Apparently Morrisey would get the music from Jonny marr on a cassette tape, write the lyrics at home and turn up at the studios to sing so nobody knew what the song would be about until he started singing. When he sang the opening line to how soon is now, “I am the son and the heir” the producer complained to Jonny marr that the song was going to be about the weather “the sun and the air”. Probably apocryphal but a nice joke all the same. It is of course a quote from (I think) a George Elliot novel.

Hahahaha I always thought it was "mansheerah" again, just assuming it was some cool Hara Krishna shit I wouldn't understand 

 

I've just googled the lyrics and I'm not changing it 

Neither am i mate, it's up there with "a year has passed since i broke my nose..." in Message in a Bottle for lyrics i now refuse to change, despite knowing they are wrong.
