Jacky's Only Happy When She's Up on the Stage - Morrissey

Jacky’s only happy when she’s up on the stage

I make this claim, now let me explain

Since she lost you

Jacky’s only happy when she’s up on the stage

Free in the truth of make-believe

Since she lost you

She is determined to prove

How she can fill up the page

Of every lost and lonely day

Jacky’s only happy when she’s up on the stage

She’ll make you believe what you’ll never believe

Since she lost you

Jacky’s only Jacky when she’s up on the stage

Living bodies that actually move

Since she lost you

She is determined to prove

How she can fill up the page

Of every lost and lonely day

«Cue lights, I am singing to my lover at night

Scene Two: Everyone who comes must go

Scene Four: Blacker than ever before

Scene Six: This country is making me sick»

Jacky cracks when she isn’t on stage

See the effects of sexual neglect

No script, no crew, no auto-cue

No audience telling her what to do

Exit, exit

Everybody’s heading for the exit, exit

Everybody’s running to the exit, exit

Everybody’s running to the exit, exit

Everybody’s heading for the exit, exit

Everybody’s running to the exit, exit

Everybody’s running to the exit, exit

Everybody’s running to the exit, exit

Everybody’s running to the exit, exit

Everybody’s heading for the exit, exit

Everybody’s heading for the exit, exit

Everybody’s heading for the exit, exit, exit, exit

Exit, exit, exit, exit, exit, exit, exit, exit, exit
