Elvis Costello My Lovely Jezebel

Tekst piosenki

[Verse 1]
She attracts dark rumours
Travels in blue and other humours
Each time she walks in the room
Brings in much more than you’d assume

[Chorus]
Ooo, I looked in her eyes
And out through that window I fell
She’s My Lovely Jezebel
She neglects you and then ransacks you so very well

[Verse 2]
She suspects your sweet confection
When you talk in contradictions
Then she walks without detection
Overrules all your objections

[Chorus]
Ooo, I looked in her eyes
And through that window I fell
She’s My Lovely Jezebel

[Verse 3]
Man is miserable ape and sad pile of sticks
He comes out swinging, gets in a few licks
The longest of drumrolls for the shortest of tricks

[Verse 4]
So she attracts bad intentions
She distracts all my attention
With her ways and her wild inventions
The facts of life they forgot to mention

[Chorus]
Ooo, I looked in her eyes
And down through that window I fell
She’s My Lovely Jezebel
She neglects you and then ransacks you so very well
