Spring-Heeled Jim - Lyrics by Morrissey


Lyrics
Spring-heeled Jim winks an eye He'll "do", he'll never be "done to" He takes on whoever flew through "
Well, it's the normal thing to do" ... ah ... Spring-heeled Jim lives to love Now kissing with his mouth full And his eyes on some other fool So many women His head should be spinning Ah, but no ! Ah, but no ! But no !
Ah, no !
Spring-heeled Jim slurs the words : "
There's no need to be so knowing
Take life at five times the Average speed, like I do" Until Jim feels the chill "
Oh, where did all the time go ?" Once always in for the kill Now it's too cold And he feels too old Too old
Mmm, old... La, la, la, la-la, la ...
