Elvis Costello piosenki

Gigi Am I a fool without a mind? Or have I nearly been too blind to realize Oh, Gigi While you've been growing up before my eyes Gigi You're not all that funny or quick little girl I knew No, overnight there's been a breathless change in you Oh, Gigi While y...

There are some things you can't cover up with lipstick and powder Thought I heard you mention my name, can't you talk any louder? Don't come any closer, don't come any nearer My vision of you can't get any clearer Oh, i just want to hear girls talk I got a lo...

Well, enter Madam X Painted in a shocking pink spangled dress Her teeth are perfect but her mouth is loose Rubbing their hands together She persuades them that it's better to confess Which unpleasant fate they'd like to choose Every step might be your last Mo...

Sunday is gloomy, my hours are slumberless Dearest, the shadows I live with are numberless Little white flowers will never awaken you Not when the black coach of sorrow has taken you Angels have no thought of ever returning you Would they be angry if I thought...

Now I have nothing So God give me strength 'Cause I'm weak in her wake And if I'm strong I might still break And I don't have anything to share That I won't throw away into the air That song is sung out This bell is rung out She was the light that I'd bless S...

I wish you'd known me when I was alive, I was a funny feller The crowd would hoot and holler for more I wore a drunk's red nose for applause Oh yes I was a comical priest "With a joke for the flock and a hand up your fleece" Drooling the drink and the l...

They say that today makes up for what yesterday lacked And it must be some old day and that is a fact Can’t talk to nobody, don’t know just how they’ll react Weigh the silver and gold Be precise and exact How can today make up for yesterday For it we br...

can hardly bear the sight of lipstick on the cigarettes there in the ashtray Lyin' cold the way you left 'em, but at least your lips caressed them while you packed Or the lip-print on a half-filled cup of coffee that you poured and didn't drink But at least yo...

Mother, Father, I'm here in the zoo I can't come home 'cause I've grown up too soon I got my sentence I got my command They said they'd make me major if I met all their demands I could be a corp'ral into corp'ral punishment Or the gen'ral manager of a large e...

There's a smart young woman on a light blue screen Who comes into my house every night. And she takes all the red, yellow, orange and green And she turns them into black and white. But you tease, and you flirt And you shine all the buttons on your green shirt...

No, don't ask me to apologise. I won't ask you to forgive me.� If I'm gonna go down, you're gonna come with me You say 'Why don't you be a man about it, like they do in the grown-up movies?' But when it comes to the other way around, you say you just wanna us...

He selects the plainest face From a spiteful row of girls Elegant insulted women A flaw of cultured pearls He drops a name or two She fails to catch At last he's met his match Unspoiled and unaffected, he wants her so much She puts up half-hearted resistance...

I got the picture that you gave to me And it's signed with love, just like it used to be The only thing different, the only thing new I got the picture, he's got you I got the records that we used to share And they still sound the same, as when you were here...

We used to call it Sin City now it's gone way past that. Painting the town and then burning it down. And even that's old hat. Now there' a choir of angles and the fall of Rome singing "Ave Maria" or "Home Sweet Home" Chorus: It's just a heathen town I hear on...

Her lips are sweet Her legs are big Her looks can make you Dance the jig Her touch is so soft Her heart is so warm What knocks me out Is your hidden charms Her voice is so soft Her love is so true I think about her That's all I do She's weak and wanton In my...

I'm sorry to say that you don't know me I'm sad in ways you never understood Each time I try to tell the ugly truth You always let it pass you by You said I 'd never tell you a lie Just because I could Did you really think I was a bad man? You always sa...

Some things you never get used to Even though you're feeling like another man There's nothing that he can do for you To shut me away as you walk through Lovers laughing in their amateur hour Holding hands in the corridors of power Even though I'm with somebody...

Come into this house and stop that yakity yak 'Cause your sugar-daddy don't want no talkin' back You keep on babblin', talkin' 'bout this and that I got news for ya baby, you ain't nothin' but an alley cat Turn off the waterworks baby, they don't move me no m...

Who do you see when you turn your eyes down? Who do you see when I'm not seeing you? The news is out all over town and all these girls Are taking turns at being you Chorus: Well, well, well You'd better make up your mind Honey, are you straight or are yo...

Five miles out of London on the Western Avenue Must have been a wonder when it was brand new Talkin' 'bout the splendour of the Hoover factory I know that you'd agree if you had seen it too It's not a matter of life or death But what is, what is ? It doesn't m...
