Funniest Moz Lyric

[Practising Troublemaker]

I love the line "And now 18 months hard labour seems...fair enough?"
an also "But sometimes I feel more fulfilled making Christmas cards for the mentally ill".

 

[cossy]

Right now for me it's "Who can make Hitler seem like a bus conductor?"

From an underrated song too.

And yours?[/QUOTE

i am embarassed to ask what song is that lyric from?

cossy

 

[murder and desire]

There are so many, many, many-it's not just the words it's the phrasing dear.
Some have already been mentioned above so i won't go over old ground there.

But in 'Is It Really So Strange', for no reason what so ever, he lets us know
" I left my bag in NewPort Pagnel"
Genius!!!!!!

 

[Jukebox Jury]

Thats not funny, thats awful sad

You mean in your opinion you think it is not funny. Not 'that is not funny'. The latter is stating a fact. There is a difference.
I find it funny.

[the more you explore me!]

Give us a drink
and make it quick
or else I'm gonna be sick
all over
your frankly vulgar
red pullover
now see how the two colours blend

I think it is from the unreleasd but brilliant Oh Phoney

 

[suave harv]

Sponge and a rusty spanner/piana

A smile lights up your stupid face (and well it would!)

Newport Pagnell

Backscrubber

 

[lilikoi]

each household appliance is like a new science in my town.

[CeciDeMorrissey]

And the doctor said "Don't nod your head until June..."

I really find the whole "Pregnant For The Last Time" ironical and funny...

 

[Bluebirds]

I Have Forgiven Jesus.

 

[Please]

Does'nt the fact that i said it indicate it is my opinion. Its not like any of this thread is based on any kind of fact other than the fact of opinion, which as a matter of fact makes your argument re....dundant

i was just pointing out that i found that line tragic, no need for you to take so much offence

 

[meat_is_murder19]

You're the One for Me, Fatty

 

[thursdayispathetic]

definately youre the one for me fatty , that whole song is funny

and of course girlfriend in a coma...

i know, i know... its really serious.

 

[Young And Alive]

I think it is from the unreleasd but brilliant Oh Phoney

It is indeed.

"Oh Phoney!" by Morrissey

May this lovely letter
reach its destination
if only
Question one is why do you
pretend that you like me?
Oh Phoney
See how the outside
contradicts what's inside
oooooh ooh

Who can make Hitler
seem like a bus conductor?
You do, oh Phoney you do

You sing a lovely song to a scale
and the words spell out my name
Oh Phoney
but then you kick me down below
cause you know it won't show
how could you?

See how the outside
contradicts what's inside
oooooh ooh

Who can make Hitler
seem like a bus conductor?

you do oh Phoney oh Phoney you do
you do oh Phoney oh Phoney you do
you do oh Phoney oh Phoney you do

It's not a song I would recommend to someone who is new to Morrissey's work. The music and lyrics wouldn't seem out of place on Kill Uncle, but I think it's a charming little song, and it includes a wonderful if unconventional vocal performance from Moz!

 

[nocturn0wl]

Oh, and also:

spending warm summer days indoors
writing frightening verse
to a buck-toothed girl in Luxembourg

 

[westendgirl]

^^ I have to say that line makes me chuckle.

 

[Taylorrissey]

Don't talk to me about people who are nice
i have spent my whole life in ruins
BECAUSE OF PEOPLE WHO ARE NICE.

 

[mahan]

This is the last song I will ever sing...

And then the crowd cheers.

Very funny.

These lyrics are funny albeit in a very cringeworthy sort of way
