Girls Talk

Girls Talk - Elvis Costello & The Attractions

Written by：Elvis Costello

There are some things you can't cover up with lipstick and powder

I thought I heard you mention my name can't you talk any louder

Don't come any closer don't come any nearer

My vision of you can't get any clearer

Oh I just want to hear girls talk

I got a loaded imagination being fired by girls talk

But I can't say the words you want to hear

I suppose you're going to have to play it by ear

Right here and now

Girls talk and they want to know how

Girls talk and they say its not allowed

Girls talk if they say that it's so

Don't you think that I know by now

That the word up on every ones lips

Stick that you're dedicated

Though you may not be an old fashioned girl

You're still going to get dated

Was it really murder

Were you just pretending

Lately I have heard you are the living end

Girls talk and they wanna know about her

Girls talk they wanna know if I care

Girls talk and they wanna know where
