Still Ill (2008 Remaster)

Still Ill - The Smiths

I decree today that life

Is simply taking and not giving

England is mine it owes me a living

But ask me why and I'll spit in your eye

Oh ask me why and I'll spit in your eye

But we cannot cling

To the old dreams anymore

No we cannot cling to those dreams

Does the body rule the mind

Or does the mind rule the body

I don′t know

Under the iron bridge we kissed

And although I ended up with sore lips

It just wasn't like the old days anymore

No it wasn't like those days

Am I still ill

Oh

Am I still ill Oh

Does the body rule the mind

Or does the mind rule the body

I don′t know

Ask me why and I'll die

Oh ask me why and I'll die

And if you must go to work tomorrow

Well if I were you I wouldn't bother

For there are brighter sides to life

And I should know because I've seen them

But not very often

Under the iron bridge we kissed

And although I ended up with sore lips

It just wasn't like the old days anymore

No it wasn't like those days

Am I still ill

Oh

Oh am I still ill

Oh
