Elvis Costello - Cheap Reward Lyrics

Font:

Align:

Oh, well, I feel so loose tonight I might fall to pieces

So be prepared to sweep me out the door

And I might be horizontal by the time the music ceases

So I think Ill get acquainted with the floor

Oh, I was trying to get away from the things that I always do

Hello, floorboards once again--how are you?

Lip service--well, thats all youll ever get from me

Well, how could you believe Ill take you seriously?

With your cheap rewards, your blackmail, and your comical rage

Just remember youll only be the boss so long as you pay my wage

All the sign posts on this road that point one way

Dont act like youre above me, just look at your shoes

Ill turn the light out now cause theres nothing more to say

And its all been lost before so theres nothing to lose

Oh, but you could say that you love me very painlessly

I wouldve done the same for you, oh, but you said to me:

Lip service--well, thats all youll ever get from me

Well, how could you believe Id take you seriously?

With your cheap rewards, your blackmail, and your comical rage

Just remember youll only be the boss so long as you pay my wage

Just remember youll only be the boss so long as you pay my wage
