Morrissey - First Of The Gang To Die Lyrics
You have never been in love
until you've seen the stars
reflect in the reservoirs
And you have never been in love
behind the Home for the Blind
We are the Pretty Petty Thieves
and you're standing on our streets
where Hector was the
first of the gang with a gun in his hand
and the first to do time
the first of the gang to die, oh my
Hector was the first of the gang
and the first to do time
the first of the gang to die, oh my
You have never been in love
until you've seen the sunlight thrown
over smashed human bone
We are the Pretty Petty Thieves
and you're standing on our streets
where Hector was the first of the gang
with a gun in his hand
and the first to do time
the first of the gang to die
Such a silly boy
Hector was the first of the gang
with a gun in his hand
and a bullet in his gullet
and the first lost lad
to go under the sod
And he stole from the rich and the poor
and the not very rich and the very poor
and he stole all hearts away
He stole all hearts away
He stole all hearts away
Away...
He stole all hearts away
Away...

Como essa música é perfeita ❤️🎶
Dumbest song ever
Estuvo de puta madre cuando se presentó en Tijuana hace años,el wey es mi gurú
💙💙❤️💜💜
“Los Angeles”
I used to listen to this song all the time when I was really young, over 10 years ago, and listening to this song now really hits deep, partially because of the nostalgia, and partly because i connect to it now.. Amazing song
They've closed the home for the bind ! Oh my !
Still brilliant
Some people just love the danger
~whois Hector? ~
I love Americans but follow that 1.
Sounds like suede
Assolutamente meravigliosa....❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Oh Tragidus! You are too high...?
A brilliantly timed and layered song. This is well put together.
The name of this song it's funny lol
I’d say the bullet in the gullet was sore
Stewart Lee's let himself go.
Sounds like Suede....
This song should be used in the 'It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia' finale!
Is the betiful music of the world
Huge Smiths fan but never liked Morrissey solo til now and thats just for his courageuous political stance.
Puzzle find the songs called kaleidoscope coffee and with you by dandy and the Taylor brothers by the manager of the band called knauf.Michael.Good luck in your search.Many thanks.
Oh by the way meet the real Mr Smyth and poetry by the metaphysical man.Check out the mamonatianddelille webpage!
Well Jim and johnny r u off back home? or supporting the monati and delille band says michael from the Manon stand del like association.
Speaking to Aliens 👽 go Manchester what an Album 🍀🍀🍀🍀🌹🌹🌹🌹⚡️💥🔥🌍✊🙏
this song is timeless... Morrissey is STILL relevant in 2019. Thanks for sharing this video Andy!
828 people dont get it. This is particular mozz. You do it better than 828ts.
MORRISEY, REGRESA PRONTO A CHILE !
I love you Morrisey !
moss side was wild ,stephen struggled there tbh
amazing lyrics
Abbacchio...
👏👏👏👏👏
I bet hector wore black air force 1s
F for Héctor
R.I.P. Morrissey
“Where is Scott Lang ?”
Ia here
Is here
First I will like to thank my half sister. Because if it wasn’t for her. I wouldn’t of known Morrissey/The Smith’s.....
Mozza defied the onslaught and remained a white man . Respect .
Typically English. And that's what makes his songs so good.
Good song, shame Morrissey's such a shit-stain these days.
Hectors rectum
Sorry in german ggggeeeiil
Britpop before britop was
I dunno but I feel so proud that everyone I have introduced the song were impressed even shitty metal heads. Although I still wish they would appreciate The Smiths.
When you hear this music its makes me so proud to live in England
Shame in Boris
You have never been in love 😍
Until you’ve seen the stars ⭐️
Reflect in the reservoirs
And you have never been in love 🥰
Until you’ve seen the dawn rise
Behind the home 🏠 for the blind
We are the pretty petty thieves
And you’re standing on our street
Where Hector was the first of the gang
With a gun in his hand 🖐
And the first to do time
The first of the gang to die
Oh my
Where Hector was the first of the gang
With a gun in his hand 🤚
And the first to do time
The first of the gang to die
We are the pretty petty thieves
And you’re standing on our street
Where Hector was the first of the gang
With a gun in his hand 🖐
And the first to do time
The first of the gang to die
Such a silly 😛 boy 👦
Hector was the first of the gang
With a gun in his hand 🤚
And a bullet in his gullet
The first last lad under the sod
And he stole from the rich and the poor
And the not-very-rich and the very poor
And he stole all hearts 💕 away
He stole all hearts 💕 away
He stole all hearts 💕 away
He stole all hearts 💕 away
I have a pet giraffe.
Que buena rola
This was the first Morrisey song that I heard, or at least the first that I noticed. And I love the name Hector!
Booooom 👊👊❤❤
I just love morrissey ❤️
Morrissey I love you please die before you die
Love morrissey but wish he'd die before he ruins his legendary status this pales as does the rest of his work when held up next to the smiths
I'm so pissed that I can't find this on spotify anymore
Whaat? It never disappeared for me?
I bet morrisey had it removed cause he’s a total dick
Morbid Loathing gone off Deezer too
It is on Spotify now
oyy vey, pure coincidence
It’s a love song. One with grit.
He begins with ‘You have never been in love until..’ which means he believes in love. All three verses begin this way. The first one, everything is rosey in the garden. It’s like childhood when we had no cares and were happy inside Love (stars reflect in the reservoirs) Verse two, things are looking a bit off (home for the blind), but we still hold on to Love. Maybe in your teens you begin to feel angst for the first time...? In verse three, the gloves have come off and all hell looks to have broken loose (smashed human bone) Maybe as an adult you got a divorce or something?
But even through it all, we still believe in Love.
I’m from Manchester and the time I first heard this blaring out over the radio I was in the worst factory job I have ever had. It was a smashed human bone of a job. I was only there contracting for about six weeks. I left it to get married to the love of my life. Things got better from then on out. I continued to believe in Love, even when things looked hopeless, and Love came through for me.
Awesome pop song Morrissey! Thanks :)
Didn't realise hector had that side to him
The first man, Jesus. Since we have all done time....Ok no guns 2000 years ago, does not mmatter to me. It is about what was the manmade destiny of the son of man. I cant stand feminists but ok the son of all humanity
Mate absolutely classic
There's something very special about this song. This floats somewhere in my top 10 Moz songs. Fucking magnificent.
Amazingly great
What a song, brilliant.
And the not very poor
Bet Morrissey was a big fan of Hector's house
Morrissey was always one of them artists I never really liked, but this song totally changed that...
2019 👌🏻
I love this song.
This is when England was a place a country to envie now its a dump. Simon cowells sausage factory !
After all the politicians and liberals the reality of this song resonates through this nation. God love Morrissey
Shut up morrissey and get some meat down yer
Müzik kulağı olan türk varmı
Great stuff
Hector - you silly boy
Prophetic stuff one of the last of any worth Steve
ya quería llegar a mi house para escuchar esto
Morrissey is the most loveable asshole who ever lived.
With a name like Hector,sorry but you deserved all you got 😁
musica boa!!!!!!!!
Who is this guy Hector? I love this song but some of the lyrics baffle me..
Los Angeles...
Rap before it was rap...lol😂
Hector oh my!!!!
Idk why this song feels very Chicano to me
Phenomenal
What a riff
🇬🇧🎸🎶😘😍🎩
I meant moz lyrics in this song.
Yep...all musicians nick off each other you can hear in a lot of oasis songs almost blatant ripoffs of other tunes.
Great artist is Mozza !
Brilliant lyricist and a fine singer too !!!
Breakfast in bed thats wot yu r 2 mee
Noel gallagher said ' just when you think youve written the best song morresy knocks you on your arse'.
Except this is a Suede ripoff 🙄 "Just trash you and me"
Go write a better song. Be a better song wtiter and i will give you a gold bar
