super babe is right, it's "How Soon Is Now" by The Smiths. I have it on a CD compilation.

I have included the lyrics because EVERYONE gets them wrong. Look at the first line!

I am the son and the heir
of a shyness that is criminally vulgar
I am the son and the heir
of nothing in particular

You shut your mouth
how can you say
I go about things the wrong way
I am Human and I need to be loved
Just like everybody else does

There's a club, if you like to go
you could meet somebody who really loves you
so you go, and you stand on your own
and you leave on your own
and you go home, and you cry
and you want to die

When you say it's gonna happen "now"
well, when exactly do you mean?
see I've already waited too long

_______________________________________________________

Very controversial song.

"Son and Heir" alludes to having inherited a sexual proclivity through incestuous rape.

"There's a club, if you'd like to go" is about seeking an outlet for shameful satisfaction.
