Píseň: Lipstick Vogue

Interpret:
Elvis Costello
Album:
This Year's Model
Don't say you love me when it's just a rumour
Don't say a word if there is any doubt
Sometimes I think that love is just a tumour
You've got to cut it out


You say you're sorry for the things that you've done
You say you're sorry but you know you don't mean it
I wouldn't worry, I had so much fun
Sometimes I almost feel just like a human being


It's you,
not just anouther mouth in the lipstick vogue
It's you,
not just anouther mouth in the lipstick vogue
Oh yeah


Get to the slot machine, almost dead on arrival
Just hit me one more time with that live wire
Maybe they told you you were only a girl in a million
You say I've got no feelings, this is a good way to kill them


Select the control and then insert the token
You wanna throw me away but I'm not broken
You've got a lot to say--well, I'm not joking
There are some words they don't allow to be spoken
Sometimes I almost feel just like a human being


It's you,
not just anouther mouth in the lipstick vogue
