Information
The alternate take of this track was included on the Complete deluxe edition vinyl 7" collection box set.
From Uncut Magazine , August 1998 (Pt.1):
"Morrissey had this song, 'I Keep Mine Hidden' which was basically Morrissey saying, 'I'm sorry Johnny, I'm a complete f*** up but please forgive me,'" reveals Grant Showbiz. "With lots of specific references, it was a very direct song."
Also released as a live version by Morrissey on the Something Is Squeezing My Skull 7" vinyl single (Polydor/Decca 4781877).
Lyrics
Hate, love, and war Force emotions to the fore But not for me Of course, of course I keep mine hidden
I keep mine hidden But it's so easy for you Because you let yours flail into public view
Yellow and green A stumbling block I'm a twenty-digit combination to unlock With a past where to be "touched" Meant to be "mental"
I keep mine hidden But life is so easy for you Because you let yours slide into public view
Use your loaf
