ELVIS COSTELLO - Sad About Girls lyrics

rate me

To all the girls that awake to escape in the morning

You want to leave him without even a warning, a trace, or a calling card

Sad about girls who know perfectly well why he's so sad about this girl

He's so mad about this girl tonight

So understanding--oh, she's so undemanding

So in control, so on the whole--she's so good to you until it gets to you

Sad about girls in your polythene world

Where you unwrap and rewrap and know when she leaves

That the next girl to suffer, putting you [posed?]

Unwrap and love you before she can know you

She's just got to show you the way that you're gonna be sad

Sad about girls that awake to escape in the morning

Get up and leave without even a warning

But no where is sad as the girls in the night

So ready to please you, so ready to bite

Sad about girls who know perfectly well he's so sad about this girl

You're so sad about your girl tonight

Sad about girls tonight

So sad about girls tonight
