Fish N Chip Paper - Elvis Costello / The Attractions

作曲：Elvis Costello

Sunday morning dandruff

turns out to be confetti

And the cost of living in sin

would make a poor man out of Paul Getty

The girl in your dreams

would have you up on an under age charge

And the man of the moment is the lifer at large

If you've got something to hide

if you've got something to sell

If you've got somebody's

pride she might kiss and tell

Or wind up with a fight fan

in the Hammersmith Hotel

You better speak up now if you want your piece

You better speak up now

It won't mean a thing later

Yesterday's news is tomorrow's fish

and chip paper

Your girl says she's leaving and this time

she really means it

You can just look at the pictures

you don't actually have to read it

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

There's a man in the launderette

and he's looking through your underwear

For clues And the milkman

is working through the News of the Screws

He says

If you've got something to hide

if you've got something to sell

If you've got somebody's pride

she might kiss and tell

Or wind up with a fight fan

in the Hammersmith Hotel

You better speak up now if you want your piece

You better speak up now

It won't mean a thing later

Yesterday's news is tomorrow's fish and chip paper

If you've got something to hide

if you've got something to sell

If you've got somebody's pride

she might kiss and tell

Or wind up with a fight fan

in the Hammersmith Hotel
