I Like You

Morrissey · Live From Earls Court [2005]

Something in you caused me

to take a new tact with you

You were going through something

I had just about scraped through



Why'd you think I let you get away

with the things you say to me?



Could it be

I like you?

It's so shameful of me

I like you



No one I ever knew

or have spoken to resembles you

This is good and bad

all depending on my general mood



Why'd you think I let you get away

with all the things you say to me?



Could it be

I like you?

It's so shameful of me

I like you



Magistrates who spend their lives

hiding their mistakes

They look at you and I

and envy makes them cry

Envy makes them cry



Forces of containment

They shove their fat faces into mine

You and I just smile

because we're thinking the same line



Why'd you think I let you get away

with all the things you say to me?



Could it be

I like you?

It's so shameful of me

I like you



You're not right in the head

and nor am I, and this is why

You're not right in the head,

and nor am I, and this is why



This is why I like you, I like you, I like you

This is why I like you, I like you, I like you



You're not right in the head,

and nor am I, and this is why

You're not right in the head,

and nor am I, and this is why



This is why I like you, I like you, I like you...
