Homer’s Morrissey

 

I’m now a caricature gammon wankspangle*
and heaven knows I’m miserable now

I was looking for a sword and then I found a sword
and heaven knows I’m miserable now

In my life why do I spend valuable time with sirens
who don’t care if I live or die?

Telemachus, my son, passed me by
and heaven knows I’m miserable now

Penelope, my wife, was weaving my shroud
so it’s nae bloody wonder I’m miserable now

In my life
Why do I smile
At cyclops who I’d much rather spear in the eye ?

What Circe said at the end of the day
Penelope would have blushed

“You’ve been in this orgy too long” she said
And I (naturally) fled

In my life
Why did I bother going to Troy?
Oh oh why?

I was happy in a haze with the Lotus Eaters
but heaven knows I’m miserable now

“You’ve been in the house too long” I said
To the suitors usurping my bed

I was looking for a sword and then I found a sword
and heaven knows I’m miserable now

In my life why do I say stupid controversial things all of the time?
