The More I See

I was a fan in the eighties
A fervent follower
I bought your songs and your LPs
Wore out Hatful of Hollow
I was amazed by your diction
Your Northern affliction
Reeled me round the
Fountain of my youthful
Awkwardness and
Pain and kept me going through the northern rain
It felt like I was not alone

(Ah-Ah-Ah-a-Ah)
But now you're messing with my head
(Ah-Ah-Ah-a-Ah)
Supporting people that I dread
(Ah-Ah-Ah-a-Ah)
It seems to me the King is Dead
(Ah-Ah-Ah-a-Ah)
And it just feels like bigmouth
(Ah-Ah-Ah-a-Ah) strikes again with every word you shed

You were a torch in the darkness
A misfit magnet
You wore your heart on your sleeve and
Helped people to believe that
It was alright to be different
To face down torment
There's a light that
Never goes out and I
Remember all your words
That helped me navigate the universe
It felt like I was not alone

(Ah-Ah-Ah-a-Ah)
But now you're messing with my head
(Ah-Ah-Ah-a-Ah)
Supporting people that I dread
(Ah-Ah-Ah-a-Ah)
It seems to me the King is Dead
(Ah-Ah-Ah-a-Ah)
And it just feels like bigmouth
(Ah-Ah-Ah-a-Ah) strikes again with every word you shed

It was a long time ago though
Thirty five years have passed and woah
That's a life time for some
And moss grows fat on a rolling stone
And yes I used to defend your
Pretentious nature
And your voice which
Grates upon some
But I find it hard these days
To bury all the corpses and to
Look the other way
And I don't care for what you say

(Ah-Ah-Ah-a-Ah)
Because you're messing with my head
(Ah-Ah-Ah-a-Ah)
Supporting people that I dread
(Ah-Ah-Ah-a-Ah)
It seems to me the King is Dead
(Ah-Ah-Ah-a-Ah)
It seems to me the King is Dead

(Ah-Ah-Ah-a-Ah)
The more I see the less I care
(Ah-Ah-Ah-a-Ah)
Oh Morrissey you child of hatred and despair
(Ah-Ah-Ah-a-Ah)
The more I see the less I care
(Ah-Ah-Ah-a-Ah)
Oh Morrissey the end is here
