Alison Lyrics by Elvis Costello

Alison Lyrics

    Oh, it's so funny to be seeing you after so long, girl

    And with the way you look, I understand that you were not impressed

    But I heard you let that little friend of mine

    Take off your party dress

    I'm not gonna get too sentimental

    Like those other sticky valentines

    'Cause I don't know if you are loving some body

    I only know it isn't mine



    Alison, I know this world is killing you

    Oh, Alison, my aim is true



    Well, I see you've got a husband now

    Did he leave your pretty fingers lying in the wedding cake?

    You used to hold him right in your hand

    I bet he took all that he could take

    Sometimes I wish that I could stop you from talking

    When I hear the silly things that you say

    I think somebody better put out the big light

    'Cause I can't stand to see you this way



    Alison, I know this world is killing you

    Oh, Alison, my aim is true

    My aim is true

    My aim is true

    (REPEAT AND FADE)
