Elvis Costello - White Knuckles Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • White knuckles came down to put the frighteners on
  • I believe shes the one that hes got his heart set on
  • It doesnt matter if your face doesnt fit
  • Theres no charge for changing it
  • Oooh ooh
  • What are you doing
  • You see right through him
  • You dont have to take it when he gets cruel
  • Chorus:
  • White knuckles on black and blue skin
  • (1,4) you dont have to take it so you just give in
  • (2,3) he didnt mean to hit her but she kept laughing
  • White knuckles sweatin on the headboard
  • He never found out what the kisser was for
  • Losing face with the boys while shes whispering in his ear
  • They never found out why they called it laughing gear
  • Maybe they werent loved when they were young
  • Maybe they should be hung by their tongues
  • Oooh ooh
  • Under the blankets with the body jerk
  • He needs her like the axe needs the turkey
  • Making a mockery of his fancy footwork
  • Chorus
  • Theres always someone new to toy with when the penny drops in the slot
  • Now its all petty crime on the news at nine
  • But its all shes got
  • Love on the never never dreams dont come cheap
  • I dont close my eyes when I go to sleep
  • Oooh ooh
  • It gets right under your skin
  • It makes you as miserable as sin but
  • You dont have to take it so you just give in
  • Chorus
  • Why dont you come round anymore
  • Mama said
  • Hes using you
  • Sister said
  • I told you so too
  • When he goes through your head
  • You took him to be true
