I Knew I Was Next
Morrissey
I KNEW I WAS NEXT | | | | | | | | So what do you think I am and how precisely could you tell A decent skin is all I am People think badly of me But one day maybe they’ll praise. Oh but meanwhile I knew I was next and I didn’t mind Here I offer you my life for any debts are due And when you’ve been down for the very last time There is nothing anyone can do to hurt you The shadows of trees they reach me They know a decent skin is all I am People think badly of me But when I’m in my grave maybe they’ll praise. Oh but meanwhile I knew I was next and I didn’t mind Here I offer you my life for any debts are due And when you’ve been down for the very last time There is nothing anyone can do to hurt you | | | | | | | | | | oh but meanwhile I knew I was next and I didn’t mind oh when you’ve been slapped around then one more slap can’t hurt you and when you’ve been down for the very last time there is nothing anyone can do to hurt you I knew I was next and I didn’t mind oh when you’ve been slapped around then one more slap can’t hurt you and when you’ve been down for the very last time there is nothing anyone can say to hurt you | | | |
