The new Morrissey album is a success. Spikier and more pop orientated than the Visconti's Tormentors and with some great one liners. 10 future classics are below.
- Diazepam...thats valium...temazepam...lithium, HRT...ECT...How long must I stay on this stuff? (Something Is Squeezing My Skull)
- Bailiffs with bad breath, I will slit their throats for you. (Mama Lay Softly On The Riverbed)
- The one I loveroosts in the mind, Can snap this spellor increase hell. (Black Cloud)
- Only stone and steel accept my love. (I'm Throwing My Arms Around Paris)
- I was a small, fat child in a welfare house. There was only one thing I ever dreamed about, And Fate has just, Handed it to me - whoopee. (All You Need Is Me)
- I was driving my car, I crashed and broke my spine, So yes, there are things worse in life than never being some-one's sweetie. (That's How People Grow Up)
- It's not your birthday anymore. There's no need to be kind to you. (It's Not Your Birthday Anymore)
- Sorry will not bring my teen years back to me(Sorry Doesn't Help)
- You made me feel less alone, You made me feel not quite so deformed, uninformed, and hunchbacked. (You Were Good In Your Time)
- Could this be an arm around my waist? Well, surely the hand contains a knife? (I'm OK By Myself)

Only stone and steel accept my love.
That might damn well be one of the best Morrissey lyrics ever. Nice choices. I'm still developing a feel for the album, it's been on repeat around the house, but I'm usually so busy I'm not focusing. Time for a walk with my ipod, methinks.
