Wednesday Week Lyrics by Elvis Costello

Wednesday Week Lyrics

    The movies save on conversation
    And the tv saves on sight
    We met in a head-on collision
    So i would say our chances would be slight
    You can lead and i will follow
    See us dancing cheek to cheek
    You'll remember me tomorrow
    But you won't give a damn by wednesday week

    Say you love me until you do so
    Joso singing just like caruso
    Three little words roll off your tongue
    Somehow your face just doesn't look so young
    You say you want to strike a bargain
    Now there is no need to speak
    You say you want to learn the jargon
    But you won't give a damn by wednesday week
    You start acting like a zombie
    Someone wants your piece of cake
    You think you want to jump up on me
    But you won't give a damn by wednesday week

    Oh what a letdown when the battle was finally won
    One little breakdown and then it was over and done
    I wish i had your confidence
    It's love and not coincidence
    Do you say these words to everyone ?
    You're fantastic, you're terrific
    Your excellence is almost scientific
    You took the words out of my mouth
    You put the tongue into my cheek
    But i'd better lose my memory by wednesday week
