Me Vs Morrissey In The Pretentiousness Contest (The Ladder Match) Lyrics
Tell me a doll once came dead from above,
How'd you lose your way,
It stole a year from your best ones a waste to ground you.
When i get to your house,
Off my back i'll lose the weight,
When i get to your house,
Swear to god i won't trust the model or the make
I will trust you.
Alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright
Tie me up to the radiator
Trust the sweat, not the face it's on
Tie me up to the radiator
Don't put those lights on me
Don't put those lights on me
The same doll came to walk over us,
How'd you lose your way,
It broke mold got stretched like the weak ones,
Cracked and dried up slow.
When i get to your house,
Off my back i'll lose the weight,
When i get to your new fake god,
I wont trust the model or the make
I will trust you
Alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright
Tie me up to the radiator
Trust the sweat, not the face it's on
Tie me up to the radiator
Don't put those lights on me
Don't put those lights on me
Tie me up to the radiator
Tie me up to the radiator
Tie me up to the radiator
Tie me up, tie me up
Our vanity's a sickness,
There's a world outside prescribed,
And I won't live in it.
How'd you lose your way,
It stole a year from your best ones a waste to ground you.
Off my back i'll lose the weight,
When i get to your house,
Swear to god i won't trust the model or the make
I will trust you.
Alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright
Trust the sweat, not the face it's on
Tie me up to the radiator
Don't put those lights on me
Don't put those lights on me
How'd you lose your way,
It broke mold got stretched like the weak ones,
Cracked and dried up slow.
Off my back i'll lose the weight,
When i get to your new fake god,
I wont trust the model or the make
I will trust you
Alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright
Trust the sweat, not the face it's on
Tie me up to the radiator
Don't put those lights on me
Don't put those lights on me
Tie me up to the radiator
Tie me up to the radiator
Tie me up, tie me up
There's a world outside prescribed,
And I won't live in it.

i dont think the lyrics are "tie me up to the radiator" its "tie my up to the radio"
Nan it's radiator.
should say, nah, it's radiator
a seriously rockin tune
This song is probably the weakest lyrically on the album. And probably one of the strongest musically.
Shame, that.
Oh, and it's definately radiator. I copied it directly from the album notes.
AWS is one of the best live acts out there
they own on all aspects of punk
What.. Bad lyrically? You're kidding me right? This song is weakest on the album lyrically.. but even then it's pretty much better than 90% of the other shit out there.
But seeing as there's no actual stabs at the meaning of the song in all 7 comments on a site called SongMeaning.net, I'LL actually stay on topic. Official word from Trevor Reilly:
"Me vs. Morrissey is about two things 1) a friend who was taken from us by a girl and changed, or that's how I perceived the situation in the song anyway and 2) starting a new relationship with a wonderful woman. Two sides to a story basically. Hope that doesn't sound too lame."
ho, is that the true meaning? almost disapointing... I thought it was about religion, the doll being Jesus, and "won't trust the model or the make, I will trust you" meaning I won't believe in god or in religious hierarchy, I will believe in human being...

I have a love hate relationship with this band .. one of the best hard-rock albums 'musically' which I have heard in a while .. but their lyrics are just terrible.
