Sweetness, sweetness I was only joking
When I said I'd like to
Smash every tooth in your head
Oh, sweetness, sweetness, I was only joking
When I said by rights you
Should be bludgeoned in your bed
And now I know how Joan of Arc felt
Now I know how Joan of Arc felt
As the flames rose to her Roman nose
And her Walkman started to melt
Bigmouth, la-da-da-da-da
Bigmouth, la-da-da-da
Bigmouth strikes again
And I've got no right to take my place
With the human race, oh, oh, ooh
Bigmouth, la-da-da-da-da
Bigmouth, la-da-da-da
Bigmouth strikes again
And I've got no right to take my place
With the human race
And now I know how Joan of Arc felt
Now I know how Joan of Arc felt
As the flames rose to her Roman nose
And her hearing aid started to melt
Bigmouth, la-da-da-da-da
Bigmouth, la-da-da-da
Bigmouth strikes again
And I've got no right to take my place
With the human race, oh, oh, ooh
Bigmouth, oh oh oh, ha ha
Bigmouth, la-da-da-da
Bigmouth strikes again
And I've got no right to take my place
With the human race, oh, oh, ooh
Bigmouth, oh oh oh, ha ha
Bigmouth, la-da-da-da
Bigmouth strikes again
And I've got no right to take my place
With the human race, oh, oh, ooh
Bigmouth, la-da-da-da-da
Bigmouth, la-da-da-da
Bigmouth strikes again
And I've got no right to take my place
With the human race
When I said I'd like to
Smash every tooth in your head
Oh, sweetness, sweetness, I was only joking
When I said by rights you
Should be bludgeoned in your bed
And now I know how Joan of Arc felt
Now I know how Joan of Arc felt
As the flames rose to her Roman nose
And her Walkman started to melt
Bigmouth, la-da-da-da-da
Bigmouth, la-da-da-da
Bigmouth strikes again
And I've got no right to take my place
With the human race, oh, oh, ooh
Bigmouth, la-da-da-da-da
Bigmouth, la-da-da-da
Bigmouth strikes again
And I've got no right to take my place
With the human race
And now I know how Joan of Arc felt
Now I know how Joan of Arc felt
As the flames rose to her Roman nose
And her hearing aid started to melt
Bigmouth, la-da-da-da-da
Bigmouth, la-da-da-da
Bigmouth strikes again
And I've got no right to take my place
With the human race, oh, oh, ooh
Bigmouth, oh oh oh, ha ha
Bigmouth, la-da-da-da
Bigmouth strikes again
And I've got no right to take my place
With the human race, oh, oh, ooh
Bigmouth, oh oh oh, ha ha
Bigmouth, la-da-da-da
Bigmouth strikes again
And I've got no right to take my place
With the human race, oh, oh, ooh
Bigmouth, la-da-da-da-da
Bigmouth, la-da-da-da
Bigmouth strikes again
And I've got no right to take my place
With the human race

Joan of Arc died for her beliefs. Morrissey has been constantly derided for his beliefs, and in some cases his perceived beliefs because the media is full of crashing bores (to use his own description). It is autobiographical - he's the Bigmouth of the title. Things get said in anger... hence all the imagery of smashing teeth in.
