Speedway - Morrissey

And when you slam

down the hammer

Can you see it in your heart?

All of the rumours keeping me rounded

I never said that they were

completely unfounded

So when you slam down the hammer

Can you see it in your heart?

Can you delve so low?

And when you’re standing on my fingers

Can you see it in your heart?

And when you try to break my spirit

It won’t work

because there’s nothing left to break anymore

All of the rumours keeping me rounded

I never said that they were

completely unfounded

You won’t sleep

until the earth that wants me Finally has me oh you’ve done it now

You won’t rest

until the heart that becomes me Finally takes me oh you’ve done it now

And you won’t smile

until my loving mouth

is shut good and proper FOREVER

All of the rumours keeping my rounded

I never said that they were

completely unfounded

and all those lies

writtens lies, twisted lies

well, they weren’t lies

they weren’t lies

they weren’t lies

I never said I never said

I could have mentioned your name

I could have dragged you in guilt by implication

by association

I’ve always been true to you

in my own strange way

I’ve always been true to you

in my own sick way

I’ll always stay true to you
