Pretty Words - Elvis Costello & The Attractions[00:00:00]

Written by：Elvis Costello[00:00:01]

I ask you nicely[00:00:02]

Get my face slapped under wraps[00:00:04]

Whats going on precisely[00:00:12]

Is there something wrong perhaps[00:00:15]

Surprise surprise surprise surprise[00:00:21]

It's more like a booby trap than a booby prize[00:00:24]

Civil disobedience from a soldier with a dirty rifle[00:00:31]

Youre loosening all the screws that hold[00:00:41]

The hinges of my life[00:00:45]

Fat cats and army brats[00:00:50]

Hep cats and dog tag pawing over girly mags[00:00:53]

Pretty words dont mean much anymore[00:01:01]

I dont mean to be mean much anymore[00:01:08]

All I see are snapshots bigshots[00:01:13]

Tender spots[00:01:17]

Mug shots[00:01:19]

Machine slots[00:01:20]

Till you dont know whats what[00:01:22]

You dont know what you got[00:01:23]

Curious women running after curious men[00:01:29]

Curiosity didn't kill the cat[00:01:39]

It was a poisoned pen[00:01:41]

But theres not much choice[00:01:47]

It's hobsons choice[00:01:49]

Between a cruel mouth and a jealous voice[00:01:50]

Got back to London[00:01:57]

Picked a paper from the man[00:01:59]

No words of consolation[00:02:07]

Just cartoons and titter tatter[00:02:10]

Well well fancy that[00:02:15]

Millions murdered for a kiss me quick hat[00:02:19]

No backbone blood and guts[00:02:22]

Better keep your big mouth shut[00:02:25]

Pretty words don't mean much anymore[00:02:31]

I don't mean to be mean much anymore[00:02:37]

All I see are snapshots bigshots[00:02:42]

Tender spots[00:02:46]

Machine slots mug shots[00:02:48]

Till you don't know whats what[00:02:51]

You don't know what you got[00:02:53]

You don't know what you got[00:02:56]

You don't know what you got[00:02:59]
