Elvis Costello Flutter And Wow Lyrics

Flutter And Wow Lyrics

Last rays of sunlight die

Full moon begins to rise

Reflected in your eyes



I can't believe that this is happening

You make the motor in me

Flutter and wow



The crowd was gathering

The clock struck five, then ten

My happy tears were descending



I can't believe that this is happening

You make the motor in me

Flutter and wow



Flutter and wow

Flutter and wow

You make the motor in me

Flutter and wow

Flutter and how



The incident tape across the bed

Threading it from the needle to the head

I'm planting this thought in a magnetic field

And pushing the button and all of a sudden



Erase everything rotten

Fascinated and uptight

Make me shout out loud

Make me cry all day and night



My voice got stuck in my throat

Pulled my hand up into the sleeve of my coat

So you'd never know how it was shaking



I can't believe that this is happening

You make the motor in me

Flutter and wow



Flutter and wow

Flutter and wow

You make the motor in me

Start up and stop again



When I am spluttering

You make the motor in me

Flutter and wow

Flutter and how



Flutter and wow

Flutter and how

To the bridge



The incident tape across the bed

Threading it to the needle to the head

I'm planting the thought in a magnetic field

And pressing the button and all of a sudden



Erase everything rotten

Fascinated and uptight

Make me shout out loud

Make me cry all day and night
