Nowhere Fast Lyrics - Vol. 2 - Best Of The Smiths - The Smiths

I'd like to drop my trousers to the world 

I am a man of means, of slender means 

Each household appliance 

Is like a new science in my town 

And if the day came when I felt a natural emotion 

I'd get such a shock I'd probably jump in the ocean 

And when a train goes by, it's such a sad sound 

No, no, no, no, no 

It's such a sad thing 

I'd like to drop my trousers to the Queen 

Every sensible child will know what this means 

The poor and the needy 

Are selfish and greedy on her terms 

And if the day came when I felt a natural emotion 

I'd get such a shock I'd probably jump in the ocean 

And when a train goes by, it's such a sad sound 

No, no, no, no, no 

It's such a sad thing 

And when I'm lying in my bed 

I think about life And I think about death 

And neither one particularly appeals to me 

And if the day came when I felt a natural emotion 

I'd get such a shock I'd probably lie 

In the middle of the street and die 

I'd lie down and die, oh-oh
