Wor(l)d of Morrissey
  We're back! Welcome to the world of Morrissey's lyrics.

This site and all of the work made to keep it updated during the last 26 years are dedicated to my beloved friend MaCa65 who suddenly left this lonely planet
and me without words. Throughout the short stretch of time that we have been given to spend together as close friends, we shared many things,
thoughts, afternoons, views, passions and some bits of Life. Back in 1983, together we discovered a band called The Smiths and together since then, we followed Morrissey's career
as one of the most influential and inspiring singer/artist/poet of our age. Maca65 has always been a strong supporter since when I first launched WoM,
so this is and will always be entirely for you, my friend. -- David

Best Friend On The Payroll

I turn the music down
And I don't know why, this is my house
I turn the music down
And I don't know why, this is my house
The best friend on the payroll
No.. it's not gonna work out
It's not gonna work out
No..
The best friend on the payroll
Oh, no.. it's not gonna work out
It's not gonna work out

More breakfast in bed, and I'll bring the paper in later
The best friend on the payroll
Oh, no.. it's not gonna work out
It's not gonna work out
No..
The best friend on the payroll
Oh, no.. it's not gonna work out
It's not gonna work out

More breakfast in bed, and I'll bring the paper in later
The best friend on the payroll
No.. it's not gonna work out
It's not gonna work out
No..
The best friend on the payroll
No.. it's not gonna work out
It's not gonna work out

Who is the best friend on the payroll? Supposedly this song is about Jake Walters (see A Swallow On My Neck for more info).

Il migliore amico sul libro paga

Abbasso la musica
e non so perché, questa è casa mia
Abbasso la musica
e non so perché, questa è casa mia
Il miglior amico sul libro paga
No.. non funzionerà
Non funzionerà
No..
Il miglior amico sul libro paga
Oh no.. non funzionerà
Non funzionerà

Altra colazione a letto e "porterò i giornali più tardi"
Il miglior amico sul libro paga
Oh no.. non funzionerà
Non funzionerà
No..
Il miglior amico sul libro paga
Oh no.. non funzionerà
Non funzionerà

Chi è il migliore amico sul libro paga? Probabilmente il testo parla di Jake Walters (cfr. A Swallow On My Neck per maggiori informazioni).
