Elvis Costello - Crimes Of Paris Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • I thought it was you and your optimists view of the clock
  • And how its always another day
  • Just after twelve oclocks struck
  • You said now I only want you so I dont have to promise
  • But tiny children in grown-up clothes whispered all the crimes of paris
  • Chorus: youre not the girl next-door or a girl from france
  • Or the cigarette-girl in the sizzle hot-pants
  • All the words of love seem cruel and crass
  • When youre tough and transparent as armoured glass
  • Youre everywhere girl in an everyday mess
  • Wholl pay for the crimes of paris
  • I heard that you fell for the hell or to hammersmith blues
  • In the tiny torn up pieces of his mind hes irresistible too
  • Now its hard to say now if hes only stupid or smart
  • When he crawled through the door
  • And poured out more of his creeping-jesus heart
  • Chorus
  • And its all here and now
  • She hit him with that paper-weight eiffel tower
  • And I tried to hold on to you but I dont know how
  • And I find it hard to swallow good advice
  • Like going down three times to only come up twice
  • Shes so convenient, hes always stiff as hair-lacquer
  • Its hard to discover now hes in love with her
  • It was her way of getting her own back
  • You never did anything she couldnt do on her own
  • Youre as good as your word and thats no good to her
  • Youd better leave that kitten alone
  • Chorus
