One guy says it was Misserry and the other that it was Malcolm Muggeridge. But there is no definitive answer.
Morrissey wasn’t good enough on piano to have played this, IMHO, as evidenced by his performance on the outro on “I Threw Myself Down a Well at The Mothers’ Union Meeting”.
So, I broke into the palace
With a sponge and a rusty spanner
She said : “Eh, I know you, and you cannot sing”
I said : “That’s nothing - you should hear me play piano”
“Haven’t had a dream in a long time.
See, the life I’ve had could make a good man bad.
So for once in my life let me get what I want;
Lord knows it would be the last time.
Lord knows it would be the first time.”
Well, perhaps Morrissey did address this haircut issue by entitling his first solo album Suedehead. And it did include the classic track “Hairdresser on Fire.”
“And you’re just too busy
To see me
Busy clippers
Oh, hairdresser on fire
(only the other day)”
No marr did not Do everything in the band period let’s not forget about mike joyce and andy rourke period especially without andy rorke’s baselines though songs would not have sounded the same at all
