Elvis Costello No Action Lyrics

No Action Lyrics

I don`t wanna kiss you. I don`t wanna touch.
I don`t wanna see you `cause I don`t miss you that much.
I`m not a telephone junkie.
I told you that we were just good friends.
But when I hold you like I hold that bakelite in my hands,

there`s no action,
there`s no action,
there`s no action.
Ev`ry time I phone you, I just wanna put you down.

He`s got the keys to the car.
They are the keys to the kingdom.
He`s got ev`rything you need.
It`s a shame that he didn`t bring them.
I`m not a telephone junkie.
If I`m inserting my coin I`m doing just fine.
And the things in my head start hurtin` my mind.
And I think about the way things used to be,
knowing you with him is driving me crazy.
Sometimes I phone you when I know you`re not lonely,
but I always disconnect it in time.
