Alison (Live At Hollywood High, 1978) - Elvis Costello & The Attractions

Oh it's so funny to be seeing you after so long girl

And with the way you look i understand

That you are not impressed

But i heard you let that little friend of mine

Take off your party dress

I'm not going to get too sentimental

Like those other sticky valentines

'Cause i don't know if you've been loving somebody

I only know it isn't mine

Alison i know this world is killing you

Oh alison my aim is true

Well i see you've got a husband now

Did he leave your pretty fingers lying

In the wedding cake

You used to hold him right in your hand

I'll bet he took all he could take

Sometimes i wish that i could stop you from talking

When i hear the silly things that you say

I think somebody better put out the big light

Cause i can't stand to see you this way

Alison i know this world is killing you

Oh alison my aim is true

My aim is true

My aim is true

My aim is true

My aim is true
