Accidents Will Happen - Elvis Costello & The Attractions

作词：Elvis Costello

作曲：Elvis Costello

Oh I just don't know where to begin

Though he says he'll wait forever

It's now or never but she keeps him hanging on

The silly champion she says she can't go home

Without a chaperon

Accidents will happen we only hit and run

You used to be a victim now you're not the only one

Accidents will happen we only hit and run

I don't want to hear it 'cause I know what I've done

There's so many fish in the sea

That only rise up in the sweat and smoke like mercury

But they keep you hanging on

they say you're so young

Your mind is made up but your mouth is well undone

Accidents will happen we only hit and run

You used to be a victim now you're not the only one

Accidents will happen we only hit and run

I don't want to hear it 'cause I know what I've done

And it's the damage that we do

And never know

It's the words that we don't say

That scare me so

There's so many people to see

So many people you can check up on

and add to your collection

But they keep you hanging on until you're well hung

Your mouth is made up but your mind is well undone

Accidents will happen we only hit and run

You used to be a victim now you're not the only one

Accidents will happen we only hit and run

I don't want to hear it 'cause

I know what I know what I know what

I've done

I know I know

I know I know

I know I know

I know I know

I know I know

I know I know

I know I know

I know I know

I know I know

I know I know
