Elvis Costello & the Attractions

Wave a White Flag
Take off your shoes, hang up your wingsStack up the chairs, roll up the rugSavor the things that sobriety bringsDrain in the last from a jugBut when I hit the bottle, there's no tellin' what I'll do'Cause something deep inside me wants to turn you black and blueI can't resist you, I can't waitTo twist your loving arms 'till you capitulateBeat me in the kitchen, and I'll beat you in the hallThere's nothing I love better than a free for allTo take your pretty neck and see which way it bendsBut when it is all over we will still be friendsWave a white flag, put away the pistolToo many people just can't get kissedBut if there's nothin' I can do to make amends, babyHope you don't murder meOh, was it all right, or was it okay?I'll make it all up to you somedayOh, but you didn't have to laugh that wayOh, no, you didn't have to laugh that wayWave a white flag, put away the pistolToo many people just can't get kissedBut if there's nothin' I can do to make amends, babyHope you don't murder meGee, baby, hope you don't murder me Aus Songtexte Mania
