ELVIS COSTELLO

ELVIS COSTELLO - 13 Steps Lead Down lyrics

rate me

When nobody knows she puts on secret clothes

And lies in the meadow with her hands tied behind her back

I won't refuse if you know how to use it

Just stop playing that ugly drug music

Chorus:

Thirteen steps lead down

Thirteen steps lead down

There's commoners and kings

And everyone's a prisoner of

Paper and glue

And a decent pair of scissors

So tonight I'm drinking to your health

Because I just can't stand myself

Thirteen steps lead down [4x]

She stands and fails

On fashion fingernails

Her lovers have her walking 'round

On instruments of torture

And one of them is poisonous

The other is a thief they say

So what one could give to her

The other cannot take away

When nobody knows she puts on secret clothes

And lies in her splendour for a picture opportunity

Cover up that bruiseput on patent leather shoes

Just stop playing that bad mood music

Chorus

Thirteen steps lead down [4x]
