Elvis Costello

Elvis Costello - Wednesday Week lyrics

The movies save on conversation

And the TV saves on sight

We met in a head-on collision

So I would say our chances would be slight

You can lead and I will follow

See us dancing cheek to cheek

You'll remember me tomorrow

But you won't give a damn by Wednesday Week

Say you love me until you do so

Joso singing just like Caruso

Three little words roll off your tongue

Somehow your face just doesn't look so young

You say you want to strike a bargain

Now there is no need to speak

You say you want to learn the jargon

But you won't give a damn by Wednesday Week

You start acting like a zombie

Someone wants your piece of cake

You think you want to jump up on me

But you won't give a damn by Wednesday Week

Oh what a letdown when the battle was finally won

One little breakdown and then it was over and done

I wish I had your confidence

It's love and not coincidence

Do you say these words to everyone ?

You're fantastic, you're terrific

Your excellence is almost scientific

You took the words out of my mouth

You put the tongue into my cheek

But I'd better lose my memory by Wednesday Week
