Oh, oh
I'd just finished writing "Jubilee Street"
I laid down on my bed and fell into a deep sleep
And when I awoke, I believed I'd taken a bride called Mary Stanford
And I flew into a frenzy, searching high and low
Because in my dream the girl was very young

I said, "Hey little girl, where do you hide?
You draw lightning from the sky"

All of this and her dark hair
All of this and her dark hair, oh Lord

See that girl
Come on down
Come on down
Come on down

See that girl
Come on down
Come on down
Come on down

Last night your shadow scampered up the wall, it flied
It leaped like a black spider between your legs, and cried
My children
My children
They are lost to us

All of this and her dark hair, oh Lord
All of this and her dark hair, oh Lord

See that girl
Come on down
Come on down
Come on down

See that girl
Come on down
Come on down
Come on down

See that girl
Come on down
Come on down
Come on down

See that girl
Come on down
Come on down
Come on down

    Which of these lyrics is NOT by The Smiths, but by Morrissey?
    A Send at least one thoughtful letter, my heart goes out to you
    B In the days when you were hopelessly poor, I just liked you more
    C Yes, we may be hidden by rags, but we've something they'll never have
    D Why pamper life's complexity, when the leather runs smooth on the passenger seat?
