Love Went Mad Lyrics by Elvis Costello

Love Went Mad Lyrics

    I've looked at it every way i can
    From under and above
    And every chance i've had
    My love went mad
    Love went mad love went mad
    You you feel like i feel?
    Do you have a heart?
    Do you have a heart of iron and steel?

    Are you a man now you wear a man's hat?
    Are you a man now or are you a rat?
    You go to church quiet as a mouse
    You're a big cheese now in the workhouse
    With these vulgar fractions of the treble clef
    I wish you luck with a capital 'f'
    A self-made mug is hard to break
    A silent partner in someone else's mistake

    Every day goes by without a hitch
    You feel the urge becoming an itch
    The boys in blue are hard to catch
    They're busy turning piccadilly
    Into brands hatch
    But with your fingers in your ears
    Feeling bright as a button
    Thinking 'thank god there'll be no more
    Lamb dressed as mutton'
    Playing family favourites on a tissue and a comb
    Dying a thousand deaths
    In the safety of your own home
