  • Elvis Costello Poor Napoleon Lyrics

           

    I can't lie on this bed anymore it burns my skin

    You can take the truthful things you've said to me

    And put them on the head of a pin



    Poor Napoleon



    You always look so disappointed when I take my stockings off

    Don't you know the facts of life, boy

    Don't you know what these things cost

    She was selling stolen kisses to travelling salesmen and minstrel singers

    You put a penny in the slot

    She called you her Magic Fingers



    Poor Napoleon



    I bet she isn't all that's advertised

    I bet that isn't all she fakes

    Just like that place where they take your spine

    And turn it into soapflakes



    so good night little school boy, you'd better learn some self control

    did you mess up your hairstyle, pour scorn in your begging bowl



    Bare wires from the socket to the bed where you embraced that girl

    Did you ever think there's far too many people in the world?

    One day they'll probably make a movie out of all of this

    There won't even have to be a murder just a slow dissolving kiss
