Elvis Costello - King Horse Lyrics

Font:

Align:

Cheap cut satin and bad perfume

Showtime is almost here

Teased up by a strip cartoon

Laughing up your sleeve

Sniggering in your beer

Hed seen the bottom of a lot of glasses

But hed never seen love so near

Hed seen love get so expensive

But hed never seen love get so dear

Now I know that youre all king horse

Between tenderness and brute force (repeat)

She can turn upon a sixpence in the mouth and trousers set

Hit the bill, ring the bell, never spill a sip

And still she knows the kind of tip that she is gonna get

A lot of loose exchanges, precious little respect

When its someone elses weekend

Thats the best you can expect

Chorus

So fond of the fabric

So fond of fabrication

From comic books to tragic

Through the heart of complications

Meanwhile back in some secluded spot

He says will you please? and she says stop

If I ever lose this good thing that Ive got

I never want to hear the song you dedicated tonight

Cause I knew that song so long before we met

That it means much more than it might

Chorus
