About

A track from Morrissey’s 13th studio album, an album which was described by its producer as Morrissey’s “boldest and most adventurous album yet”.

Once I Saw the River Clean Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Once I saw the river clean
Distant future, wait for me
I grow pleasing to the eye
And the queue will queue for me
Once I saw the river clean
Soon the clock will strike for me
Childish mind anticipates
Grown-up mind consummates

[Verse 2]
I walked with my grandmother
Down a windblown Chester Road
With her fifty-two new pence
For her twenty number-tens
And my forty-five pence too
Demand "Metal Guru"
Once with hearts securely stacked
Then we walked all the way back

[Verse 3]
I walked with my grandmother
Along the groan of Talbot Road
In the gardens by the graves
I can just about behave
Arrogant and paranoid
All around, see fathead youth
Look into their brutal eyes
But only if you want the truth

[Verse 4]
Once I saw the river clean
Scratching up the latest scheme
Time will come but it hasn't yet
Someone’s out to get me
I walked with my grandmother
Cornbrook Street, where incomplete
She would never be again
A Dublin dancer, free and young
