the smiths - how soon is now
I am the son
And the heir
Of a shyness that is criminally vulgar
I am the son and heir
Of nothing in particular

You shut your mouth
How can you say
I go about things the wrong way?
I am Human and I need to be loved
Just like everybody else does

I am the son
And the heir
Of a shyness that is criminally vulgar
I am the son and heir
Oh, of nothing in particular

You shut your mouth
How can you say
I go about things the wrong way?
I am human and I need to be loved
Just like everybody else does

There’s a club, if you’d like to go
You could meet somebody who really loves you
So you go, and you stand on your own
And you leave on your own
And you go home, and you cry
And you want to die

When you say it’s gonna happen ”now”
Well, when exactly do you mean?
See I’ve already waited too long
And all my hope is gone

You shut your mouth
How can you say
I go about things the wrong way ?
I am human and I need to be loved
Just like everybody else does

Kuriosa: från en intervju med Morrisey, sångaren i The Smiths, i tidningen Word Magazine:

Word: Did you hear t.A.T.u.’s version of ”How Soon Is Now?”
Morissey: Yes, it was magnificent. Absolutely. Again, I don’t know much about them. 
Word: They are teenage Russian lesbians.
Morissey: Well, aren’t we all?

Och ja, Liv var naturligtvis min farmoster och inte mormoster. Om det nu var någon som orkade tragla sig igenom släktskapet i gårdagens inlägg och kom fram till att det inte gick ihop.
