ELVIS COSTELLO - Alibi lyrics

rate me

You did it 'cause you wanted

Alibi, alibi

And you took it

Cause you need it

Alibi, alibi

But if I've done something wrong there's no "ifs and buts"

'Cause I love you just as much as I hate your guts

Alibi, alibi, alibi...

And you don't need anybody

Alibi, alibi

But you are the only one that knows this

Alibi, alibi

You deserve it 'cause you're special

Alibi, alibi

Maybe Jesus wants you for a sunbeam

Alibi, alibi

But if I've left something out

I apologize

But if you look in my eyes

Then I'm sure you'll see...

Alibis, alibis, alibis...

Sometimes I'm so forgiving

Everything seems bad to me

But I can't go on living

With this alibi, alibi, alibi...

"Insane," what a mundane

Alibi, alibi

And you only wanted to be famous

Alibi, alibi

Sorry, but your mommy doesn't love you

Alibi, alibi

Stop me if you've heard this...

Alibi, alibi

But if I've done something right then don't be surprised

There are soldiers who will kill but refuse to die

But if I've done something wrong there's no "ifs and buts"

'Cause I love you just as much as I hate your guts

Alibi, alibi, alibi, alibi...

You were weak...

You couldn't help it

Alibi, alibi

But you never had a pony

Alibi, alibi

Chorus

And you're such a people person

Alibi, alibi

And I will be true to you forever

Alibi, alibi

But you're stupid and you're lazy

Alibi, alibi

Maybe we can make the future better

Alibi, alibi

Chorus

Sometimes I'm so forgiving

Everything seems bad to me

But I can't go on living

With this alibi, alibi, alibi...

You were happy when you were poor

And more honest and that's your...

Alibi, alibi

Sister is a whore, brother isn't sure

Alibi, alibi

You don't fit the body that you're trapped in

Alibi, alibi

Papa's got a brand new...

Alibi, alibi

But if I've done something wrong there's no "ifs and buts"

'Cause I love you just as much as I hate your guts

But if I've left something out

I apologize

But if you look in my eyes

Then I'm sure you'll see...

Alibis, alibis, alibis...
