"This Year's Girl" lyrics
Elvis Costello and The Attractions Lyrics
"This Year's Girl"
See her picture in a thousand places
'Cause she's this year's girl
You think you all own little pieces
Of this year's girl
Forget your fancy manners
Forget your English grammar
'Cause you don't really give a damn about this year's girl
Still, you're hoping that she's well-spoken
'Cause she's this year's girl
You want her broken with her mouth wide open
'Cause she's this year's girl
Never knowing it's a real attraction
All these promises of satisfaction
While she's being bored to distraction
Being this year's girl
Time's running out
She's not happy with the cost
There'd be no doubt
Only she's forgotten much more than she's lost
A bright spark might corner the market
In this year's girl
You see yourself rolling on the carpet
With this year's girl
Those disco synthesizers
Those daily tranquilizers
Those body building prizes
Those bedroom alibis
All this, but no surprises, for this year's girl
All this, but no surprises, for this year's girl
All this, but no surprises, for this year's girl

Don't lie to me
Don't lie to me

Billy Bragg - "She's Got A New Spell" What is that sound
Where is it coming from
All around
What are you running from
Something you don't understand
Something you cannot command
That's how I know

Yes, that's how I...
Iggy Pop - "Fall In Love With Me" You look so good to me
Here in this old saloon
Way back in West Berlin
A bottle of white wine
White wine and you
A table made of wood
And how I wish you would
Fall in love with me
You look so...
