Excellent b-side to "The Last Of The Famous International Playboys". And yes, Morrissey really did spell it "Michaels," not "Michael's".
"Michaels Bones"
Words by Morrissey, Music by Stephen Street
Michael's bones
Lay where he fell
Face down
On a sports ground
He was just somebody's
Luckless son
But now look what he's done
Oh, look what he's done
Your gentle hands are frozen
And your unkissed lips are blue
Your thinning clothes are hopeless
And no one was mad about you
Michael's bones
Were very young
But they were never to know
Impetuous fun
Mr. Policeman I don't know
Where you get such notions from!
His gentle hands are frozen
And his unkissed lips are blue
But his eyes still cry
And now you've turned the last bend
And see are we all judged the same at the end
Tell me, tell me
OH YOU LUCKY THING
You are Too Brave
And I'm ashamed of myself
AS USUAL
