Fish n Chip Paper — текст песни (Elvis Costello)

When sunday morning dandruff turns out to be confetti

And the cost of living in sin would make a poor man out of paul getty

The girl in your dreams would have you up on an under age charge

And the man of the moment is the lifer at large



Chorus:

If youve got something to hide, if youve got something to sell

If youve got somebodys pride she might kiss and tell

Or wind up with a fight fan in the hammersmith hotel

You better speak up now if you want your piece

You better speak up now

It wont mean a thing later

Yesterdays news is tomorrows fish and chip paper



Your girl says shes leaving and this time she really means it

You can just look at the pictures, you dont actually have to read it

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

Theres a man in the launderette and hes looking through your underwear

For clues

And the milkman is working through the news of the screws



He says...

Chorus
