Many of those Marr fans hate Moz. They can point out that Marr wrote the music to all the Smith's songs. Right? What gets me is if Morrisey wasn't writing the music- then how the hell did he proceed to put out album after album of (mostly) great Smith sounding (kinda) music after they broke up? Did he write ANY of the Smiths songs. Not even the odd, different one -How Soon is Now? This invariably brings up Ozzy. The Oz.(yes, one of his tags). So The Moz didn't write any Smiths songs but his successful solo career was based upon Smiths like music he wrote himself? The Oz didn't write very many songs when he was in Black Sabbath. Not at all. Very few and mostly pieces. But post Sabbath his hugely successful solo career was similarly charmed and very lucrative. Ozzy did have Randy Rhoads.
Well. Obviously, they are both talented. Moz’s success as a solo artist is probably due to working with other talented instrumentalists and his knack for writing compelling lyrics coupled with his iconic voice.
You chase in the rat-race And you always feel so hollow You marry because it's expected of you And it only makes you feel more lonely But still you look down on the Teenage dad on his estate He's happy - so leave him alone With his baby and his modest home He's happy - so leave him alone With his Jensen Interceptor It's just a runaround You defer to the views of the television news Let someone do your thinking for you And you still buy a daily newspaper And you find everything there but the news And still you look down on the Teenage dad on his estate He's happy - so leave him alone With his baby and his modest home He's happy - so leave him alone With his Jensen Interceptor It's just a runaround You become your parents' parent And you love them But you can't help feeling used And you hate the teenage dad on his estate Because he's poor but he's happier than you They're all laughing at you You're a dipper, a slider, cart-horse provider Nobody cares about you Just as long as you're out there bringing it in Despising the grin on the face of the boy With the methadone ahh With his methadone He's happy - so leave him alone With his methadone He's happy - so leave him alone
He's not nobody. I agree that Morrissey is King but you can't compare the two, they are completely different artists. Morrissey is a singer and lyricist, Johnny is a guitarist and songwriter.
I keep coming back to this song. Such a wonderful piece of music in every way.
I think he is remained more who he was and who he is than the great majority of people.
This was in the set list the last two nights. So excellent to hear it live.
I don't know if I have the tune in my head first or the lyrics in mind when I crave a Moz song. That's what's so great about about him and his band.
People who say marr was the talent rhino the smiths don't listen to enough of Morrissey

Morrissey is one of us.
Morrissey is a Saint. I'm positive about this.
thank you so much I cried when I found this.
Genius song! What a fantastic lyric! No one else would be able in come up with that!
Amo a Morrissey!!!. Es realmente un genio. Lo mejor que puedo disfrutar en esta vida.
What a wonderful surprise, well done Moz
You chase in the rat-race
And you always feel so hollow
You marry because it's expected of you
And it only makes you feel more lonely
But still you look down on the
Teenage dad on his estate
He's happy - so leave him alone
With his baby and his modest home
He's happy - so leave him alone
With his Jensen Interceptor
It's just a runaround
You defer to the views of the television news
Let someone do your thinking for you
And you still buy a daily newspaper
And you find everything there but the news
And still you look down on the
Teenage dad on his estate
He's happy - so leave him alone
With his baby and his modest home
He's happy - so leave him alone
With his Jensen Interceptor
It's just a runaround
You become your parents' parent
And you love them
But you can't help feeling used
And you hate the teenage dad on his estate
Because he's poor but he's happier than you
They're all laughing at you
You're a dipper, a slider, cart-horse provider
Nobody cares about you
Just as long as you're out there bringing it in
Despising the grin on the face of the boy
With the methadone ahh
With his methadone
He's happy - so leave him alone
With his methadone
He's happy - so leave him alone
Fantastic lyric. I thought it was "raking it in'.
my friend is a teenage dad and he works hard to look after him
Genius. Simple as that.
it's just to run around....ha ha.
indeed.
great hook.
Classic moz style neo-glam heavy ballad
wonberful to hear his voice -
Nah ,,,, Morrissey is a unique creature just visiting Earth
🎶 It's just a run-around ❤️
Yeh baby!
Methadone
is it me or is morrissey Elvis in a parralell universe?

VIVA MOZ
@dag673 you're awesome. don't forget this
Estate means property owned by wealthy ppl in the States but in the UK it means something else
It means "housing estate". Basically public housing for low-income families on the dole (which incidentally means welfare...)
@@lindaokey6639 thank you, learn something new every day!
@@lindaokey6639 Thank you much. Maybe my fave song on the album- and now the words make a lot more sense.
Estate= Public housing in the UK.
Alright.
Moz
