He can't dance or sing
He can't do anything
But what the Hell,
The kid's a looker
 
Just add cash and stir
And there you are - another nonsense non-star
 
There's no pretense
This kid is dense
But what the Hell,
The kid's a looker


==Personnel==
Just add cash and stir
And the crass consumers line up shoulder to shoulder


* [[Morrissey]] - Vocals <br>
Some time through the night
* [[Boz Boorer]] - Guitars<br>
The kid took his life
* [[Jesse Tobias]] - Guitars<br>
So very sad, however, do not call this number again
* [[Solomon Walker]] - Bass guitar<br>
We're busy molding the face of the kid's replacement, yeah
