My Chemical Romance - Jack The Ripper

Note: This is the best quality available and originally performed by Morrissey, covered here by MCR.
Oh, you look so tired
Your mouth is slack and wide
You're ill-housed and youre,
You're ill-advised
I bet your face is as mean
As your life has been
And oh, you look so tired
Well but tonight you presume too much
Too much, I said too much
and if it's the last
Thing I ever do
I'M GONNA GET YOU
Crash into my arms
I WANT YOU
You don't agree
But you don't refuse
I know you
And, oh I, I know a place
Where no one is likely to pass
Oh, you don't care if it's late
And you don't care if you're lost
And oh, you look so tired
Well but tonight you presume too much
Too much, I said too much
And if it's the last
Thing I ever do
I'M GONNA GET YOU
Crash into my arms
I WANT YOU
You don't agree
But you don't refuse
I know you
Come on!
Let's go!
And oh, you look so tired
Well but tonight you presume too much
Too much, I said too much
And if it's the last
Thing I ever do
I'M GONNA GET YOU
Crash into oh my fucking arms
I WANT YOU
You don't agree
But you don't refuse
I know you

Never have I heard any of the music of My Chemical Romance. But a few years ago, me in my 20s, a teenage girl wearing a My Chemical Romance shirt complimented my shirt (I had a The Smiths shirt. The band in which Morrissey, who originally wrote & sings this song was in). Tho I knew of "MCR"s existence, I'd never heard any of their music. Not bad.

[@shampooconditioner8314]

This Is such a good cover his voice Is so sad but that's Gerard Way for you

[@psychwardsandSCENE]

genuinely better than the morrissey version, because it's ♡ACTUALLY EMOTIVE♡, and a post-emocore song. >inb4 "mcr isn't emo" correct, but this sounds more like a post-emocore song than a post-hardcore song, and gerard (one of the two main composers of mcr) has the exact same influences as the 90s emocore guys. also, you don't have to play an emo genre of music to be emotive.
