"Now sleeps the crimson petal, now the white
Nor waves the cypress in the palace walk
Nor winks the gold fin in the porphyry font:
The fire-fly wakens: waken thou with me.

Now folds the lily all her sweetness up,
And slips into the bosom of the lake:
So fold thyself, my dearest, thou, and slip
Into my bosom and be lost in me."

    Which of these lyrics is NOT by The Smiths, but by Morrissey?
    A In the days when you were hopelessly poor, I just liked you more
    B Send at least one thoughtful letter, my heart goes out to you
    C Yes, we may be hidden by rags, but we've something they'll never have
    D Why pamper life's complexity, when the leather runs smooth on the passenger seat?
