She went
shoeless in Salford for Morrissey.
She went
shoeless in Salford—
shoeless in Salford for Morrissey:
that’s what she always said;
you never really knew what she meant.
She had the look of Edith Sitwell about her—
the frail bones and intricacies of a goldfinch.
She was a hunchback.
She was a hunchback.
She was a hunchback.
She was a hunchback.
She was the exception to the rule:
shunned;
spurned;
a praeternatural phenomenon in a
shabby comprehensive school.
“My nan’s a hedge-mumper,” she often used to say.
“My nan’s a hedge-mumper.”
“My nan’s a hedge-mumper.”
“My nan’s a hedge-mumper.”
She went
shoeless in Salford for Morrissey.
She went
shoeless in Salford,
ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
That’s what she always said;
you never really knew what she meant.
Urchinular, she hauled herself onto the stage,
grubby fingernails clawing at the
shirttails of the bequiffed messiah;
you see,
he took her higher.
He took her higher.
He took her higher.
He took her higher.
She was a hunchback.
She was a hunchback.
He took her higher.
He takes her higher.
