Ask - Live in London, 1986 Songtext
von The Smiths

This is our new single
Ask!

Shyness is nice, and shyness can stop you
From doing all the things in life that you′d like to
Shyness is nice, and shyness can stop you
From doing all the things in life that you'd like to
So if there′s something you'd like to try
If there's something you′d like to try
Ask me, I won′t say no, how could I?

Coyness is nice, and coyness can stop you
From doing all the things in life that you want to
So if there's something you′d like to try
If there's something you′d like to try
Ask me, I won't say no, how could I?

Spending warm summer days indoors

Ask me, ask me, ask me
Ask me, ask me, ask me
Because if it′s not love
Then it's the bomb, the bomb, the bomb
The bomb, the bomb, the bomb, the bomb
Will bring us together

Nature is a language, can't you read?
Nature is a language, can anybody read?

So ask me, ask me, ask me
Ask me, ask me, ask me
Because if it′s not love
Then it′s the bomb, the bomb, the bomb
The bomb, the bomb, the bomb, the bomb
That will bring us together

If it's not love
Then it′s the bomb
Then it's the bomb
That will bring us together

So ask me, ask me, ask me
Ask me, ask me, ask me, oh la...
