Everyday I Write The Book (In the Style of "Elvis Costello") [Karaoke Version]

Everyday I Write The Book (In the Style of "Elvis Costello"|Karaoke Version) - The Karaoke Channel

Yeah don't tell me you don't know what love is

When you're old enough to know better

When you find strange hands in your sweater

When your dreamboat turns out to be a footnote

I'm a man with a mission in two or three editions

And I'm giving you a longing look

Everyday everyday everyday everyday everyday

Everyday I write the book

Chapter one we didn't really get along

Chapter two I think I fell in love with you

You said you'd stand by me

in the middle of chapter three

But you were up to your old tricks in

Chapters four five and six

And I'm giving you a longing look

Everyday everyday everyday everyday everyday

Everyday I write the book

The way you walk the way

you talk and try to kiss me

And laugh in four or five paragraphs

All your compliments and your cutting remarks

Are captured here in my quotation marks

I'm giving you a longing look

Everyday everyday everyday everyday everyday

Everyday I write the book

Everyday I write the book

Don't tell me you don't know the difference

Between a lover and a fighter

With my pen and my electric typewriter

Even in a perfect world where everyone was equal

I'd still own the film rights

and be working on the sequel

I'm giving you a longing look

Everyday everyday everyday everyday everyday

Everyday I write the book

Everyday everyday everyday

Everyday I write the book

Everyday everyday everyday

Everyday I write the book yeah

Everyday everyday everyday

Everyday I write the book

Everyday everyday

Everyday I write the book

Everyday everyday

Everyday I write the book

Everyday everyday

Everyday I write the book

Everyday everyday

Everyday I write the book

And I'm giving you a longing look

Everyday I write the book

And I'm giving you a longing look

Everyday I write the book

Everyday everyday

Everyday everyday

Everyday everyday

Everyday everyday
