作词 : Marr, Morrissey
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 ...
