"My Baby Just Whistles" lyrics
T Bone Burnett & Elvis Costello Lyrics
My pretty spy up on the dance floor
Feels just like a Cold War
Pulls down the curtain
When I knock on her door
I can't tell if she wants a kiss or a kill
My baby just whistles, here come the missiles
She comes out firing
Like an air-raid siren
She tinkers with my wiring
'Til the blast-off begins
I can't tell if she wants a kiss or a kill
My baby just whistles, here come the missiles
Early in the morning there's a four-minute warning
She's built an anatomic
Like a hydrogen bomb
I tried to run, I couldn't even call out
I fell for her just like some nuclear fallout
She comes here firing
Like an air-raid siren
She tinkers with my wiring
'Til the blast-off begins
I can't tell if she wants a kiss or a kill
My baby just whistles, here come the missiles
My baby just whistles, here come the missiles
My baby just whistles, here come the missiles
Feels just like a Cold War
Pulls down the curtain
When I knock on her door
I can't tell if she wants a kiss or a kill
My baby just whistles, here come the missiles
She comes out firing
Like an air-raid siren
She tinkers with my wiring
'Til the blast-off begins
I can't tell if she wants a kiss or a kill
My baby just whistles, here come the missiles
Early in the morning there's a four-minute warning
She's built an anatomic
Like a hydrogen bomb
I tried to run, I couldn't even call out
I fell for her just like some nuclear fallout
She comes here firing
Like an air-raid siren
She tinkers with my wiring
'Til the blast-off begins
I can't tell if she wants a kiss or a kill
My baby just whistles, here come the missiles
My baby just whistles, here come the missiles
My baby just whistles, here come the missiles
