How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Annotation

“A Rush and a Push and the Land is Ours” opens the album with a dreamlike sequence followed by an otherworldly thumping beat.

A unique feature of the song is that it is one of the only Smiths' songs which solely uses keyboards rather than guitar, highlighting its throwback sound and somewhat haunting element.
