LYRICS
Still Ill - The Smiths
I decree today that life
Is simply taking and not giving
England is mine it owes me a living
But ask me why and I'll spit in your eye
Oh ask me why and I'll spit in your eye
But we cannot cling
To the old dreams anymore
No we cannot cling to those dreams
Does the body rule the mind
Or does the mind rule the body
I don′t know
Under the iron bridge we kissed
And although I ended up with sore lips
It just wasn't like the old days anymore
No it wasn't like those days
Am I still ill
Oh
Am I still ill Oh
Does the body rule the mind
Or does the mind rule the body
I don′t know
Ask me why and I'll die
Oh ask me why and I'll die
And if you must go to work tomorrow
Well if I were you I wouldn't bother
For there are brighter sides to life
And I should know because I've seen them
But not very often
Under the iron bridge we kissed
And although I ended up with sore lips
It just wasn't like the old days anymore
No it wasn't like those days
Am I still ill
Oh
Oh am I still ill
Oh
