Lyrics of Pretty Girls Make Graves - Live by The Smiths
verse
Upon the sand, upon the bay
"There is a quick and easy way" you say
Before you illustrate
I'd rather state:
"I'm not the man you think I am
I'm not the man you think I am"
And sorrow's native son
He will not smile for anyone
chorus
And pretty girls make graves
Oh...
verse
End of the pier, end of the bay
You tug my arm, and say:
"Give in to lust, give up to lust, oh
Heaven knows we'll soon be dust... "
pre-chorus
Oh, I'm not the man you think I am
I'm not the man you think I am
verse
And sorrow's native son
He will not rise for anyone
chorus
And pretty girls make graves
Oh, really?
Oh...
verse
I could've been wild and I could've been free
But nature played this trick on me
She wants it now
verse
And she will not wait
But she's too rough and I'm too delicate
Then, on the sand
Another man, he takes her hand
chorus
A smile lights up her face (and well, it would)
I lost my faith in womanhood
I lost my faith in womanhood
I lost my faith...
Oh...
Hand in glove...
The sun shines out of our behinds...
Oh...
Writer(s): Steven Patrick Morrissey, Johnny Marr
