I Want The One I Can't Have Lyrics - Meat Is Murder - The Smiths

On the day that your mentality 

Decides to try to catch up with your biology 

Come 'round 'cause I want the one I can't have 

And it's driving me mad 

It's all over, all over, all over my face 

On the day that your mentality 

Catches up with your biology 

I want the one I can't have 

And it's driving me mad 

It's all over, all over, all over my face 

A double bed and a stalwart lover for sure 

These are the riches of the poor 

A double bed and a stalwart lover for sure 

These are the riches of the poor 

And I want the one I can't have 

And it's driving me mad 

It's all over, all over my face 

A tough kid who sometimes swallows nails 

Raised on prisoner's aid 

He killed a policeman when he was thirteen 

And somehow that really impressed me 

But it's written all over my face 

Oh, these are the riches of the poor 

These are the riches of the poor 

I want the one I can't have 

And it's driving me mad 

It's written all over my face 

On the day that your mentality 

Catches up with your biology 

And if you ever need self-validation 

Just meet me in the alley by the railway station 

It's all over my face
