Elvis Costello - New Amsterdam lyrics
you're sending me tulips mistaken for lilies you give me your lip after punching me silly you turn my head till it roll down the brain-drain if I had any sense now I wouldn't want it back again chorus new amsterdam it's become much too much 'til I have the possession of everything she touches 'til I step on the brake to get out of her clutches 'til I speak double dutch to a real double duchess down on the main spring listen to the tick-tock collect all the faces that move in your block twice-shy and dog-tied because you've been bitten everything you say now sounds like it was ghost-written chorus back in london they'll take you to heart after a little while though I look right at home I still feel like an exile somehow I found myself down at the dockside thinking about the old days of liverpool and rotherhide transparent people who live on the other side living a life that is almost like suicide chorus |
