Thread: Help!! Moz quotes/lyrics for a tattoo!

    Default Need Help with Lyrics/quotes!

    Ok, So I am doing a "visual diary" for one of my rather conceptual classes, and basically I have to keep a log of my daily life through visuals and add a caption at the bottom of each visual.

    I wanted to do the whole thing using morrissey lyrics for the captions (my professor loves shit like that). So I need help thinking of relevant lyrics/quotes from moz, my brain is empty at the moment....

    Right now I need quotes about:

    Being Inspired
    Being Fustrated/about to snap

    any help would be appreciated, thanks!

    How about most of the lyrics to Speedway?
    "I'd rather be strongly wrong than weakly right."

    It goes (I think): "And I have spent my whole life in ruins/Because of people who are nice"

    Also, it's not a lyric but there is a Mogs quote from some TV show where he talks about the inspiration he took from walking the streets around his teenage home and says it was "...perfect fuel. And I would go home and write furiously," or similar, it's totally beautiful. It sounds crap in print but the way he says the words are so lush! If I can find it on youtube I will post it later.

    Er, that's it...but there must be bloody thousands, eh? Also, it's not really about frustration...well, it is but only in terms of other humans:

    "When you find that you've organised your feelings for people/Who didn't like you then and do not like you now"

    I know I haven't really answered the question, but these came to mind!

    Exclamation Help!! Moz quotes/lyrics for a tattoo!

    Hello.

    I am going through a mid life crisis (well an early one, I'm 32) and thinking a tattoo would look nice on my wrist. I was thinking of 'Viva Hate' but am aware this is a name of a dreadul US band (I believe also?) what lyric would make a good tattoo, do we think?

    Any help greatly appreciated.

    Why did you stick me in self-deprecating bones and skin? (Actually, thats probably a bit too much to fit round a wrist)

    certainly Spike...you showed me and my friend around Leicester Square and bought me a beer..how could I say no??

    Darren

    since the symbol is an M, I might as well get morrissey written out keeping the symbol the way it is
