure - the privilege is mine"

-There Is A Light That Never Goes Out
