The story behind the song

This song, featured on The Smiths' 1986 album The Queen Is Dead, carries a distinctive humor and a touch of melancholy. Its lyrics, penned by Morrissey, include a nod to Hank Locklin's "Send Me the Pillow You Dream On" and touch on themes of unemployment with the phrase "the Dole Age," referencing the significant number of people without jobs in the UK at the time. Johnny Marr composed the music, which features a unique intro designed to sound like a door opening and closing. It plays like a wry observation on life's varied experiences, blending a lighthearted tone with underlying social commentary.
