Stop Me If You Think You've Heard This One Before

The Smiths · The Smiths Complete [2011]

Stop me, stop me

stop me if you think that you've

heard this one before

stop me, stop me

stop me if you think that you've

heard this one before

nothing's changed

I still love you, oh I still love you

. . .only slightly less than I used to

I was delayed, I was way-laid

an emergency stop

I smelt the last ten seconds of life

I crashed down on the crossbar

and the pain was enough to make

a shy, bald buddhist reflect

and plan a mass-murder

who said I'd lied to her?

who said I'd lied because I never

who said I'd lied because I never

I was detained, I was restrained

he broke my spleen

he broke my knees

(and then he really laid into me)

Friday night in Out-patients

who said I'd lied to her?

who said I'd lied - because I never

who said I'd lied - because I never

Oh, so I drank one

or was it four

and when I fell on the floor

. . .I drank more

stop me, stop me

stop me if you think that you've

heard this one before

nothing's changed

I still love you

I still love you

but only slightly

less than I used to
