(morrissey/marr)



If you're wondering why

All the love that you long for eludes you

And people are rude and cruel to you

I'll tell you why

I'll tell you why

I'll tell you why

I'll tell you why

But you wouldn't believe me



You just haven't earned it yet baby

You just haven't earned it son

You just haven't earned it yet baby

You must suffer and cry for a longer time

You just haven't earned it yet baby

And i'm telling you now



If you're wondering why

When all i wanted from life was to be famous

I have tried for so long it's all gone wrong

I'll tell you why

I'll tell you why

I'll tell you why



Today i am remembering the time

When they pulled me back and held me down

And looked me in the eyes and said



You just haven't earned it yet baby

You just haven't earned it son

You just haven't earned it yet baby

You must stay on your own for slightly longer

You just haven't earned it yet baby

And i'm telling you now



You just haven't earned it yet baby

You just haven't earned it son

You just haven't earned it yet baby

You must suffer and cry for a longer time

Suffer and cry

You must suffer and cry for slightly longer

Suffer and cry

You must suffer and cry for a longer time
