Elvis Costello - Strict Time Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Theres a hand on a wire that leads to my mouth
  • I can hear you knocking but Im not coming out
  • Dont want to be a puppet or a ventriloquist
  • cause theres no ventilation on a critical list
  • Fingers creeping up my spine are not mine to resist
  • Strict time
  • Chorus:
  • Toughen up, toughen up
  • Keep your lip buttoned up
  • Strict time
  • Oh the muscles flex and the fingers curl
  • And a cold sweat breaks out on the sweater girl
  • Strict time
  • Oh hes all hands, dont touch that dial
  • The courting cold wars weekend witch trial
  • Strict time
  • All the boys are straight laced and the girls are frigid
  • The talk is two-faced and the rules are rigid cause its strict time
  • Strict time
  • Chorus
  • You talk in hushed tones, I talk in lush tones
  • Try to look italian through the musical valium
  • Strict time
  • Thinking of grand larceny
  • Smoking the everlasting cigarette of chastity
  • Cute assistants staying alive
  • More like a hand job than the hand jive
  • Strict time
  • Chorus
