Lyrics Is It Really so Strange? - Live in Boston - The Smiths

Is it really so strange?

I left the North
I travelled South
I found a tiny house
And I can't help the way I feel
Oh yes, you can punch me
And you can kick me

And you can break my face
But you won't change the way I feel
'Cause I love you

And is it really so strange?
Oh, is it really so strange?
Oh, is it really so, really so strange?
I say no, you say yes
But you will change your mind

I left the South
I travelled North
I got confused, I killed a horse
I can't help the that way I feel
Oh yes, you can punch me
And you can butt me

And you can break my spine
But you won't change the way I feel
'Cause I love you

And is it really so strange?
Oh, is it really so strange?
Oh, is it really so, really so strange?
I say no, you say yes
But you will change your mind

I left the North again
I traveled South again
And I got confused, I killed a nun
I can't help the way I feel
I can't help the way I feel
I can't help the way I feel

I left my bag in Newport Pagnell
Why is the last mile the hardest mile?
My throat was dry with the sun in my eyes
And I realized, I realized
That I could never
That I could never, never, never go back home again

Don't pretend, you didn't like it
Don't pretend
