Smiths - London & Sweet and Tender Hooligan (do álbum de singles e b-sides editado na américa "Louder than Bombs" )

(como na sexta-feira não postei nada dos smiths aqui vão duas de seguida)



Smoke lingers 'round your fingers
Train heave on to Euston
Do you think you've made the right decision this time?

You left your tired family grieving
And you think they're sad because you're leaving
But did you see jealousy in the eyes
Of the ones who had to stay behind?
And do you think you've made the right decision this time?

You left your girlfriend on the platform
With this really ragged notion that you'll return
But she knows that when he goes
He really goes
And do you think you've made the right decision this time?





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 said that he'd 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-by-five
But that's o.k.
Because he wasn't very happy anyway
Poor woman
Strangled in her very on bed as she read
But that's o.k.
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 debt 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, fee me, free me?
Jury will you free me?
Will you find me?
Will you free me? 
Will you find me?
How will you find me, find me, find me, find me, find me, find me, find me?
Oh etc! etc! etc! etc! etc! etc!
Etc! etc! etc! etc!
In the midst of life we are in death etc!
Oh...oh...
