YOU KNOW I COULDN'T LAST
(Morrissey/Whyte/Day)

The whispering
may hurt you
but the printed word
might kill you
the whispering
may hurt you
but the printed word
might kill you
so don't let the blue
the blue eyes fool you
they're just gelignite
loaded and aiming right between your eyes
CDs and t-shirts, promos and God knows, oh
you know I couldn't last
someone please take me home

The teenagers
who love you
they will wake up
yawn and kill you
the teenagers
who love you
they will wake up
yawn and kill you
so don't let the blue
the blue eyes fool you
they're just gelignite
loaded and aiming right between your eyes
CDs and t-shirts, promos, God knows, oh
you know I couldn't last
someone please take me home
there's a cash register ringing and
it weighs so heavy on my back
someone please take me home

The critics who
can't break you
they somehow help to make you
the critics who
can't break you
unwittingly, they make you
so don't let the good days
of the gold discs
creep up and mug you
no no no no no
with evil legal eagles, oh
you know I couldn’t last
accountants rampant, oh
you know I couldn’t last

every-ist and every-ism
thrown my way to stay
and the Northern leeches go on
removing, removing, removing

then in the end
your royalties bring you luxuries
your royalties bring you luxuries
oh but - the squalor of the mind
the squalor of the mind
the squalor of the mind
the squalor of the mind
