no kez, you are not stupid, everyone else is for assuming that every single smiths song is about being gay I think that this song is about defending poor people who commit little petty crimes because they have to, when there are peopl doing worse things that we dont class as "criminals"

@sambo28 Thank you ever so much for realising that not every song is about being gay. Very few people, from whom I see (I could be wrong) , actually see this. Many assume that each song is about being gay and as they are written, manly by Morrissey, they therefore assume he is gay. If they would just read Autobiography before thinking they are true fans that know everything about Morrissey and The smiths, well, that would be nice...

I really highly doubt everyone assumes every single Smiths song is about being gay. Really? Are you that ignorant? Let people add their own meaning to songs ffs.
