The Morrissey appreciation thread

[The Seeker]

Absolute bloomin genius

On returning, I can't believe this world is still turning, The pressure's on, Because the pleasure hasn't gone
And I'm, Not sorry for, For the things I've done
And I'm, Not looking for, Just anyone

On competing, Oh, when will this tired heart stop beating?, It's all a game, Existence is only a game
And I'm, Not sorry for, For the things I've done
And I'm, Not looking for, Just anyone

I'm, Slipping below the water line, I'm, Slipping below the water line
Reach for my hand, And, And the race is won
Reject my hand, And, The damage is done

I'm, Slipping below the water line
I'm, Slipping below the water line

The woman of my dreams, She, She never came along
The woman of my dreams, Well, There never was one

And I'm, Not sorry for, For the things I've said
There's a wild man in my head, There's a wild man In my head

Morrissey is great. He's a brilliant lyricist. I love The Smiths

I enjoy the Smiths and Morrissey, but I must say, You Are The Quarry was certainly not up to par with his past work. With the exception of Irish Blood, English Heart there weren't a whole lot of songs that I really liked. And lyrically, I didn't find the whole "America, you know where you can shove your hamburger" line all that funny or witty or anything, along with many of his other lines.

But other than that, I am a fan, and I suppose he is worthy of his own appreciation thread. Carry on.
