Little Savage — текст песни (Elvis Costello)

I would have waited all my life

Just to make love out of something other than spite

But the beauty is the beast youre baiting

Should really be worth the waiting



You do something very special to

Mr. average

Now the lamb lies with the lion

Hes just a little savage



And so you turn your back on me

And all the hot air that only echoes stale tobacco



Actions speak louder now than words

By just a fraction

Whats the use of saying I love you whe Im drinking to distraction

We save our sanity

By saying such and such

After all its been discussed

You say you must be touched



(chorus)
