She takes the blame takes the pain but the world smiles
'Cause outside is just a taxi ride to drive away
So she packs her bag calls a cab and the world smiles
And inside well she feels all right and turns to say:

"Yes it's the end the final showdown
Yes it's the end of our small love
You'll have to find another no one to take the shit like I have
Well I guess this is the end I guess this is the end."

She feels the sun, phones her mum and the world smiles
'Cause outside in the morning light it's another day
So she packs her bag, smokes a fag and the world smiles
'Cause inside well she feels all right, and turns to say:

"Yes it's the end, the final showdown
Yes it's the end of our small love
You'll have to find another no one who'll take the shit like I have
Well I guess this is the end, I guess this is the end...
Oh well..."

    originally part of Suede's "Coming Up" sessions, i honestly do not know why this song was left off the album, only to appear as a B-Side for "Trash". i think this is some of their best work. it's about a breakup, or specifically, the courage to breakup. the central character has finally summoned all her courage to leave this (abusive?) jackass and she's riding it all the way out. worth checking out if you can get your hands on it. also available on "Sci-Fi Lullabies"

    I read an interview with Brett Anderson & he said he liked the idea of doing as The Smiths had and releaqsing great songs as B-sides. Hell, My Insatiable One was a B-side! It's a lofty concept, but it doesn't seem to make much practical sense...

    I think the whole idea of having great songs as b-sides was just to be a bit different. Rather than just sticking the sort of 'second best' types of songs as b-sides, they've got these incredible songs that sometimes outshine the actual a-side. I see it as sort of giving something to the fans, rather than just sticking remixes and the like on the end of a single. Maybe giving the fans another reason to buy the singles, not just out of loyalty for the band but because there are killer songs on it.

    yeah i agree enola. suede were the only band whose singles i bought and yes, it's cos many of the B-sides were just as good or better than the A side track. I think my favorite example of this is We are The Pigs/Killing of a Flashboy/Whipsnade

This track is about is about questioning why the sky would choose to be blue if it had the choice to be anything else, “blue also meaning sad,” states frontman Aaron Pauley. “It's about comforting a loved one in a time of loss by telling them you feel blue, too.”

Just listening for the 784,654th time....and it's just perfect in every way. Just incredible. The only reason it was remade was to scoop up a boatload of money from a more modern and accepting audience. But it is a completely different song than the other one that sounds slapped together in a few takes without a thought for the meaning. This song captivates me still, after 50+ years. Takes me to the deep South and the poverty of some who lived thru truly hard times. And the powerful spirit of a poor young girl being abandoned to her future with only a red dress and her wits to keep her alive. She not only stayed alive, she turned her hard beginnings around, became self sufficient, successful and someone with respect for herself. She didn't let the naysayers and judgers stop her. She's the one sitting in the drivers seat at the end. So, not a song about a poor girl, but a song of hope and how you can rise up no matter how far down you started. There is a huge difference between a singer who simply belts out a song that is on a page in front of them, and someone who can convey an entire experience with their voice. Telling not just a story with words, but taking you inside it and making you feel like you are there, with their interpretation.
