I LIKE YOU
(Morrissey/Boorer)

Something in you caused me to
take a new tact with you
you were going through
something I had just about scraped through
why do you think I let you get away
with the things you say to me?
could it be I like you?
It’s so shameful of me 
I like you

No one I ever knew
or have spoken to resembles you
this is good or bad
all depending on my general mood
why do you think I let you get away
with all the things you say to me?
could it be I like you?
it’s so shameful of me 
I like you

Magistrates 
who spend their lives
hiding their mistakes
they look at you and I 
and envy makes them cry
envy makes them cry

Forces of containment
they shove their fat faces into mine
you and I just smile
because we’re thinking the same lines
why do you think I let you get away
with all the things you say to me?
Could it be I like you?
it’s so shameful of me 
I like you

you’re not right in the head
and nor am I 
and this is why
you’re not right in the head
and nor am I 
and this is why
this is why I like you, I like you, I like you
this is why I like you, I like you, I like you

because you’re not right in the head
and nor am I 
and this is why
you’re not right in the head
and nor am I 
and this is why
this is why I like you, I like you, I like you
this is why I like you, I like you, I like you
this is why I like you, I like you
