The Smiths - Sweet and Tender Hooligan lyrics
[The Smiths - Sweet and Tender Hooligan lyrics]
He was a sweet and tender hooligan, hooligan
And he said that he'd never
Never do it again and of course he won't
(oh, not until the next time)
He was a sweet and tender hooligan, hooligan
And he swore that he'll never
Never do it again and of course he won't
(oh, not until the next time)
Poor old man
He had an accident with a three bar fire
But that's OK
Because he wasn't very happy anyway
Poor woman
Strangled in her very own bed as she read
But that's OK because she was old and she
Would have died anyway
Don't blame the sweet and tender hooligan
Hooligan because he'll never, never
Never, never, never, never do it again
Not until the next time
Jury, you've heard every word
So before you decide
Would you look into those "Mother me" eyes?
I love you for you my love
You my love, you my love, you my love
Jury, you've heard every word
But before you decide
Would you look into those "Mother me" eyes?
I love you for you my love, you my love
I love you just for you my love
Don't blame the sweet and tender hooligan
Hooligan
Because he'll never, never do it again
And in the midst of life we are in death, etc
Sweet and tender hooligan, hooligan
Because he'll never, never do it again
And in the midst of life we are in death, etc
Etcetera, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera
In the midst of life we are in debt, etc
Etcetera, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera
In the midst of life we are in debt, etc
Just will you free me? Will you find me?
Will you free me? Will you find me?
Will you free me, free me, free me
Free me, free me, free me, free me?
Jury will you free me? Will you find me?
Will you free me? Will you find me?
How will you find me, find me, find
Me, find me, find me, find me, find me?
Etcetera, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera
Etcetera etcetera!
Etcetera, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera
In the midst of life we are in debt, etc
Oh, oh
And he said that he'd never
Never do it again and of course he won't
(oh, not until the next time)
He was a sweet and tender hooligan, hooligan
And he swore that he'll never
Never do it again and of course he won't
(oh, not until the next time)
Poor old man
He had an accident with a three bar fire
But that's OK
Because he wasn't very happy anyway
Poor woman
Strangled in her very own bed as she read
But that's OK because she was old and she
Would have died anyway
Don't blame the sweet and tender hooligan
Hooligan because he'll never, never
Never, never, never, never do it again
Not until the next time
Jury, you've heard every word
So before you decide
Would you look into those "Mother me" eyes?
I love you for you my love
You my love, you my love, you my love
Jury, you've heard every word
But before you decide
Would you look into those "Mother me" eyes?
I love you for you my love, you my love
I love you just for you my love
Don't blame the sweet and tender hooligan
Hooligan
Because he'll never, never do it again
And in the midst of life we are in death, etc
Sweet and tender hooligan, hooligan
Because he'll never, never do it again
And in the midst of life we are in death, etc
Etcetera, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera
In the midst of life we are in debt, etc
Etcetera, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera
In the midst of life we are in debt, etc
Just will you free me? Will you find me?
Will you free me? Will you find me?
Will you free me, free me, free me
Free me, free me, free me, free me?
Jury will you free me? Will you find me?
Will you free me? Will you find me?
How will you find me, find me, find
Me, find me, find me, find me, find me?
Etcetera, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera
Etcetera etcetera!
Etcetera, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera
In the midst of life we are in debt, etc
Oh, oh
