Elvis Costello Party Girl Lyrics

Party Girl Lyrics

They say you`re nothing but a party girl
Just like a million more all over the world
I know I shouldn`t be raising my hopes so high
But I have seen the hungry look in their eyes
They`d settle for anything in disguise of love
Seen the party girls look me over
Seen `em leaving when the party`s over

They can`t touch me now
You say you don`t mind
We`re 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 you`ll never be the guilty party girl
Maybe someday we can go hiding from this world
Maybe I`ll never get over the change in style
But I don`t want to lock you up and say you`re mine
Don`t want to lose you or say goodbye
I`m the guilty party and I want my slice
But I know you`ve got me and I`m in a grip-like vise.

They can`t touch me now
You say you don`t mind
We`re 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)
