Ok, last week I was listening to Your Arsenal with the whole leopard lady in the back of my mind...I was attuned to the words of every song on the disc...and it seems each song can somehow be attributed to this incident. Did he write this for her?!! You know how Morrissey predicted Princess Di's death? Yeah, it's just like that
Yeah I do have too much time on my hands. Actually I'm plotting what animal print I'll wear, how I'm gonna get on stage, and what breath mints to eat.
Indulge me, people...
You’re Gonna Need Someone On Your Side
Well, obviously the title track (tho he didn’t NEED that)
That you'd wasted eight of nine lives (bad kitty)
And here I am! Well, you don't need to look so pleased! (he did not look pleased)
Glamorous Glue
Where is the man you respect? (R-E-S-P-E-C-T…)
How sad are we? We'll let you know but only if - you're really interested (oh, we’re interested!)
We're all smiles then, honest, I swear, it's the turnstiles that make us hostile!
We will descend on anyone unable to defend themselves (Morrissey!)
National Front Disco
"Where is our boy? Oh, we've lost our boy" (the innocence...stolen)
Certain People I know
And when I swing it so, it catches his eye ... Weren't you there? You'd have died!
Certain people I know, they look at danger and they laugh their heads off
They'd sacrifice all of their principles for anything cashable-- I do believe it's terrible
We hate it when our friends become successful (Gawd do we...)
We hate it when our friends become successful…oh, look at those clothes…
And if they're Northern, that makes it even worse and if we can destroy them you bet your life we will destroy them if we can hurt them well, we may as well
It's really laughable ha, ha, ha ... (actually it was cringe-worthy)
You see, it should've been me!!! It could've been me, everybody knows, everybody says so!!
(This one is my favorite!)
You're the One for me, fatty –okay, neither one of them is FAT—play along…
You're the One I really, really love and I will stay promise you'll say if I'm in your way
Seasick Yet Still Docked
Wish I knew the way to reach the one I love there is no way (she found a way)
Wish I had the charm to attract the one I love but you see, I've got no charm (no kiddn)
Tonight I've consumed much more than I can hold oh, this is very clear to you (love it!!)
My love is as sharp as a needle in your eye (or a choke hold on your neck!!)
I know it’s Gonna Happen Someday
My love, wherever you are whatever you are don't lose faith - I know it's gonna happen someday to you (she always told herself it was gonna happen…the day arrived…she never lost faith)
You say that the day just never arrives and it's never seemed so far away
Still, I know it's gonna happen someday to you
Tomorrow
Tomorrow will it really come and if it does come will I still be human? (now you are an animal!)
All I ask of you is one thing that you never do Would you put your arms around me? (I won't tell anyone) (Only what, 3000 people?)
Oh, the pain in my arms, oh, the pain in my legs (this is Morrissey’s part =o)
You don't think I'll make it I never said I wanted to - well did I? (Yes you did)
You'll be happy to know I'm leaving the house to do productive things now. Happy weekend, all.
