I Like You Lyrics

Something in you caused me to take a new tact with you
I was going through something
You had just about scraped through

Why'd you think I let you get away
With the things you say to me?

Could it be I like you
It's so shameful of me
I like you

No one I ever knew
Or have spoken to
Resembles you
This is good and bad all depending on my general mood

Why'd you think I let you get away
With all the things you say to me?

Could it be I like you
It's so shameful of me
I like you

Magistrates who spend their lives hiding their mistakes
They look at you and I and envy makes them cry
Envy makes them cry

Forces of containment
They shove their fat faces into mine
You and I just smile
Because we're thinking the same lines

Why'd you think I let you get away
With all the things you say to me?

Could it be I like you
It's so shameful of me
I like you

You're not right in the head and nor am I
And this is why
You're not right in the head and nor am I
And this is why
This is why I like you
I like you, I like you
This is why I like you
I like you, I like you

You're not right in the head and nor am I
and this is why
You're not right in the head and nor am I
and this is why
This is why I like you
I like you, I like you

Cover art for I Like You lyrics by Morrissey

I'm confused: this is a song from his new album but these lyrics were posted in 2002. How's that possible?

Cover art for I Like You lyrics by Morrissey

because the songs were written a long time before the new album came out. He was still performing live without having a record deal...

Yes, it took him 7 years to find a new label to release material off.

i think the song's basically about two folks, more than likely close friends who sort of joke with and about each other, and who know each other so well that they're always "thinking the same line." Moz is finally ready to admit his feelings. It's really a nice song.

one of the most perfect love songs.

I think it's a perfect friendship song too -- I picture him singing this to Linder or Nancy Sinatra or another one of his favorite women friends

fantastic 'like' song. I do not think it is a love song. But it is fantastic. I love it at high volumes. His voice control is sublime. I like the bit about "you're not right in the head, this is why I like you"/"and nor am I"

I agree with shroom. It is the perfect like song. "No one I ever knew or have spoken to resembles you This is good and bad all depending on my general view" I thought it was mood? Anyways, that line is one of my favorite by Morrissey. I think it's something everyone can relate to when liking someone.

Put this on a compilation for this hot blonde i like.

They look at you and I and envy makes them cry Envy makes them cry

Oh Moz, you know the story of my life and I've never even told you.
