Break up the family
by Morrissey

The strange logic of your clumsiest line
stayed emblazoned on my mind
break up the family
and lets begin to live our lives
I went to see all my friends tonight
it wasn´t Youth, it wasn´t even Life
born Old, sadly wise
resigned (well, we were)
to ending our lives
I´m so glad to grow older
to move away from those awful times
I want to see all my friends tonight
Yes you found love but you weren´t
at peace with your life
home late, full of Hate
despise the ties that bind
oh I´m so glad to grow older
to move away from those younger years
now I´m in love for the first time
and I don´t feel bad
Let me see all my old friends
let me put my arm around them
because I really do love them
now, does that sound mad?
Captain of games, solid framed
I stood on the touchline
hailstones, driven home
in his car - no breaks? I don´t mind
I´m just so glad to grow older
to move away from those darker years
I´m in love for the first time
and I don´t feel bad
so wish me luck my friends
goodbye
