Elvis Costello - Burnt Sugar is So Bitter слова песни
She says what has her daddy doneThat you want him to be punishedWhen she woke up one day to findThat he was starting to vanishBut _if you hope_ (? ) to hear voicesYou know you should not be listeningPush the vigilant lipsMake a slice of her faceSaid the scandalous whisperingShes not on her own with the rest of her richesAs the kids paint him out of their refrigerator bitchesShe picks up the bills and pays the babysittercause everybody knows burnt sugar is so bitterAnd once there was a timeBefore you turned strangeShe thought theyd be togetherFor more than a lifetimeLook at them nowMy, how things have changedHe can tell his sweetheartOut of any girl on just a whiffAnd turn it from a candy to a caramelAnd make her hate the silouette she used to feelAnd say "i know nothing about you."Now whats left of the birthday cakeSmeared and beautifully frostedAn absent father picks up the phoneTo find the numbers unlistedWhile the kids are distractedShell notice _shes nervous at all_ (? )But how long will it takeNot to make a mistakeWhen a gentleman comes to callShes not on her own with the rest of her richesAs the kids tear down their refrigerator picturesThey already know how a woman may advanceFrom a pretty picture hat to a supermarket tranceWhere it is unkind, she might as well forget itcause everybody knows burnt sugar is so bitterBurnt sugar is so bitterBurnt sugarBurnt sugarBurnt sugar
