Elvis Costello Alibi Factory Lyrics

Alibi Factory Lyrics

You did it, `cause you want it 
Alibi, alibi 
And you took it, `cause you need it 
Alibi, alibi 
Chorus: 
But if I`ve done something wrong 
There`s no ifs and buts 
`Cause I love you just as much 
As I hate your guts 
Alibi, alibi, alibi 

You don`t need anybody 
Alibi, alibi 
But you are the only one who knows this 
Alibi, alibi 
You deserve it, `cause you`re special 
Alibi, alibi 
Maybe Jesus wants you for a sunbeam 
Alibi, alibi 

Chorus 

Bridge: 
Sometimes I`m so forgiving ohhhh oh 
Everything seems bad to me 
But I can`t go on living 
With this 
Alibi, alibi, alibi, alibi 

Insane, but I`m mundane 
Alibi, alibi 
You wanted to be famous 
Alibi alibi 
Sorry that your mummy doesn`t love you 
Alibi, alibi 
Stop me, if you`ve heard this 
Alibi, alibi 

Chorus 

(at 1999-10-15: Chicago, IL, Arie Crown Theatre only) 
And my mouth said something right 
There`s no big surprise 
There are soldiers to be killed 
But refuse to die 
Alibi, alibi, alibi, alibi
