[00:00:00] Life Shrinks - Elvis Costello & The Attractions

[00:00:00] Written by：Elvis Costello

[00:00:00] Shall I wear a buttonhole to jog your memory

[00:00:05] So you'll recall the promise

[00:00:08] That I swore you made to me when we were younger

[00:00:12] You look sorry for yourself but what about

[00:00:16] I'm some idea you're not without a doubt

[00:00:19] So you can put away that tongue

[00:00:23] I don't know who I'm trying to kid

[00:00:26] I'll find another name for you

[00:00:29] I'll try to put the blame on you

[00:00:32] For everything we did

[00:00:35] Life shrinks and before you know it

[00:00:39] You have forgotten all the cuts and bruises

[00:00:45] Just be thankful we were only fighting for buttons

[00:00:53] And you know by now who loses

[00:01:09] You're only half awake because you never go to bed

[00:01:14] And when he hears about it

[00:01:17] You know then the both of you's is dead and that s a promise

[00:01:20] You'll be sorry because I won't tell you again

[00:01:24] You'll stick like that one day

[00:01:27] And if you don't believe me go and ask st thomas

[00:01:32] I don't know where it s going to stop

[00:01:35] Spend your whole time trying to stay

[00:01:38] From breaking down or running away

[00:01:41] Or trying to keep up

[00:01:44] Life shrinks and before you know it

[00:01:47] You have forgotten all the cuts and bruises

[00:01:54] Just be thankful we were only fighting for buttons

[00:02:02] And you know by now who loses
