Elvis Costello and The Attractions - Little Triggers Lyrics

Elvis Costello and The Attractions Lyrics

"Little Triggers"

Little triggers that you pull with your tongue
Little triggers
I don't wanna be hung up, strung up
When you don't call up
Little sniggers on your lips
Little triggers in your grip
Little triggers, my hand on your hip

Thinking all about those censored sequences
Worrying about the consequences
Waiting until I come to my senses
Better put it all in present tenses

Little triggers that you pull with your tongue
Little triggers
I don't wanna be hung up, strung up
When you don't call up
Little sniggers on your lips
Little triggers in your grip
Little triggers
My hand on your hip

Worrying about the common decency
When it is only a question of frequency
When you say, "Okay, but I got to cheek to be."
Saying you're tired of me
When you don't even weaken these

Little triggers that you pull with your tongue
Little triggers
I don't wanna be hung up, strung up
When you don't call up
Little sniggers on your lips
Little triggers in your grip
Little triggers
My hand on your hip
