Pills & Soap (Album Version) - Elvis Costello & The Attractions[00:00:00]
They talked to the sister the father and the mother[00:00:09]
With a microphone in one hand and a chequebook in the other[00:00:13]
And the camera noses in to the tears on her face[00:00:17]
The tears on her face[00:00:22]
The tears on her face[00:00:24]
You can put them back together with your paper and paste[00:00:26]
But you can't put them back together[00:00:30]
You can't put them back together[00:00:32]
What would you say[00:00:35]
What would you do[00:00:37]
Children and animals two by two[00:00:39]
Give me the needle[00:00:44]
Give me the rope[00:00:45]
We're going to melt them down for pills and soap[00:00:48]
Four and twenty crowbars jemmy your desire[00:00:56]
Out of the frying pan into the fire[00:01:00]
The king is in the counting house[00:01:05]
Some folk have all the luck[00:01:06]
And all we get are pictures of lord and lady muck[00:01:09]
They come from lovely people[00:01:13]
With a hard line in hypocrisy[00:01:15]
There are tears of mediocrity[00:01:17]
For the fag ends of the aristocracy[00:01:19]
What would you say[00:01:22]
What would you do[00:01:24]
Children and animals two by two[00:01:26]
Give me the needle[00:01:31]
Give me the rope[00:01:33]
We're going to melt them down for pills and soap[00:01:34]
Give me the needle[00:01:40]
Give me the rope[00:01:44]
The sugar coated pill is getting bitterer still[00:02:09]
You think your country needs you but you know it never will[00:02:13]
So pack up your troubles in a stolen handbag[00:02:17]
Don't dilly dally boys rally 'round the flag[00:02:22]
Give us our daily bread in individual slices[00:02:26]
And something in the daily rag to cancel any crisis[00:02:30]
What would you say[00:02:35]
What would you do[00:02:36]
Children and animals two by two[00:02:39]
Give me the needle[00:02:43]
Give me the rope[00:02:45]
We're going to melt them down for pills and soap[00:02:47]
Give me the needle[00:02:52]
Give me the rope[00:02:57]
We're going to melt them down[00:03:01]
Pills and soap[00:03:13]
