Elvis Costello - Shatterproof Lyrics

Font:

Align:

I see those newly weds

Their eyes wide and believing

They bill and coo at the mention of chez nous

Appearances can be deceiving

Its just a door and a window

Four walls and a roof

But a home of your own would be shatterproof

A door and a window

Four walls and a roof

But a home of your own would be shatterproof

We papered over all the cracks

And painted a cats lick and a promise

The landlord was a man of few words

And most of them were ominous

Its just a door and a window

Four walls and a roof

But a home of your own would be shatterproof

A door and a window

Four walls and a roof

But a home of your own would be shatterproof

It was nothing really to write home about

Then one day it all appears too much

Here comes my little hammer and its shatterproof touch

He said, be practical,

These are most unreasonable demands.

Forget about the broken spectacles

And the damage to your hand.

Its just a door and a window

Four walls and a roof

And the doctors say Im almost shatterproof
