Forgive Her Anything - Elvis Costello
(Written by Elvis CostelloTranscribed by Craig Ciccone w/ Bolan's Corrections)
Oha TV went off like three day old milk
That shook this town down better than most
And it always was less of idea and more of a boast
Ohyou're burning in the bloom of life
'Til you're powder in the grave
Or you're pounding in the counter beggin' for more
'Til you evaporate
You'd forgive her anything
If you look like youmy pretty Miss
I wonder where you are tonight
And this place becomes pityless
OhI couldn't sleepbut I can't complain
Ohthis won't hurt a bitohthis won't hurt again
When the roof comes down and the walls move in
Ohhe didn't know it could feel like that
And your face turned away and the day turned black
And the rain fell like a curtain
Ohit's my turn to begin
To forgive her anything
You'd forgive her anything
If you knew what I know
You'd forgive her anything
So where did all my pride go?
Ohohohohohohoh
Ohohohohohohoh
Ohohohohyou'd forgive her anything
If you knew what I know
You'd forgive her anything
So where did all my pride go?
