The Father Who Must Be Killed Lyrics - Ringleader Of The Tormentors - Morrissey

Step-child, you have outlived your time 

You represent embarrassment and failure 

And the Father who must be killed 

Is the blight upon your blighted life 

And his might is his legal right 

To ground you down 

Step-child, with every petty swipe 

You just might find you're fighting for your life 

And the father who must be killed 

Is a step-father but nonetheless 

The way he chews his food 

Rips right through your senses

Step-child, there's a knife in a drawer in a room downstairs 

And you, you know what you must do 

So the step-child ran with a knife to his sleeping frame 

And slams it in his arms, his legs, his face, his neck and says 

"There's a law against me now" 

And the Father who must be killed 

With his dying breath, he grabs her hand 

And he looks into her eyes 

He says "I'm sorry" and he dies 

"Step-child, I release you 

With this broken voice I beseech you"

"Why are lives so short?" 

The step-child thought heart pointing to the sky 

"No one to warn me 

No hand to touch me 

And no Bible-belters to mess with me 

Momma don't miss me 

Momma don't miss me 

This death will complete me" 

"But where I go there will be no one to meet me 

I know there will be no one to meet me" 

But still the step-child pressed the knife to her throat 

Heart pointing to the sky 

"Just as Motherless birds fly high 

Then... so shall I 

So shall I 

So shall I 

So shall I 

So shall I"
