Lyrics for Shabby Doll by Elvis Costello:
| | | Artist: | Elvis Costello |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Shabby Doll | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 79 | | | | Lyrics: | Giving you more of what for
Always worked for me before
Now I'm a shabby doll
What's
going on behind the green elevator door
With just a shabby doll
There's a hit man
facing
A compromising situation
With just a shabby doll
And a very neat line in
character assassination
She's just a shabby doll
She's just a shabby doll
She's
putting him off and putting you on
She's just the shabby doll
You're swearing upon you know
in your heart
She's gone you know in your heart
She's just a shabby doll
There's a
girl in this dress
There's always a girl in distress
She's just a shabby doll
She's so
sure she's self-possessed
Then again she's half undressed
She's just a shabby
doll
The boy that I used to be
Showed no sign of sympathy
For just a shabby
doll
I have betrayed you and me
And paid for my own bribery
With just a shabby
doll
(chorus)
He's the tired toy that everyone enjoyed
He wants to be a fancy
man but he's nothing but a antsy boy
He's all pride and no joy
And being what you might
call a whore
Always worked for me before
Now I'm a shabby doll
Untie the gag the cat's
out of the bag
But won't show his claws
He's just a shabby doll
She said you must
be joking
Some things are left unspoken
You're just a shabby doll
He's lying limp and
soaking
He was openly broken
By just a shabby doll
