Morrissey - The Girl From Tel-Aviv Who Wouldn't Kneel Lyrics






The girl from Tel-Aviv who wouldn't kneel
The girl from Tel-Aviv who wouldn't kneel
Nor for husband, dictator, tyrant or king
Humble homes with mottoes on the walls

Symbols and signs in framed designed
Sure to keep the poor poor
In fear of a god who hadn't saved them after all

And all of my friends are in trouble
They're sorry, they're sick and they know
All of my friends are in trouble
There's no need to go into that now

The girl from Tel-Aviv who wouldn't kneel
The girl from Tel-Aviv who wouldn't kneel
Nor for husband, dictator, tyrant or king

The sorrow my countenance shows
Is hardly worth mentioning now
Impartial application of the law
In other words legalized torture

Of princes and kings and their costly parade
Blitz them all back to the Stone Age
The American way displayed proudly
Is to show lots of teeth and talk loudly
And the land weeps oil
The land weeps oil
What do you think all these armies are for?
Just because the land weeps oil
And the land weeps oil
The land weeps oil
What do you think all these conflicts are for?
It's just because the land weeps oil

    The girl from Tel-Aviv who wouldn't kneel
    The girl from Tel-Aviv who wouldn't kneel
    Nor for her husband
    Dictator, tyrant or king

    Humble homes
    With machos on the walls
    Symbols and signs in framed designs
    Sure, to keep to poor poor
    In fear of a god, who hadn't saved them after all

    And all of my friends are in trouble
    They're sorry, they're sick and they know
    And all of my friends are in trouble
    There is no need to go into that now

    The girl from Tel-Aviv who wouldn't kneel
    The girl from Tel-Aviv who wouldn't kneel
    Nor for her husband
    Dictator, tyrant or king

    The sorrow
    My countenance shows
    Is hardly worth mentioning now
    Impartial application of the law
    In other words, legalized torture

    And all of my friends are in trouble
    They're sorry, they're sick and they know
    And all of my friends are in trouble
    But there is no need to go into that now

    Of princes and kings and their costly parade
    Blitz them all back to the Stone Age
    The American way displayed proudly
    Is to show lots of teeth and talk loudly
    And the land weeps oil
    The land weeps oil
    What do you think all these armies are for?
    Just because the land weeps oil
    Oh

    And the land weeps oil
    The land weeps oil
    What do you think all these conflicts are for?
    It's just because the land weeps oil

  15. R.... S....

    soft smooth simple love it has a salsa tengo sound to it

  16. j.... ....

    i literally love you Moz. why is he blessing us Israelis with all this?

    j.... ....

    Maybe he's trying to spread awareness that Israel is blessed & to be protected.

  17. F.... M....

    I never disliked Morrissey, never want to, he is awesome as is his band and albums, but seeing how far he has gone and still is coming with all this. Now the land is weeping oil so til next time

  18. E.... ....

    Dear Morrissey, I am a 42 year old guy and a fan since I was 16 (clumsy and shy) , I grew up in Israel during the 80's/90's and your music and poetry influenced and helped me tremendously. Thank you for honoring us with those new tracks. I can say for sure, you have many real fans in Israel to this day who love and appreciate you with all their hearts.

    E.... ....

    I think we’d get along
    💙,
    Girl from Jerusalem

  19. P.... ....

    OMG!!!!!!!! Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  20. L.... K....

    "Moz" Morrissey has been reduced to a Moz, stop!
    Viva Veganos!!!!! I don't know about this song....

  21. m.... m....

    favourite track

  22. V.... Y....

    Morrissey....!! Another masterpiece!

  23. b.... d....

    Morrissey has made one rockabilly guy very happy yet again !!!.

  24. b.... ....

    My favourite song from his new album along with "Jacky's only happy when she's up on the stage" but i have to admit that new album is downgrade comparing to "World Peace Is None of Your Business".

  25. V.... H....

    Viva Israel & Viva Iran ❤

  26. m.... ....

    It's a very good album, but this song is more than wonderful. a jewel from Morrissey (a real living artist!!!)

  27. V.... H....

    VIVA MOZZ 💙👑🌷

  28. g.... s....

    oh Moz, this is beautiful. 🖤

  29. A.... N....

    Israeli divorce allows women ZERO rights under a gross misinterpretation of the Torah. That's what this song is partially about. "Stone Age." #equality

    A.... N....

    Muslim women get acid thrown on their face if they take the burkas off

    A.... N....

    jsdjsdssa ahaha. True and sad

    A.... N....

    Ali. Maybe just maybe you should do more homework on this matter :)

  30. �.... �....

    The girl from tel aviv is a symbol of israel. Like mordechai the jewish persian. She wouldnt kneel. Lechaim morrissey!

  31. H.... w....

    My favourite track from this brilliant album.

  32. a.... m....

    AS ALWAYS MORRISSEY MAKES MAGIC, THIS SONG HITS THE TARGET HUMM FOR THE SOUL AGREE IF NOT, GO LEAP OFF THE BALCONY, LADIES OF THE JEWISH FAITH-------------SEND ME A SNILE CHEERES, ALEXX

  33. y.... m....

    love you Morrissey

  34. a.... m....

    JEWISH GIRLS DO IT BETTER DEEPER AND WETTER HELP ME SMILE JUST FOR AWHILE SEND A LETTER WALK MY WAY PLAY LIGHT MY FIRE GOOD MIND YOUR PS AND QS LIKE CROWLEY WHISPERED DO AS YO DESIRE CHEERS, BIG D DANDY JUST 4U

  35. r.... ....

    another truly dreadful song from this once great songwriter but hey it keeps his Israeli market share happy - those shekels will come in handy !

    r.... ....

    revol148 Fuck off you Nazi.

    r.... ....

    Barry Rush come to think of it there were two songs off the new album mentioning that terrorist state - just think of all those shekels! oy vey x

    r.... ....

    +yes (a) The currency is actually N.I.S (new Israeli shekels) but I digress. (b)Oh trust me - you don't have to be left-wing or even a supporter of the BDS to be objectively critical of the state of Israel - after all anyone (a right-winger like me) can visit Hebron on a tourist visa and see the situation there with my own eyes. I guess it's lucky for Zionist cheerleaders such as yourself that most tourists to Israel never go anywhere near that city and see first hand the misery Israelis heap upon the Arabs! (c) Morrissey is a businessman like most rock stars - it's the bottom line he cares about - I hardly think the BDS would even bother with an elderly 60 year old way past his artistic prime such as himself (d) Be nice to sheep - you should know you are a Zionist one after all ! x

    r.... ....

    revol148 the misery israel heaps upon arabs??? excuse me? unless "misery" means free water, electricity, and health insurance i have got no idea what you are on about.
    You should legit go to hebron, I can bet that the only thing youll see how decadent and disgusting Islam is. I have been there, as an Israeli soldier. the palestinians are oppressed, not by us, but by their religion and horrifing dictatorship of Hamas and terrorist money hungry PLO.

    never have i seen a right-winger suck muslim cock so passionatly. falling for this muslim revisionism perpetutated by the leftist media.. you are pathetic..


    Plus, Morrisey barely has a crowd in Israel?? The amount of dumb leftists who'll boycott him all around the world if he is pro-israel is wayyy bigger then the amount of fans he has here, he knows that. This is not about money, its about truth.

  36. A.... A....

    Gran cagata

  37. d.... ....

    coming close to marc almond...moz and marc almond had always had some same interest in camp and drama. where with moz its mixed with anger while marc almond with sleaze. morrissey probably hates marc almond tho and wouldn t admit this.

  38. M.... T....

    Kosher Mozza. Does it get any better? Me thinks not. Shalom.

  39. v.... d....

    Love you Morrissey

  40. F.... G....

    It's hard to find an album which you like all the tracks like this one.

  41. N.... B....

    love it

  42. S.... a....

    Hated it at first but love it now 11 out of 10

  43. R.... f....

    YES 💟

  44. A.... L....

    Wasn't sure what to make of LIHS at first but the album is seriously growing on me. His best in many years.

  45. R.... V....

    contention that the idea of god is to keep the poor poor- is Marxist..

  46. S.... E....

    Astonishing album ❤

  47. A.... K....

    Morrissey doing a tango!!! It's a great tune.
    My favourite song from LOW IN HIGH SCHOOL!

  48. �.... �....

    love from israel!!!!

    �.... �....

    Tell the arabs to stop attacking Israel.

    �.... �....

    +Barry Rush tell the Israelis to fuck off back to Moscow, Brooklyn and London where most of them came from in the first place !

    �.... �....

    revol148 I’ll wait until Muslims leave Europe and the US.

    �.... �....

    +Barry Rush Trump in the White house with his well documented love of Jewish semen, the IAF working with Saudi Arabia & the Gulf sates in military partnership, the Israeli economy on the rise with their stock market looking very strong, Syria in complete ruins, Iran isolated, Islamic state no longer a threat to Israel (not that they ever got around to attacking that country for reasons too obvious to mention)the EU signing ever more "preferential" trade with Israel, the international ISM & DBS in tatters after a ferocious crushing by the pro-Zionist press, the two-state solution in complete tatters with the two sides of Hamas and Fatah at each others throats.Do you know sometimes even a hardcore atheist like me thinks that if there is a God out there then he is firmly on the look out for Israel and the overall welfare of the Jewish people.

    �.... �....

    @revol148 Most Israeli Jews stem from non western countries like Morocco, Yemen, Irak,Iran, Sudan, Ethiopia, etc

  49. M.... B....

    J.... C....

    @Ersoy Ulubey בעיברית אומרים-חפש מי שיתקע אותך

  56. M.... R....

    Extraño el rock morriseano. Ahora todo suena como con raíces españolas o latinoamericanas, no me está gustando este disco y eso que sigo a Morrissey hace varios años. ¿Qué piensan ustedes?

    M.... R....

    a mi me parece un buen cambio, es interesante el giro que le da a las cosas, y ademas de sus letras y melodías en cada una de sus canciones, que siempre serán obras que vale la pena apreciar.

  57. S.... R....

    Good job, Morrissey!

  58. S.... R....

    bravo Mr Moz and band, this is unexpected and exotic, bravo!

  59. H.... M....

    Pure magic!

    H.... M....

    VIVA MOZZ 👑💙

  60. I.... L....

    If I´d ever have a religion, it´s Morrissey. He is genius. <3

    I.... L....

    if i'd ever have a tattoo, it would be Morrissey

    I.... L....

    If I'd ever have a preserved corpse, it's Morrissey. Positioned in the vestibule it would be a great conversation piece.

    I.... L....

    oh yes, and a tattoo would be nice.

    I.... L....

    Not so much love for the preserved corpse then??

  61. A.... A....

    LOVE U FROM THAILAND.

  62. c.... ....

    Unexpected but I like it.

  63. N.... M....

    Lyrically superb. Love this one!

  64. F.... R....

    Morrissey marry with me pleeeeeeeease!

  65. H.... K....

    It quite nearly sounds like he and Tom Waits had a few drinks together and scribbled this one on a napkin. I love it!

  66. b.... f....

    This is awesome

  67. R.... S....

    Commenting this early on a video that's gonna have tons of views sounds like the greatest responsibility I ever had. Too bad I don't know what to do with it. Uh, the song is cool, just like the rest of the album. But for Christ's sake, life is way too short for reading List of the Lost. That's it, I guess

  68. S.... E....

    Brilliant album& band ❤

  69. f.... ....

    Possibly my favourite song of the Album

    f.... ....

    fostej99 me and girlfriend as well

  70. C.... S....

    I love a jaunty, piano tune from Mozz, it's so unfamiliar but welcomed....like seeing a teacher outside of school or seeing a dog walk on its hind legs.

    C.... S....

    Haha, great imagery.

    C.... S....

    :p nice

    C.... S....

    His chemistry is very strange indeed. Strange but also seemingly wonderful.

    C.... S....

    Funny image you had with the dog walking on its hind legs lol
