Elvis Costello

Elvis Costello - Motel Matches lyrics

Somewhere in the distance I can hear "Who Shot Sam?"

This is my conviction, that I am an innocent man

Though you say I'm unkind

I'm being as nice as I can

Boys everywhere, fumbling with the catches

I struck lucky with motel matches

Falling for you without a second look

Falling out of your open pocketbook

Giving you away like motel matches

I wake with the siren in an emergency

Though your mind is full of love

In your eyes there is a vacancy

And you know what I'll do

When the light outside changes from red to blue

Chorus
