"How Soon Is Now?" lyrics

"How Soon Is Now?"

I am the son, I am the heir
Of a shyness that is criminally vulgar
I am the son and heir of nothing in particular

You shut your mouth, how can you say
I go about things the wrong way
I am human and I need to be loved
Just like everybody else does

I am the son, I am the heir
Of a shyness that is criminally vulgar
I'm the son and heir of nothing in particular

There is a club if you'd like to go
You could meet someone who really loves you
So you go and you stand on your own
And you leave on your own
And you go home and you cry and you want to die

When you say it's gonna happen now
What exactly do you mean?
See I've already waited too long
And all my hope is gone


Writer(s): Steven Patrick Morrissey, Johnny Marr
