The Smiths - The World Won't Listen

The Boy with the Thorn in His Side - 2011 Remaster

The boy with the thorn in his side
Behind the hatred there lies
A murderous desire for love

How can they look into my eyes
And still they don't believe me?
How can they hear me say those words
And still they don't believe me?

And if they don't believe me now
Will they ever believe me?
And if they don't believe me now
Will they, will they ever believe me?

Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh

The boy with the thorn in his side
Behind the hatred there lies
A plundering desire for love
How can they see the love in our eyes
And still they don't believe us?

And after all this time
They don't want to believe us
And if they don't believe us now
Will they ever believe us?

And when you want to live
How do you start?
Where'd you go?
Who do you need to know?

Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
