I've always imagined Halo by Texas to be like a Maladjusted-era Morrissey effort.
Songs that sound like they could've been Morrissey songs

Musically and vocally not so much, but lyrically any song by Belle & Sebastian.

When I heard Cornerstone by Arctic Monkeys for the first time, I thought it was Morrissey! The lyrics, the music and the way it is sung are very Morrisseyesque in my opinion.
And I always thought 'I started a joke' by The Bee Gees could be a Morrissey song.

Pissing in a river by - patti smith- the outspoken punk goddess! - the greatest poet and artist that has ever lived! 
A wonderfull painter 2, not really known and apprecaited for this .. ohhhh but I do!
The positive emotinal energy in pissing in a river is just incredible!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and can only equaled by our very own gothic pricess! - the wonderfull miss kristeen young hereself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And of course - the one who makes life worth living - morrissey!
"Pissing in a river, watching it rise
Tattoo fingers shy away from me
Voices voices mesmerize
Voices voices beckoning sea
please Come back to me.
Spoke of a wheel, tip of a spoon
Mouth of a cave, I'm a slave I'm free.
When are you coming ? Hope you come soon
Fingers, fingers encircling thee
Come come come come come come
Come come come come come come for me oh
My bowels are empty, excreting your soul
What more can I give you ? Baby I don't know
What more can I give you to make this thing grow?
Don't turn your back now, I'm talking to you
Should I pursue a path so twisted ?
Should I crawl defeated and gifted ?
Should I go the length of a river
The royal, the throne, the cry me a river
Everything I've done, I've done for you
Oh I give my life for you.
Every move I made I made for you ,
Oh Id give my life for you
What about it, you gonna leave me,
What about it, you don't need me,
What about it, I can't live without you,
What about it, I never doubted you
What about it ? What about it ?
What about it ? What about it ?
Should I pursue a path so twisted ?
Should I crawl defeated and gifted ?
Should I go the length of a river,
[The royal, the throne, the cry me a river]
What about it, what about it, what about it ?
Oh, I'm pissing in a river "
Pissing in a river is possibly the greatest love song ever written and would suit morrissey perfectly!

They certainly wear their influences on their sleeves. It reminds me more of James actually.
