Elvis Costello - You Tripped At Every Step Lyrics

Font:

Align:

Take your tiny feet out of your mothers shoes

Or there is going to be a terrible scene

Its not just the lipstick drawn on crooked

When they find how wicked we are

How wicked we have been

How Ive been tempted

Chorus:

How you tripped at every step

You tripped at every step, you tripped at every step

How you tripped at every step

Theres a merry tune that starts in i

And ends in you, like many famous pop songs do

You would sing along with little tell-tale staggers

While balancing on daggers

Though they were killing you

You looked so deadly

Chorus

And I would try to catch you

Anytime you call

Only you drank that potion

And went out of control

Theres nothing to stop you

So how can you fall?

Let me take your hand

Put down that frying pan

Darkness would become me underneath the table

As the fury raged around the house

Your despairing tread was angry and unstable

You never suspected

Just as that cartoon mouse

Went undetected

So you tripped at every step

In another world of gin and cigarettes

Those *****tail cabinets put mud in your eye

Maybe that is why you find it hard to see me

And if you dont believe me

Before you start to cry

Dont ever leave me

As you start to lose your grip

(once you start losing your grip)

You will stumble as you slip

(and you will stumble and slip)

As you tripped at every step

You tripped at every step, you tripped at every step

As you tripped at every step
