Lyrics for Sundays Best by Elvis Costello:
| | | Artist: | Elvis Costello |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Sundays Best | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 66 | | | | Lyrics: | Times are tough for English babies
Send the army and the navy
Beat up strangers who talk
funny
Take their greasy foreign money
Skin shop, red leather, hot line
Be prepared
for the engaged sign
Bridal books, engagement rings
And other wicked little things
Chorus:
Standing in your socks and vest
Better get it off your chest
Every day
is just like the rest
But Sunday's best
Stylish slacks to suit your pocket
Back
supports and picture lockets
Sleepy towns and sleeper trains
To the dogs and down the
drains
Major roads and ladies smalls
Hearts of oak and long trunk calls
Continental
interference
At death's door with life insurance
Chorus
Sunday's best,
Sunday's finest
When your money's in the minus
And you suffer from your shyness
You
can listen to us whiners
Don't look now under the bed
An arm, a leg and a severed
head
Read about the private lives
The songs of praise, the readers' wives
Listen to
the decent people
Though you treat them just like sheep
Put them all in boots and khaki
Blame it all upon the darkies
Chorus
