What the hell is a mom? Sounds like your imaginary sex friend, in fact your only friend JR, you need to plan an escape from that basement or madness beckons!Not what your mom said last night.
Yeah, they absolutely do. Or do you think Frog Chorus is the equal of Yesterday?
And while I would prefer the lyrics to recent songs to be more substantial, let's not pretend that the stuff from 25 years ago was perfect. "Dagenham, Dagenham, Dagenham, Dagenham Dave" and "No, no, no, no it's not gonna work out" were hardly poetry.
You have never heard of the word "mom?" Mom is the person who shit you out when you were born and the person I screw when I'm bored. Got it now, chief?What the hell is a mom? Sounds like your imaginary sex friend, in fact your only friend JR, you need to plan an escape from that basement or madness beckons!
Morrissey makes music for 65yr old men.Oh 1975?. They're awful. They make music for 14yr old girls
Absolute nonsense, they're for the kids so I guess you are one JR...it's all starting to make sense now.
Haven't got a clue what your on about you retard...speak English little boy & get back in your rat infested basement.You have never heard of the word "mom?" Mom is the person who shit you out when you were born and the person I screw when I'm bored. Got it now, chief?
Hilarious nonsense.This song is infinitely more relatable to the average Morrissey fan. Matty Healy is the new poet laureate of Manchester!
Keeping it simple isn't unskilled. He's managed to accuse the press of trying to kill him without a hint of a diatribe. That's discipline.
He's probably too miserable & too mired in YouTube to write anything too complex.
That book that @NealCassidy found, Stop Reading The News**, says (& I believe it) that too much news rewires your brain & kills creativity. I'm now trying to avoid anything not work or Moz related and it's SO difficult.
(**I'll be chucking reading lists at Moz on the 14th).

This is far-out there, but one of my mates said the person in the lyrical question is supposed to be Tommy Robinson. Because the mentioning of 'handsome teeth' is referring to the fact, and you can look at a picture of the man, he has had a lot of work done to his teeth and they're very white (almost Americanised teeth).
It's an unusual theory. It could be just about anyone or even a metaphor but there's something I heard the other day anyway.
Or from the same album, the lyrics for "The Operation", "Reader Meet Author", "The Teachers are Afraid of the Pupils", and "Southpaw" ...
Nothing in the past 5 years comes close...
I thought it was about TR, certainly fits the criteria, but difficult to prove, lol.This is far-out there, but one of my mates said the person in the lyrical question is supposed to be Tommy Robinson.

Mexicans, I presumed: "They have fantastic hair, and fantastic skin, and usually really good teeth."
We will have to agree to disagree on that one...
When there was a poll on this site to rate the albums, Southpaw Grammar came bottom of the pile. A big reason is because the lyrics are certainly the least of Morrissey. He had simply written nowhere near enough words to release an album.
Probably a conscious decision on his part, maybe trying again to make a ‘physical album’. I say again because I
remember reading somewhere that the reason for not putting a lyric sheet in Your Arsenal was because he wanted it to be more of a physical album or listening experience. Also during Southpaw with all his cosmetic fake cuts and bruises I feel he was trying on more of a ‘macho’ (tough) image which also may explain simplifying or a kind of dumbing down of the lyric.
