PANIC Lyrics
Artist: The Smiths
Album: BEST...1
Panic on the streets of London
Panic on the streets of Birmingham
I wonder to myself
Could life ever be sane again ?
The Leeds side-streets that you slip down
I wonder to myself
Hopes may rise on the Grasmere
But Honey Pie, you're not safe here
So you run down
To the safety of the town
But there's Panic on the streets of Carlisle
Dublin, Dundee, Humberside
I wonder to myself
Burn down the disco
Hang the blessed DJ
Because the music that they constantly play
IT SAYS NOTHING TO ME ABOUT MY LIFE
Hang the blessed DJ
Because the music they constantly play
On the Leeds side-streets that you slip down
Provincial towns you jog 'round
Hang the DJ, Hang the DJ, Hang the DJ
Hang the DJ, Hang the DJ, Hang the DJ
HANG THE DJ, HANG THE DJ, HANG THE DJ
HANG THE DJ, HANG THE DJ
HANG THE DJ, HANG THE DJ
Hang the DJ, Hang the DJ, Hang the DJ
HANG THE DJ, HANG THE DJ
HANG THE DJ, HANG THE DJ
Hang the DJ, Hang the DJ, Hang the DJ
HANG THE DJ, HANG THE DJ
HANG THE DJ, HANG THE DJ
Hang the DJ, Hang the DJ, Hang the DJ
HANG THE DJ

Comments/Interpretations
A simple question.............What are we supposed to do with the DJ?
Hang him!
yeah! hang everybody and the DJ
hang him and burn him down
and piss on him
Its about Stve Wright...factoid
Ha ha ha! What great website. I agree, hang him, piss on him, then throw coins at his eyes.
I think this song has something to do with The Hacienda and the first time a crowd cheered a dj there, it was like the first rave party ever, theirs a movie 24 hour party people
Yeah, that's the right way to stop the anoying stuff playing guys!
this song is where panic at the disco get there name from yeah?
oui, panic did adopt their name from this song and quite rightly so it's quality :D x
this song is where panic at the disco get there name from yeah? - RAAAYT.
this isn't where they got it. they got it from a band called name taken.
Colgarlo!!!
kill a disco!
cmon boys hang all the blesse Dj´s!!
It says nothing to me about my life. Indeed.
a song of angst. a sign of the times. completely irrelevant to me but i appreciate the way they make music and how it reflects the lives the musicians lived at that time.
this is where panic at the disco got their name right?
I LOVE the SMITHS. hang the dj hang the dj hand the dj. i also love the song "stop me if you think you've heard this one before" i played that about 20 times today.
He's a witch!
no it isn't the song panic at the disco got their name from. they thought about the name "burn down the disco". but then they settled on "panic at the disco". a line from the song "panic" by name taken.
I'm 47 and was there in the 80's digging The Smiths at that time. They still hold up after all these years....chao!
I think we should hang the DJ.
This song is actually about Margaret Thatcher's tory britain. Thr DJ is the PM (thatcher) and the disco is the (political) Party, the tory party
Luv this song so much!!
Fat Whore I think I love you x
One of my faves from the 80's. Classic SMITHS
Love This song!!
hi sam, way to fill a thread with a bucket of BORRRRING!
yawn you're stating Comments/ I'm /Interpretations, so what. however good song.
give him a good hiding!
Well, nice info Sam : D
cheers sam, good fella
este tema es una masa
I've never heard something more relevant to common times! "Burn down the disco, hang the blessed DJ, Because the music that they concstantly play, It says nothing to me about my life". It's just pure and utter genius! It's so realevant to all that tripe everybody listens to now-a-days! Morrissey's a fucking genius!
Hang the english techer with the dj !!!
Ya ya i really wanna the hung it
Oh, blessed Queen I love this Band. I can't say how much this band helped me through my life. With all the bullocks that life throws at us we can always remember that The Smiths were there!
Hang the freakin' DJ
hang me too
I should be hung after butchering this song in karaoke last night
Hang every1
bless us morrissey
If God were a neurotic Englishman, he would be Morrissey.
well there is now panic on the streets of london and as of today panic on the streets of birmingham i live in humberside so could do without a riot please
wow so its happening for real now! morriseys a pleb but hes predicted the future in song. psyche!
This song is so actual...
So appropriate right now. Hang the DJ!
I love when a decades old song explains a contemporary moment perfectly. Hang the bankers hang the bankers HANG THE BANKERS!
so if this song predicted the future (that being now) which DJ is gonna hang?
It's all happening right now... will we come to the point to actually hang the DJ (prime minister) and burn down the disco (the establishment) ??
Hang the bankers! They're such wankers!
Morrissey is just a fucking visionary poet... love him
I think DJ might just stand for "Dow Jones"
visionary.....mm
Lo maximo the smithsss!!!!!...mui buenas canciones!!!...
if this song has anything to do with panic! at the disco then every member of this band and should be shot. panic are a million times better than these people who cant write for shit.
Like te song smiths I lreakly liked it make many songs for your fans and I'm one
Morrissey = musical genius
HANG THE DJ – I SAID: HANG THE DJ!!!
Hang the DJ
don't forget to poop on the dj's forehead after you're done torturing him with pee and pocketchange
fist the dj
Morrissey = self absorbed PRATT
Hang him high.. Hang em all high.
Morrisey and the Smiths have been an essential completion during the first steps of my language learning...I used to sing this song and so on to learn to speak more quickly with local people and to grasp at once. After buying a book on Morrisey here directly by the writer-seller... i 've tested his lyrics in London, Birmingham, Manchester, Liverpool, Dublin, Cork. I've missed Leeds, New Castle, Dundee...Anyway that day in London here we are in a pub -two ladies- we met an irish woman and an english man. They came from a close town, they had been married for 6 years and they used to go for shopping in London - local fancy dresses - before to go to the urban AntiChrist..... And then? Panic! Hang the dj!!!
ballerina, if you used the smiths to learn english, then you are the most awesome person in the world in any language.
I think Morrisey is one fucking boring bastard ....but he can't half pen a tune. Johnny Marr on the other hand fucking GENIUS !!!!
i think morrissey is arrogant but he CAN be ;p he's awesome;p so his arrogance is forgiven ;)
the first time i found this song out, i was learning about 'Jack the Ripper' murders in 1888, in London. this weird person started singing this song when we were learning about 'Jacky'. i found that the song fit the moment very oddly. i got chills when the weirdo stoped singing the song when the teacher gave him a detention. i looked up the song, and found that i liked it, in a scary way.
It's about jimmy savile's national noncing tour
It makes a lot more sense now that we all know about how VILE Sa-vile was.
Yeah, Panic! got their name from this song, so go Smiths and go Panic!
Savile
Hank the dj
