Stretch out and Wait (2008 Remaster)

by The Smiths

Lyrics
On the high-rise estate
What's at the back of your mind
Oh a three-day debate
On a high-rise estate
What's at the back of your mind
Two icy-cold hands
Conducting the way
It's the Eskimo blood in my veins
Amid concrete and clay
And general decay
Nature must still find a way
So ignore all the codes of the day
Let your juvenile influences sway
This way and that way
This way and that way
God how *** implores you
To let yourself lose yourself
Stretch out and wait
Stretch out and wait
Let your puny body
Lie down lie down
As we lie you say
As we lie you say
Stretch out and
Stretch out and wait
Stretch out and wait
Let your puny body
Lie down lie down
As we lie you say:
Will the world end
In the night time
(I really don't know)
Or will the world end
In the day time
(I really don't know)
And is there any point
Ever having children
Oh I don't know
What I do know is
We're Here and it's Now
So stretch out and wait
Stretch out and wait
There is no debate
No debate no debate
How can you
Conciously contemplate
When there's no debate
No debate
Stretch out and wait
Stretch out and wait
Stretch out and wait
Wait
Wait
Wait
Wait
