Is it Really So Strange? (John Peel session, 12/2/86)
Is it Really So Strange  - The Smiths

I left the North

I traveled South

I found a tiny house
I can't help the way I feel

Oh yes  you can kick me

And you can punch me

And you can break my face
But you won't
Change the way I feel

'Cause I love you  oh

And is it really so strange

Oh  is it really so strange

Oh  is it really so
Really so strange

I say  "No"  you say  "Yes"
And you will change your mind

I left the South

I traveled North

I got confused  I killed a horse
I can't help the way I feel

Oh yes  you can punch me

And you can butt me

And you can break my spine

But you won't
Change the way I feel

'Cause I love you  oh

And is it really so strange

Oh  is it really so strange

Oh  is it really so
Really so strange

I say  "No"  you say  "Yes"
But you will change your mind

I left the North again

I traveled South again

And I got confused
I killed a nun
I can't help the way I feel

I can't help the way I feel

I can't help the way I feel

I lost my bag
In Newport Pagnell

Why is the last mile

The hardest mile

My throat was dry

With the sun in my eyes

And I realized  I realized

I could never  I could never

Never never  go back home again
