elvis costello the attractions – men called uncle lyrics
now there’s newsprint all over your face
well, maybe that’s why i can read you like a book
just when i thought i was getting my taste to bite
i go and lose my appet-te
look at the man that you’d call uncle
they’d like to sink their teeth into you
for the pride and the pleasure
and the privilege of having you
if i say, you’re the one, do you think that i’m serious?
you get that kind of talk from older men
if i say, i love you, then i must be delirious
so why are you trying to put my temperature up again?
look at the man that you’d call uncle
having a heart attack round your ankles
when you wake up with x-rated eyes
when you wake up still shaking
how can i apologize?
as you check your effects
and check your reflection
i’m so affected in the face of your affection
look at the man that you’d call uncle
having a heart attack round your ankles
i could swear, i could promise that i’ll always be true to you
but we may not live to be so old
i could even say, i’m going to do something new to you
now, the girls i see, just leave me cold
look at the man that you call uncle
