Half A Person Lyrics - The World Won't Listen - The Smiths

Call me morbid, call me pale 

I've spent six years on your trail 

Six long years on your trail 

Call me morbid, call me pale 

I've spent six years on your trail 

Six full years of my life on your trail 

And if you have five seconds to spare 

Then I'll tell you the story of my life 

Sixteen, clumsy and shy 

I went to London and I 

I booked myself in at the Y.W.C.A. 

I said, "I like it here, can I stay? 

I like it here, can I stay? 

Do you have a vacancy for a back-scrubber?" 

She was left behind and sour 

And she wrote to me equally dour 

She said, "In the days when you were 

Hopelessly poor, I just liked you more" 

And if you have five seconds to spare 

Then I'll tell you the story of my life 

Sixteen, clumsy and shy 

I went to London and I 

I booked myself in at the Y.W.C.A 

I said, "I like it here, can I stay? 

I like it here can I stay? 

And do you have a vacancy for a back-scrubber?" 

Call me morbid, call me pale 

I've spent too long on your tail 

Far too long, chasing your tail 

And if you have five seconds to spare 

Then I'll tell you the story of my life 

Sixteen, clumsy and shy 

That's the story of my life 

Sixteen, clumsy and shy 

The story of my life 

That's the story of my life 

That's the story of my life 

That's the story of my life 

Story of my life 

That's the story of my life 

That's the story of my life 

That's the story of my life 

...
