"Kit"
(Morrissey/Boz Boorer)

 

This outtake from the recording sessions for the "Maladjusted" album has yet to be given an official release. The lyrics below were transcribed as they are heard.

The pictures must come down
You are now 28
For Christ's sake
Kit, Kit, Kit oh please
Risk a smile for us
Go on

We're all here for you
We'll order drinks for you
We'll pick you up, drop you back home
Just to get some changes made
Oh Kit
Oh Kit

The cigarette butts must go 1
But you protest his lonely lips
Were pressed against them though
Kit, Kit, oh please
Risk a smile for us
Go on, oh Kit

We're all here for you
We'll order drinks for you
We'll pick you up, take you back home
Just to get some changes made
Oh Kit
Oh Kit

I beseech you
I implore you
I plead, pray, beg and call upon you
Make your mind up soon
Make your mind up soon

I'm reaching out to you 2
I'm reaching out to you
This way I'll live by you
Die by you, Kit
But the great and the good
And the best of us
Cannot be replaced
Don't ask me how I know this
Oh Kit

 

1 Morrissey actually sings "The cigarettes butts must go".

2 The inferior sounding transfer of the song that has leaked on the internet fades out at the bridge and lack this final verse.
