Another Tattoo Idea Question, this time: Grammar Question.

Good morning/afternoon/evening/night/whatever.
I would like to ask You something about english grammar...

so my tattoo idea is:
place: instep
style: old school - color
pictures: maybe some stars ... wings...
TEXT: The Rolling Stones lyrics, song Saint of me.. and here comes the question.... "You'll never make a saint of me" or "You'll never make the saint of me" ??? Thanks for answering.

 

according to the lyrics and grammar as i was taught in the uk, it is 'you'll never make a saint of me'

 

hm hm... I think so I just thought it would be better to ask than having some grammar error tattoed on my body.

 

look up the original lyrics. that way you'll be sure.

 

did you say the instep....as in the instep of your foot?

that is well...not a good place for lyrics or a detailed picture.
that area of the foot gets wear and the lines get blurred and fade more quickly.

on top of that, the foot IMO is an EXTREMELY painful area. I have a tattoo on the top of my foot and I would say it was an 8/10 on the pain scale. And the bottom of you foot is supposed to hurt worse.

The pain is different for everyone. I have multiple tattoos, some in painful areas, but I have to say that my foot hurt the worst (second was my fingers lol).

"You'll never make a saint of me"

Makes more sense - and is accurate, lyrically speaking.

"You'll never make the saint of me"

Might make people wonder what you are saying, and be a little bit mysterious.

I say, take your pick.

 

thanks to all of you. I looked it up and found "a saint"... and now to the tattoo as such. I'm gonna ask my tattoo artist about lines getting blurred...

 

okie dokie. so I changed the "location" and it'll be on my back.
