Our Little Angel — текст песни (Elvis Costello)





This is the place where I made my best mistakes

This is the place even angels dont understand

Ive seen the disappointment in her face

And the collection of engagement rings on her right hand

She sits alone apart from the crowd

In a white dress she wears like a question mark

Friends speak of her fondly

Enemies just think out loud

You think youre man enough to please her

And youre fool enough to start

Youre not going to do a thing to our little angel

Theres nothing youre thinking tonight that tomorrow wont change



Now the cabaret is frozen and the laughter comes in cans

And the lonely hearts club clientele dont know what to do with their hands

You think that youll be sweet to her but everybody knows

That youre the marshmallow valentine that got stuck on her clothes

But youre not going to do a thing to our little angel

Theres nothing youre thinking tonight that tomorrow wont change



So you mix your drinks and words

You make bad jokes you make bad time

The floors are there to walk over

The walls are there to climb

You swear that youll never go back again once youre inside

Youre never the bridegroom shes always the bride

And youre not going to do a thing to our little angel

Theres nothing youre thinking tonight that tomorrow wont change



Youll come in a sweetheart and youll go out a stranger

Well you try to love her but shes so contrary

Like a chainsaw running through a dictionary

So get your mind off the sweet behind of our little angel

Youre not going to do a thing

Youre not going to do a thing

Youre not going to do a thing to our little angel
