Elvis Costello - Glitter Gulch Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Enter madam x painted in a shocking pink spangled dress
  • Her teeth are perfect but her mouth is loose
  • Rubbing their hands together she persuades them that its better to confess
  • Which unpleasant fate theyd like to choose
  • (chorus)
  • Every step might be your last
  • Money signs are in your eyes sucker
  • Youve been taken in this time
  • You might just get out alive if youre lucky
  • All the vultures tuning in to glitter gulch
  • Are looking in on you
  • And theyre hungry
  • He stood five feet tall in his elevator shoes and stovepipe hat
  • He was known by several different names
  • Prompted by madam x he answered all their questions
  • And then after that he said Im sick and tired of stupid games
  • (chorus)
  • Weve got prizes if you can afford
  • Some small humiliation before you get your reward
  • And Id rather be an outlaw than an inlaw to you
  • And to live my life in miserable poverty
  • Than to have to grovel to have some dream home hovel
  • So watch me while I get away with prime time robbery
  • As he enters madam x he things of red raged faces and the sweet greenbacks
  • He climbed upon his honey and he covered her with money
  • As they do their victory dance
  • He thinks I hope they choke upon their laughter tracks
  • They can all go straight to hell while we howl down the whole hotel
