Lyrics Question

[bosie]

What does Morrissey sing in "The Queen is Dead" right before the part that goes "pass the pub that wrecks your body..."? I can't understand what he's saying and it's not printed on the lyric sheet. Anyone know?

the line is:

"All their lies about make-up and long hair, are still there"

i remember searching every moz lyric web site and no one had it but i finally found it on "It May All End Tomorrow" (http://www.oz.net/~moz/main.htm)

I'd like to respond to that in an unspecific manner. Unless Morrissey's words (in that garbled & mysterious sequence) are a backwards loop i.e. in English, they could more meaningfully be Erse or Gaelic to make his anti-monarchist statement that much more intense and defensible. Morrissey has had a home in Ireland (Eire) and, as in "This Is Not My Country", is most certainly an Irish nationalist, perhaps without being a Fenian.
