Mountjoy Lyrics

by Morrissey

[Verse 1]
The joy brings many things
It cannot bring you joy
Sons of mothers huddled here
Men and boys
[ Lyrics from: http://www.cloverlyrics.com/e120894-morrissey~mountjoy_lyrics.html ]
[Verse 2]
1850 swung the doors
And human sewage swept inside
Where victims speak in whines
And where the hardened cried

[Verse 3]
I was sent here by a three-foot half-wit in a wig
I took his insults on the chin
And never did I flinch

[Verse 4]
A swagger hides the fear in here
By this rule we breathe
And there is no one on this earth
That I'd feel sad to leave

[Chorus 1]
You see, we all lose
We all lose

[Verse 5]
What those in power do to you
Reminds us at a glance
How humans hate each others guts
And show it given the chance

[Verse 6]
We never say aloud the things
That we say in our prayers
'Cause no one cares

[Verse 7]
Many executed here
By the awful lawfully good
But the only thing that makes me cry
Is when I see the sky

[Verse 8]
Brenden Behan's laughter rings
For what he had or hadn't done
For he knew then, as I know know
That for each and every one of us..

[Chorus 2]
We all lose
Rich or poor
We all lose
Rich or poor
We all lose
