Our Little Angel - Elvis Costello[00:00:01]
This is the place where I made my best mistakes[00:00:12]
This is the place even angels don't understand[00:00:18]
I've seen the disappointment in her face[00:00:24]
And the collection of engagement rings[00:00:29]
On her right hand[00:00:34]
She sits alone apart from the crowd[00:00:37]
In a white dress she wears like a question mark[00:00:42]
Friends speak of her fondly[00:00:49]
Enemies just think out loud[00:00:52]
You think you're man enough to please her[00:00:56]
And you're fool enough to start[00:01:00]
You're not going to do a thing[00:01:05]
To our little angel[00:01:09]
There's nothing you're thinking tonight[00:01:13]
That tomorrow won't change[00:01:17]
Now the cabaret is frozen and the laughter comes in cans[00:01:20]
And the lonely hearts club clientele don't know what to do with their hands[00:01:28]
You think that you'll be sweet to her but everybody knows[00:01:36]
That you're the marshmallow valentine that got stuck on her clothes[00:01:43]
But you're not going to do a thing[00:01:52]
To our little angel[00:01:56]
There's nothing you're thinking tonight that tomorrow won't change[00:02:00]
So you mix your drinks and words[00:02:25]
You make bad jokes you make bad time[00:02:28]
The floors are there to walk over[00:02:33]
The walls are there to climb[00:02:36]
You swear that you'll never go back again[00:02:40]
Once you're inside[00:02:45]
You're never the bridegroom she's always the bride[00:02:49]
And you're not going to do a thing[00:02:57]
To our little angel[00:03:01]
There's nothing you're thinking tonight that tomorrow won't change[00:03:05]
You'll come in a sweetheart and you'll go out a stranger[00:03:12]
Well you try to love her but she's so contrary[00:03:20]
Like a chainsaw running through a dictionary[00:03:23]
So get your mind off the sweet behind of our little angel[00:03:28]
You're not going to do a thing[00:03:36]
You're not going to do a thing[00:03:40]
You're not going to do a thing[00:03:44]
To our little angel[00:03:51]
