Children in Pieces
This song was a b-side to Morrissey's 2008 single "All You Need Is Me". It says it all.
- Children in pieces
in Irish industrial schools
Nuns called mothers
and their christian brothers
kick the shit out of very frightened children
Judges and priests and police and cardinals
they look the other way
when the weekend comes they'll make you suffer
Children in pieces
in Irish industrial schools
Nuns called mothers
and their christian brothers
kick the shit out of very frightened children
You say you wanna go home
you say you wanna be left alone
and so you turn to me
but instead of sympathy I find
my sentimental heart hardens
my sentimental heart hardens
Get your hands off me
Kid, you must be bad luck
My sentimental heart hardens -
MORRISSEY

About Me
- goinghome
- I am on a curiodyssey. Inherent is the desire for freedom and at the same time, a sense of its elusive ineffability, of constraints on obtaining or maintaining the state. Meditations on life, art, philosophy, humour and manifest phenomena can open doors, unlock chains or just lift the illusion of feeling alone. This blog, a media magpie, rounds up shiny scrolls and schedules select viewing!
