Mission, The - Sour Puss Lyrics






Sour puss
Sour puss

I used to impress you but now I'm not so sure
I used to make you happy but now we're waging war
I used to thrill you, send shivers down your spine
I used to make you laugh but now you're such a miserable swine

So where's your sense of humour, sour puss (sour puss)?
You used to think me funny I don't [?]
Where's that sparkle in your eye, sour puss (sour puss)?
You used to make me feel like I was everything real to you

I know I can be distant, I know I'm sometimes cold
And you tried to please me if the truth is being told
I know I can be selfish and hurtful when I try
I know I can be spiteful and easily make you cry

I don't mean to be a sour puss (sour puss)
I got no excuse for all this abuse
I don't wanna be a sour puss (sour puss)
But I used to feel like I was special and real to you

Mission, The Sour Puss Comments
  1. A.... ....

    I haven't listened to this since the year it came out! Nice Cure pastische, Wayne.

  2. T.... Y....

    Worst song by the mission😕

  3. C.... ....

    Hussey- one of Britain's finest songsmiths- sadly stifled in his prime by those who refused to let him move on but still producing some damn good stuff. Another Fall from Grace was superb. Totally underrated.

  4. M.... G....

    I wonder how many songs of theirs have the element of humor.. I strangely see The Cure covering this particular track..

    M.... G....

    'She Conjures Me Wings' is one that immediately came to mind when I read your comment!

  5. E.... b....

    rare 2nd age 2nd line up

  6. R.... B....

    Youtube won't let me post links but google "Riff Raff Wayne Hussey" for the interview where the above quote originated.

  7. K.... ....

    I require sources and links.

  8. H.... C....

    Bon Jovi
    sorry but i think you are so far away:)

  9. v.... ....

    Sounds comercial like former Bon Jovi songs... My opinion, by the way.

    v.... ....

    LOL bon jovi has never sounds like this,, this is pretty much The Cure rip off

  10. t.... ....

    Bon Jovi???...what?

  11. v.... ....

    Still, the oldest The Mission is so much better. This song is also too Jon Bon Jovish for my taste!!!

    v.... ....

    Actually it sounds more like the Cure ...

  12. M.... ....

    @marekgothfather yes it was also for him because it was about him,
    But the song has nothing to with Robert Smith as you had suggested.

  13. M.... ....

    @marekgothfather Wrong. it's in fact targeted towards Craig Adams...

  14. 7.... ....

    Hell yeah! The Mission rules all!...Except Chuck Norris...And maybe sisters of mercy...or maybe not.

  15. E.... B....

    afterglow 1993

  17. v.... ....

    This song picks up a bit on The Cure's influence, I believe.

  18. l.... ....

    love the lyrics.
