| The Smiths – Rusholme Ruffians Lyrics | 19 years ago |

I think maybe Victoria Wood was inspired by this song, not the other way around. I'm not sure how far her career goes but this song was written around 1984/5. It was mentioned somewhere on the morrissey-solo webiste that the "scratch my name on your arm.." part is supposed to be literally taken as scratching, i.e. tattooing, as schoolkids back in the day would (apparently) try and woo the one they loved my permanently inking their name into their arm. ..albeit in a rather clumsy, messy and no doubt, dangerous manner. I'm not quite sure how true this is, but I find it interesting. |

To me.. this song says nothing. Now don't get me wrong, it's an excellent song by an excellent band, I'm just terrible at interpreting lyrics. So when I look for interpretations I pretty much go with the most entertaining and interesting (provided it has SOME clarity of course), so here I'm going with Borknagar and his born-again-vampire thing. Although I must say gothickun's comment interests me.. and I reckon he/she should write more of his/her interpretation for me to read up on :P |

I'll be honest.. I'm still a bit confused by this song. I see all the links to necrophilia.. and then links to lycanthropes/werewolves.. ..but I don't see how they link and I'm not sure whether or not the girl mentioned is dead or alive. I'm thinking maybe there are two girls.. maybe. Any help? |
