《Charm School》歌词

[00:00:00] Charm School (Album Version) - Elvis Costello & The Attractions

[00:00:18] Men made out of monkeys men made into mice

[00:00:23] Happy days are here again

[00:00:25] And all the drinks half price

[00:00:27] A girl with a trick and a man with a calling

[00:00:37] Trying to make a living out of your down falling

[00:00:41] Trying to make a living out of anything at all

[00:00:46] Didn't they teach you anything except how to be cruel

[00:00:51] In that charm school

[00:00:56] You and I as lovers were nothing but a farce

[00:01:00] Trying to make a silk purse out of a sow's arse

[00:01:05] Saying Why don't you watch me

[00:01:08] Hardly speaking sotto voce

[00:01:15] Trying to make a living out of your down falling

[00:01:19] Trying to make a living out of anything at all

[00:01:24] Didn't they teach you anything except how to be cruel

[00:01:29] In that charm school

[00:01:34] I've got a notion I've got an angle

[00:01:38] Take your dreams and promises

[00:01:41] And put them through the mangle

[00:01:43] They say it's hell to finance too

[00:01:46] And I just want to romance you

[00:02:02] In this perpetual nightclub I'll be yours eternal

[00:02:07] Though the hours are long and the noise infernal

[00:02:12] Just one shameful act or sometimes two

[00:02:15] We make believe we're making do

[00:02:21] Trying to make a living out of your down falling

[00:02:26] Trying to make a living out of anything at all

[00:02:31] Didn't they teach you anything except how to be cruel

[00:02:35] In that charm school

[00:02:40] Didn't they teach you anything except how to be cruel

[00:02:45] In that charm school in that charm school
