Released 40 years ago (19 May 1986) ... the aptly titled single 'Bigmouth Strikes Again' from the third studio album 'The Queen Is Dead' by The Smiths reflecting Morrissey Official's frustrations with the music industry at the time - and every other band to this day !
Several publications have ranked the song as one of the band's best songs. Billboard ranked the song as the band's second best, while NME named it the band's fourth best. Paste called it the band's tenth best, while Louder included it in their unranked top ten, writing, "This could be their most iconic song." Rolling Stone ranked it as the Smiths' 13th best, writing, "'Bigmouth' was the funniest song they'd ever done – that drum break alone is a comic masterpiece." Consequence of Sound listed the song as the band's 19th best.
Sweetness, sweetness I was only joking when I said
I'd like to smash every tooth in your head
Oh-oh, sweetness, sweetness, I was only joking when I said
By rights you should be bludgeoned in your bed
And now I know how Joan of Arc felt
Now I know how Joan of Arc felt
As the flames rose to her Roman nose
And her Walkman started to melt (Oh)
(Hoo-hoo-hoo)
Bigmouth la-da-da-dada, Bigmouth la-da-da-da
Bigmouth strikes again
And I've got no right to take my place
With the human race (Oh, oh, oh-oh)
Bigmouth la-da-da-dada, Bigmouth la-da-da-da
Bigmouth strikes again
And I've got no right to take my place
With the human race
And now I know how Joan of Arc felt (Oh)
Now I know how Joan of Arc felt
As the flames rose to her roman nose
And her hearing aid started to melt
Bigmouth la-da-da-dada, Bigmouth la-da-da-da
Bigmouth strikes again
And I've got no right to take my place
With the human race (Oh, oh, oh)
Bigmouth oh-ho-ho, ha ha, Bigmouth la-da-da-da
Bigmouth strikes again
And I've got no right to take my place
With the human race (Oh, oh, oh)
Bigmouth oh-ho-ho, ha ha, Bigmouth la-da-da-da
Bigmouth strikes again
And I've got no right to take my place
With the human race (Oh, oh, oh)
Bigmouth la-da-da-dada, Bigmouth la-da-da-da
Bigmouth strikes again
And I've got no right to take my place
With the human race (Oh, oh)
