John Snow interviews Colm O'Gorman Colm O'Gorman was a victim of abuse at the hands of a parish priest. He also served in the Irish Senate and is Executive Director of Amnesty International Ireland.
As for the lyrcs I think Morrissey is taking on the role of priest whos' heart has hardened against a child who has confided abuse to him. The child is 'bad luck' for the priest as his career would be under threat if he supported the child in their accusation against another priest as such incidents as we now know were covered up to the highest level. Children who were abused in these industrial schools had no adults to confide in other than members of the religious community, priests.

It makes none.
But hey....don't let the fact that kids were abused get in the way that Jon Snow had his name spelt wrongly

I think it means that the one (kid) in the song has no good lucky. Morrissey is ironic saying that "you must be bad lucky".
I hope it's helpful...

Does anyone else find this song difficult to listen to in light of what happened to such children in Irish industrial schools? Every time I listen it puts the sorrowful thought in my mind and it stays there. I couldn't imagine what it would be like for someone connected to the Moors murders victims to listen to Suffer Little Children.
