"Sweet and Tender Hooligan" is a song by The Smiths, recorded in 1986, and released as a single in May 1995 by their American record company Sire Records. It was released to promote the compilation album ''Singles''. Whereas WEA in Europe opted to re-issue the 1986 "Ask" single to promote ''Singles'', Sire thought it wiser to put out a single containing rarities, even though none of them featured on the actual compilation, as neither "Sweet and Tender Hooligan" itself nor its supporting tracks had been previously released as a single. The title track had previously been recorded for the BBC and included on the 1987 compilation ''Louder Than Bombs'' and the 12" of "Sheila Take a Bow"; "I Keep Mine Hidden", "Work Is a Four-Letter Word" and "What's the World?" were previously hard-to-find B-sides to earlier singles "Girlfriend in a Coma" and "I Started Something I Couldn't Finish" (both 1987). The lyrics describe the lenient sentencing of a hooligan, with the narrator sarcastically taking the side of the criminal, saying "''and he'll never ever do it again / of course he won't / not until the next time''". ==Track listing== # "Sweet and Tender Hooligan" (Morrissey, Johnny Marr) – 3:35 # "I Keep Mine Hidden" (Morrissey, Marr) – 1:59 # "Work Is a Four-Letter Word" (Guy Woolfenden, Don Black) – 2:47 # "What's the World?"
