"Art-Hounds" lyrics - MORRISSEY

Art-hounds like something
But Art-hounds love nothing
And those that do are judged by those
Who tried and found they couldn't do

Art-hounds seek the Greek ideal
Gaze on what they'll never feel
The pitiless revenge of those without friends
Pitiless, pitiless revenge

Art-hounds nose around
They've seen it somewhere written down
And everything they've seen on the moving screen
Helps them pinpoint the page

In European museums
Will I see you?
Will I see you?
Will I see you?
Will I see you?
In European museums
Will I see you?

My life is a book
My life is a book
My life is a book
My life is a book

Art-hounds in a restaurant
They bring along their loving Aunt
But when they can't find a table for their fat Aunt Mabel
They stamp their feet and cry

Art-hounds in a restaurant
They bring along their loving Aunt
But when they can't find a table for their fat Aunt Mabel
They stamp their feet and cry

In European hushed museums
Will I see you?
Will I see you?
Will I see you?
Will I see you?
In European hushed museums
Will I see you?

My life is a book
My life is a book
My life is a book
My life is a book

Art-hounds - very funny, very witty, but very lonely
And below the belt is shriveled and small
It knows a thousand woes

Art-hounds - very funny, very witty, but very lonely
And below the belt is shriveled and small
It knows a thousand woes

In European hushed museums
Will I see you?
Will I see you?
Will I see you?
Will I see you?
In European hushed museums
Will I see you?

When you cannot stand the real world
When you cannot stand the real world
Take my hand when you cannot stand the real world

When you cannot stand the real world
When you cannot stand the real world
Take my hand when you cannot stand the real world

I take fifteen pills to send me to sleep
And fifteen pills to shake me awake
Oh, what does it mean?
What does it mean?
What does it mean?
What does it mean?
What does it mean?
Oh, what does it mean?

Nobody knows...
