LYRICS
Sweet And Tender Hooligan - The Smiths
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 "
Don't forget the hooligan
Hooligan
Because he'll never
Never do it again
And
"In the midst of life
We are in death 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 death ETC
Just will you free me
Will you find me
Will you free me
Will you find me
Will you free me
Free me free me
Free me free me
Free me free me
Jury will you free me
Will you find me
Will you free me

Oh ETC ETC ETC ETC ETC ETC

In the midst of life
We are in death ETC
