Fascinating... I am sure I posted this earlier today... but LJ does not seem to like The Smiths to much

And if a double-decker bus crashes into us
To die by your side is such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten-ton truck kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure, the privilege is mine

There were times when I could have strangled her
But, you know, I would hate anything to happen to her
Would you please let me see her!

And if you have five seconds to spare
Then I'll tell you the story of my life
Sixteen, clumsy and shy I went to London and I
I said, I like it here, can I stay?
Do you have a vacancy for a backscrubber?

Hand in glove, we can go wherever we please
And everything depends upon how near you stand to me
And if the people stare, then the people stare
Oh, I really don't know and I really don't care
Hand in glove, the Good People laugh
Yes, we may be hidden by rags
But we've something they'll never have

In my life, why do I give valuable time
To people who don't care if I live or die?

How can you say, I go about things the wrong way
I am human and I need to be loved
Just like everybody else does

If you're so funny, then why are you on your own tonight?
And if you're so clever, then why are you on your own tonight?
If you're so very entertaining, then why are you on your own tonight?
If you're so very good-looking, why do you sleep alone tonight?
I know... cause tonight is just like any other night
That's why you're on your own tonight

I won't share you, no I won't share you
With the drive and the dreams inside, this is my time

I need advice, I need advice
Nobody ever looks at me twice

And if the day came when I felt a natural emotion
I'd get such a shock I'd probably jump in the ocean
And when a train goes by, it's such a sad sound
And when I'm lying in my bed
I think about life and I think about death
And neither one particularly appeals to me
And if the day came when I felt a natural emotion
I'd get such a shock I'd probably lie
In the middle of the street and die
I'd lie down and die

Haven't had a dream in a long time
See, the life I've had can make a good man bad
So for once in my life, let me get what I want
Lord knows it would be the first time

Now I'm outside your house, I'm alone
And I'm outside your house, I hate to intrude
Oh alone, I'm alone
I'm alone, I'm alone, I'm alone, I'm alone
And I never, never oh... had no one ever
I never had no one ever

Don't forget the songs that made you cry
And the songs that saved your life
Yes, you're older now, and you're a clever swine
But they were the only ones who ever stood by you

How can they see the love in our eyes
And still they don't believe us?
And after all this time, they don't want to believe us
And if they don't believe us now
Will they ever believe us?

I'll still be by your side
For you are all that matters
And I'll love you to till the day I die
There never need to be longing in your eyes
