Morrissey - I Knew I Was Next

So what do you think I am? And how precisely could you tell. A decent skin is all I am? People think badly of me, But one day maybe they'll praise. Oh but meanwhile... I knew I was next, And I didn't mind. Here I offer you my life for any debts you're due, And when you've been down for the very last time. There is nothing anyone can do to hurt you. The shadows of trees, they reach to me They know a decent skin is all I am People think badly of me, But when I'm in grave maybe they'll praise. Oh but meanwhile... I knew I was next, And I didn't mind. Here I offer you my life for any debts you're due, And when you've been down for the very last time. There is nothing anyone can do to hurt you. Oh but meanwhile... I knew I was next, And I didn't mind. When you've been slapped around, And one more slap can't hurt you. And when you've been down for the very last time. There is nothing anyone can do to hurt you. I knew I was next, And I didn't mind. When you've been slapped around, And one more slap can't hurt you. And when you've been down for the very last time. There is nothing anyone can say to hurt you.
