Morrissey Sweet And Tender Hooligan Lyrics

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.

Forget the hooligan, hooligan 

Because he'll never, never do it again 

And ... 

In the midst of life we are in debt ETC.

ETC! ETC! ETC! ETC! 

IN THE MIDST OF LIFE WE ARE IN DEATH ETC! 

ETC! ETC! ETC! ETC! 

IN THE MIDST OF LIFE WE ARE IN DEBT ETC! 

Just ... 

Just ... 

ETC! ETC! ETC! ETC! ETC! ETC!

ETC! ETC! ETC! ETC! 

IN THE MIDST OF LIFE WE ARE IN DEBT ETC
