Party Girl — текст песни (Elvis Costello)

They say youre nothing but a party girl

Just like a million more all over the world

I know I shouldnt be raising my hopes so high

But I have seen the hungry look in their eyes

Theyd settle for anything in disguise of love

Seen the party girls look me over

Seen em leaving when the partys over



They cant touch me now

You say you dont mind

Were so hard to find

I could give you anything but time

Give it just one more try

Give it a chance

Starts like fascination

Ends up like a trance



Oh youll never be the guilty party girl

Maybe someday we can go hiding from this world

Maybe Ill never get over the change in style

But I dont want to lock you up and say youre mine

Dont want to lose you or say goodbye

Im the guilty party and I want my slice

But I know youve got me and Im in a grip-like vise.



They cant touch me now

You say you dont mind

Were so hard to find

I could give you anything

I would give you anything

I can give you anything but time



Give you anything but time (repeats)
