The Smiths - YOU'VE GOT EVERYTHING NOW lyrics

I was right and you were long

back at the old grey school

I would win and you would lose

But you've got everything now

and what a terrible mess I've made of my life

No, I've never had a job

because I've never wanted one

I've seen you smile

but I've never really heard you laugh

So who is rich and who is poor?

I cannot say...

You are your mother's only son

and you're a desperate one

But I don't want a lover

I just want to be seen in the back of your car

A friendship sadly lost?

Well, this is true ...and yet, it's false

Did I ever tell you , by the way

I never did like your face

But you've got everything now

and what a terrible mess I've made of my life

No, I've never had a job

because I'm too shy

But I don't want a lover

I just want to be tied to the back of your car
