BIGMOUTH STRIKES AGAIN
[lyrics by Morrissey & Johnny Marr]
[incluido en single> Nancy boy]
[incluido en cd2 SWG Special Edition]

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 discman started to melt

Bigmouth la da dum da da
bigmouth la da da da, bigmouth strikes again
and I've got no right to take my place
in the human race
Oh
bigmouth la da dum da da
bigmouth la da da da
bigmouth strikes again
and I've got no right to take my place
in 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 megadrive started to melt

Bigmouth la da dum da da
bigmouth la da da da
bigmouth strikes again
and I've got no right to take my place
in the human race
Oh
bigmouth la da dum da da
bigmouth la da da da bigmouth strikes again
and I've got no right to take my place
in the human race.

DARK GLOBE
[lyrics by Syd Barrett]
[incluido en single> 36 degrees]

Oh where are you now
pussy willow that smiled on this leaf?
When I was alone
you promised the stone from your heart.
My head kissed the ground
I was half the way down
treading the sand
please.

Please lift a hand
I'm only a person
whose armbands beat
on his hands, hang tall
Won't you miss me?
wouldn't you miss me at all?
Oh
Oh
Oh

The poppy bird's way
swing twigs coffee brands around
brandish her wand with a feathery tongue
My head kissed the ground.
I was half the way down
treading the sand
please
please

Please lift a hand
I'm only a person
with eskimo chain
I tattooed my brain all the way
Won't you miss me?
wouldn't you miss me at all?
Oh
Oh
Oh

BEEN SMOKING TOO LONG
[lyrics by Anonymous]
[incluido en single> Teenage angst]

'yeah, I really, um, I really, I really wanted to kind of like,
to capture some kind of like moment, but maybe it's better if I'm sober...'

Wake up in the morning, I look at my clock
it's way past noontime, I'm late for work.
Tell me what have I done wrong?
nothing can go right with me it must be that I've been smoking
too long

Go to fix me some breakfast, I ain't got no food
take me a shower, the water don't feel no good.
Tell me what have I done wrong?
and nothing can go right with me must be that I've been smoking
too long

I got opium in my chimney, no other life to choose
nightmares made of hash dreams, the devil in my shoes.
What have I done wrong?
yeah nothing can go right with me it must be that I've been smoking
too long

When I'm smoking, smoking, put my worries on a shelf
try not to think about nothing, don't wanna see myself
What have I done wrong?
and nothing can go right with me it must be that I've been smoking
too long

In this blues I'm singing, there's a lesson to be learned
you go round smoking, you're gonna get burned
Fuck me what have I done wrong?
nothing can go right with me must be that I've been smoking
too long
too long.

JOHNNY & MARY
[lyrics by R.Palmer]
[incluido en single> Taste in men]
[incluido en cd2 SWG Special Edition]

Johnny's always running around, trying to find certainty.
He needs all the world to confirm, that he aint lonely

Mary counts walls, knows he tires easily

Johnny thinks the world would be right, if it would buy, truth from him.
Mary says he changes his mind, more than a woman.

But she made her bed, even when the chance was slim.

Johnny says he's willing to learn, when he decides, he's a fool.
Johnny say's he'll live any where, when he earns time to.

Mary combs her hair, says she should be use to it.

Mary always edges her bets, she never knows, what to think.
She says that he still acts, like he's being discovered.

Scared that he'll get caught, without a second thought

Johnny feels he's wasting his breath, trying to talk, sense to her
Mary says he's lacking a real, sense of proportion
So she combs her hair, knows he tires easily

Johnny's always running around, trying to find certainty.
He needs all the world to confirm, that he aint lonely

Mary counts walls, says she should be use to it.

HOLOCAUST
[lyrics by Alex Chilton]
[incluido en single> Slave to the wage]
[incluido en cd2 SWG Special Edition]

Your eyes are almost dead
can't get out of bed
And you can't sleep

You're sitting down to dress
and you're a mess
You look in the mirror

You look in your eyes
Then you realize

Everybody goes
leaving those
who fall behind

Everybody goes
as far as they can
They don't just care

They stood on the stairs
Laughing at your airs

Your mother's dead
She said
"Don't be afraid"

Your mother's dead
You're on your own
She's in her bed

Everybody goes
Leaving those
Who fall behind

Everybody goes
As far as they can
They don't just care

You're a wasted face
you're a sad-eyed lie
You're a holocaust

It doesn't hurt me
Do you want to feel how it feels
Do you want to know, know that it doesn't hurt me
Do you want to hear 'bout the deal I'm making
You, you and me

Chorus 1 :
And if I only could
I'd make a deal with God
And I'd get him to swap our places
Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
Be running up that building
If I only could

You don't want to hurt me
But see how deep the bullet lies
Unaware I'm tearing you asunder
There is thunder in our hearts
Is there so much hate for the ones we love
Tell me we both matter (don't we)
You, you and me
You and me won't be unhappy

Repeat Chorus 1

You, you and me
You and me won't be unhappy
C'mon baby c'mon darling
Let me steal this moment from you now
C'mon angel c'mon c'mon darling
Let's exchange the experience

Chorus 2 :
And if I only could
I'd make a deal with God
And I'd get him to swap our places
Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
Be running up that building
With no problems

This is the story of
Melody Nelson
Apart from me no one
Ever took her in his arms
Under her thumb
Eyes in the sun Oh my Melody mine
Oh my Melody mine She has nothing but love
Poor
Melody Nelson
Her life was more said than done
But her days were numbered
Count fourteen falls
Fifteen on calls A baby tiger was
Melody Nelson
Forever purring in the sun
Just as dangerous as a child
With a gun, shooting me down

Oh my Melody mine
Melody Nelson
Still playing hurting games for fun
As adorable as dumb
Deaf to the sound
To what's going down
Down
Down

With your feet on the air and your head on the ground
Try this trick and spin it, yeah
Your head will collapse
and there's nothing in it
and you'll ask yourselfWhere is my mind (3x)Way out in the water
See it swimmin'I was swimmin' in the Carribean
Animals were hiding behind the rock
Except the little fish
But they told me east is west
Tryin' to talk to me coy koiWhere is my mind (3x)Way out in the water
See it swimmin' With your feet on the air and your head on the ground
Try this trick and spin it, yeah
Your head will collapse
and there's nothing in it
and you'll ask yourselfWhere is my mind (3x)

Way out in the water
See it swimmin'

Ooooh
With your feet in the air and your head on the ground
Ooooh
Try this trick and spin it, yeah

JACKIE
[Sinead O'Connor]
[incluido en single> This Picture dvd]
[incluido en cd2 SWG Special Edition]

Jackie left on a cold, dark night
telling me he'd be home
sailed the seas for a hundred years
leaving me all alone

and I've been dead for twenty years
I've been washing the sand with my ghostly tears
searching the shores for my Jackie-oh I remember the day the young man came
said, your Jackie's gone, got lost in the rain
and I ran to the beach
and laid me down you're all wrong, I said
and they stared at the sand
that man knows the sea like the back of his hand
he'll be back some time
laughing at you

and I've been waiting all this time
for my man to come, take his hand in mine
and lead me away
to swanset shores

I've been washing the sand with my salty tears
searching the shore these long years
and I'll walk the sea forever more
'til I find my Jackie-oh
