As Morrissey's greatest hits-album has been leaked will soon hit the record shops, one of the two new extra tracks, "All You Need Is Me", has particularly striking lyrics. As usual, the man is at his prime when he snarls and bites.

This should serve as a template for anybody attempting to write song-lyrics these days.

You hiss and groan and you constantly moan but you don't ever go away And that's because all you need is me

You roll your eyes up to the skies mock horrified but you're still here all you need is me

There's so much destruction all over the world and all you can do is complain about me

You bang your head against the wall and say you're sick of it all yet, you remain 'cause all you need is me

And then you offer your one and only joke and you ask me "What will I be, when I grow up to be a man?"

Me? NOTHING

There's a soft voice singing in your head Who can this be? I do believe it's me

There's a naked man standing laughing in your dreams You know who it is But you don't like what it means

There's so much destruction all over the world and all you can do is complain about me

I was a small, fat child in a welfare house there was only one thing I ever dreamed about fate has just handed it to me

WHOPEE

You don't like me but you love me either way you're wrong You're gonna miss me when I'm gone you're gonna miss me when I'm gone

You don't like me but you love me either way you're wrong You're gonna miss me when I'm gone you're gonna miss me when I'm gone

Ended in bouts of lalala and rrao.
