    @RainJetSprinklers I think you might find Frankly Mr Shankly, although some of the subject in the song is about being disgruntled with life, is directed more at Geoff Travis, Rough trades co founder.

    This song was not written to Billy MacKenzie, from what I’ve read Billy and Morrissey only met up briefly in 1984 for an arranged “press date” and they did not gt along that well. This song refers to a film called “Billy Liar” from 1963 where the protagonist day dreams that he is the ruler of a land called Ambrosia. Outside his day dreams he works for a crappy company and is engaged to a fat girl. I have also heard that Billy liar was also the theme for “Frankly Mr. Shankly”
