Elvis Costello - White Knuckles слова песни
White knuckles came down to put the frighteners onI believe shes the one that hes got his heart set onIt doesnt matter if your face doesnt fitTheres no charge for changing itOooh oohWhat are you doingYou see right through himYou dont have to take it when he gets cruelChorus:White knuckles on black and blue skin(1,4) you dont have to take it so you just give in(2,3) he didnt mean to hit her but she kept laughingWhite knuckles sweatin on the headboardHe never found out what the kisser was forLosing face with the boys while shes whispering in his earThey never found out why they called it laughing gearMaybe they werent loved when they were youngMaybe they should be hung by their tonguesOooh oohUnder the blankets with the body jerkHe needs her like the axe needs the turkeyMaking a mockery of his fancy footworkChorusTheres always someone new to toy with when the penny drops in the slotNow its all petty crime on the news at nineBut its all shes gotLove on the never never dreams dont come cheapI dont close my eyes when I go to sleepOooh oohIt gets right under your skinIt makes you as miserable as sin butYou dont have to take it so you just give inChorusWhy dont you come round anymoreMama saidHes using youSister saidI told you so tooWhen he goes through your headYou took him to be true
