The Smiths
What She Said
[Verse 1]
What she said
"How come someone hasn't noticed that I'm dead
And decided to bury me? God knows, I'm ready!"
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
What she said was sad
But then, all the rejection she's had
To pretend to be happy could only be idiocy
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
But what she said
Was not for the job or lover that she never had
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
No, no, no

[Verse 2]
What she read
All heady books she'd sit and prophesise
It took a tattooed boy from Birkenhead
To really really open her eyes
What she read
All heady books she'd sit and prophesise
It took a tattooed boy from Birkenhead
To really really open her eyes
What she said
"I smoke 'cause I'm hoping for an early death
And I need to cling to something"
What she said
"I smoke 'cause I'm hoping for an early death
And I need to cling to something"
No, no, no
