Lyrics of You've Got Everything Now - Live by The Smiths
verse
As merry as the days were long
I am right and you are wrong
Back at the old grey school
I would win and you would lose
But you've got everything now
You've got everything now
And what a terrible mess I've made of my life
Oh what a mess I've made of my life
verse
No, I've never had a job
Because I've never wanted one
I've seen you smile
But I never heard you laugh
pre-chorus
So who is rich and who is poor
I cannot say
chorus
You are your mother's only son
And you're a desperate one
But I don't want a lover
I just want to be seen
In the back of your car
verse
A friendship sadly lost
Well, this is true and yet it's false
But did I ever tell you, by the way
I never did like your face
But you've got everything now
You've got everything now
And what a terrible mess I've made of my life
Oh what a mess I've made of my life
chorus
No, I've never had a job
Because I'm too shy
I've seen you smile
But I never really heard you laugh
pre-chorus
So who is rich and who is poor
I cannot say
chorus
You are your mother's only son
And you're a desperate one
But I don't want a lover
I just want to be tied
To the back of your car
Writer(s): Steven Patrick Morrissey, Johnny Marr
