and now I know how Joan of Arc felt,
when the flames rose to her roman nose,

The Smiths', "How Soon Is Now?"
The Funny Lyrics:
There's a club, if you like to go
You could meet somebody who really loves you
So you go, and you stand on your own
And you leave on your own,
And you go home
And you cry
And you want to die
You could meet somebody who really loves you
So you go, and you stand on your own
And you leave on your own,
And you go home
And you cry
And you want to die
Why They're funny:
Yes, Morrissey, as you do! I suppose it's just the matter of fact way he puts it. And he makes it sound so boring and predictable... as though ending up suicidal on your own at home is just your average night out. I don't know, those lines have just always made me laugh...
