I'm OK By Myself - Morrissey

Could this be an arm around my waist?

Well, surely the hand contains a knife?

It’s been so all of my life

Why change now?

«It hasn’t!»

Now this might surprise you, but

I find I’m ok by myself

And I don’t need you

Or your morality to save me

No, no, no, no, no

Then came an arm around my shoulder

Well surely the hand holds a revolver?

It’s been so all of my life

Why change now?

«It hasn’t!»

Now this might disturb you, but

I find I’m ok by myself

And I don’t need you

Or your benevolence to make sense

Noooooooo!

Noooooooo!

Noooooooo!

Noooooooo!

After all these years

I find I’m ok by myself

And I don’t need you

Or your homespun philosophy

No, no, no, no

This might make you throw up in your bed:

I’m OK by myself

And I don’t need you

And I never have, I never have

Noooooooo!

Noooooooo!

Noooooooo!

Noooooooo!
