Artist/Band: Morrissey
Lyrics for Song: First Of The Gang To Die
Lyrics for Album: Greatest Hits (Deluxe Version) [2008]



You have never been in love

until you've seen the stars

reflect in the reservoirs



And you have never been in love

until you've seen the dawn rise

behind the home for the blind



We are the pretty petty thieves

and you're standing on our streets

where Hector was the

first of the gang with a gun in his hand

and the first to do time

the first of the gang to die

Oh my



Hector was the first of the gang

with a gun in his hand

and the first to do time

the first of the gang to die

Oh my



You have never been in love

until you've seen the sunlight thrown

over smashed human bone



We are the pretty petty thieves

and you're standing on our streets

where Hector was the first of the gang

with a gun in his hand

and the first to do time

the first of the gang to die

such a silly boy



Hector was the first of the gang

with a gun in his hand

and a bullet in his gullet

and the first lost lad

to go under the sod



And he stole from the rich and the poor

and the not very rich and the very poor

and he stole all hearts away

He stole all hearts away

He stole all hearts away

Away...

He stole all hearts away

Away...

He stole all hearts away

Away...

He stole all hearts away

Away...
