Worthless Thing - Elvis Costello & The Attractions[00:00:01]

Written by：Elvis Costello[00:00:06]

How many times can you jump out of the cupboard[00:00:08]

Before someone gets suspicious or someone gets discovered[00:00:12]

You can live forever in a split second of fame[00:00:16]

Come on down the price is right what's your name[00:00:20]

While a crocodile makes good shoes and[00:00:24]

A dog may change his coat[00:00:26]

I can't change what's written on your face tonight and I quote[00:00:28]

Oh I wish you could see[00:00:34]

Quite how much you could mean to me[00:00:37]

You worthless thing[00:00:41]

If you were ten feet taller and almost handsome[00:00:43]

I might pay this king's ransom[00:00:47]

You worthless thing[00:00:51]

They commit blue murder along union avenue[00:00:56]

Then they sell you souvenir matches[00:01:00]

Night clubs full of grave robbers from memphis Tennessee[00:01:04]

And Las Vegas body snatchers[00:01:08]

And he's carrying a warning can't you see how his eyes glint[00:01:12]

Keep your bloody hands off my life your affectionate fingerprint[00:01:16]

Oh I wish you could see[00:01:22]

Quite how much you could mean to me[00:01:25]

You worthless thing[00:01:28]

If you were ten feet taller and almost handsome[00:01:30]

I might pay this king's ransom[00:01:35]

You worthless thing[00:01:39]

All the cars and pills and girls who tore his shirt to tatters[00:01:43]

Do you know how tall he was ''cause[00:01:47]

That is all that really matters[00:01:49]

Do you know his mother's last name do[00:01:51]

You think that he's divine[00:01:53]

You've seen the film you've read the book[00:01:55]

You're drinking vintage elvis presley wine[00:01:57]

Bored out of your tiny mind while life is twice as large[00:02:02]

They'll cut her down to size on television[00:02:05]

She's available and beautiful but with more time to devote[00:02:09]

They're going to take this cable now and[00:02:14]

Stick it down your throat[00:02:16]

So this is an obituary which should be right and fitting[00:02:18]

For every clockwork cat and conceivable kitten[00:02:21]

Oh I wish you could see[00:02:28]

Quite how much you could mean to me[00:02:30]

You worthless thing[00:02:35]

If you were ten feet taller and almost handsome[00:02:36]

I might pay this king's ransom[00:02:41]

You worthless thing[00:02:45]

Oh you worthless thing[00:02:48]

Oh you worthless thing[00:02:52]
