The Smiths - sheila take a bow

이 노래는 자립에 대한 바람과 함께 사랑의 중요성을 이야기한다
슬픈 감정이 나쁜 것이 아님을 강조하며, 사랑하는 사람과 함께하는 것을 권장한다
가사 전반에 걸쳐 사랑과 기쁨의 순간을 찾으라는 메시지가 담겨 있다

Is it wrong to want to live on your own?
No, it's not wrong, but I must know
How can someone so young sing words so sad?
Sheila take a, Sheila take a bow
Boot the grime of this world in the crotch, dear
And don't go home tonight
Come out and find the one that you love and who loves you
The one that you love and who loves you (Oh)
Is it wrong not to always be glad?
No, it's not wrong, but I must add
How can someone so young sing words so sad?
Sheila take a, Sheila take a bow
Boot the grime of this world in the crotch, dear
And don't go home tonight
Come out and find the one that you love and who loves you
The one that you love and who loves you (Oh)
Take my hand and off we stride
Oh, la, la, la, la-la-la, la, la
You're a girl and I'm a boy
La, la, la, la, la-la-la, la
La, la, la-la-la-la-la
Take my hand and off we stride
Oh, la, la, la, la-la-la, la, la
I'm a girl and you're a boy
La, la, la-la-la-la
La, la, la-la-la-la
