OK, then , I'm wrong on all accounts. I have no interest or knowledge of The Smiths/Morrissey/Marr other than the fact that Morrissey is an Olympic standard bell end. My understanding of the situation is obviously wrong and I will withdraw to the sanctuary of my attic where I will commit ritual...
Indeed, I heard Johnny Marr used to dread getting a pile of Morrisey's lyrics as he was never sure how depressed and overcomplicated they would be and if it was humanly possible to put a tune around them.
