I Swerve for Morrissey



Best bumper sticker ever, thanks Clare



P.S. (3 months later) For the people who keep coming here looking to get one, why wouldn't you it's fab, I am afraid I can offer no link. The sticker was bought at a concert and I can't find an online source to point you to. There is a Morrissey official(?) store for US customers at http://morrissey.shop.bravadousa.com/ and for those lucky people in the rest of the World at http://www.bandstores.co.uk/shop/654321/ that has some stickers, not this one mind.

There are also numerous other outlets, a good one is Everything English additionally one item I like is this from CafePress.

You know also its often best to make your own things!

Still ill?

Morrissey has just been released from Hospital in Swindon, after collapsing during a concert the previous day. He appears to be on the mend. No word however on the state of his hair. From the look of this photo taken in October, something is not right. How can a man with hair in such need of care be released from hospital? Don't people realise anything?





The Harsh Truth of the Camera Eye

Churchillian legs
hair barely there
the harsh truth of the camera eye

Your eyes signal pain
because of the strain
of smiling
the harsh truth of the camera eye

telling you all
that you never wanted to know
showing what
you didn't want shown

My so friendly lens
zooms into
'the inner you'
and it tells the harsh truth
and nothing but

Laugh with us all here
that's if you can
then take the pictures home
and scream

telling you all
that you never wanted to know
showing you what
you didn't want shown

This photographer
he must have really had it in for you

Oh, I don't want
to be judged anymore
I don't want to be judged
I would sooner be loved
I would sooner be
just blindly loved

Sing your life





Sing your life
Any fool can think of words that rhyme
Many others do
Why don't you?
Do you want to?
Oh...
Sing your life
Walk right up to the microphone
And name
All the things you love
All the things that you loathe

Oh, sing your life
The things that you love
And the things you loathe
Oh, sing your life
Oh, sing your life

La, la-la, la-la, sing your life
La, la-la, la-la, sing your life

Others sang your life
But now is a chance to shine
And have the pleasure of
Saying what you mean
Have the pleasure of
Meaning what you sing
Oh, make no mistake my friend
All of this will end
So sing it now (sing your life)
All the things you love (sing your life)
All the things you loathe
Oh, sing your life
The things that you love
And the things you loathe (sing your life)
Oh, sing oh...
Oh, sing oh...

La, la-la, la-la, sing your life
La, la-la, la-la, sing your life

Don't leave it all unsaid
Somewhere in the wasteland of your head, oh
Head, oh, head, oh, head, oh
And make no mistake, my friend
Your pointless life will end
But before you go
Can you look at the truth?
You have a lovely singing voice
A lovely singing voice
And all of those
Who sing on-key
They stole the notion
From you and me
So, sing your life (sing your life)
Sing your life (sing your life)
Oh, sing your oh...
Oh, sing your
Sing your life
Sing your life
Sing your life
Oh, sing your oh...
- Morrissey
