There’s a Guy Works Down the Chip Shop Swears He’s Elvis (BBC Session) Kirsty MacColl

Oh darling why’d you talk so fast
Another evening just flew past tonight
And now the daybreak’s coming in
And I can’t win and it ain’t right
You tell me all you’ve done and seen
And all the places you have been without me
Well I don’t really want to know
But I’ll stay quiet and then I’ll go
And you won’t have no cause to think about me

There’s a guy works down the chip shop swears he’s Elvis
Just like you swore to me that you’d be true
There’s a guy works down the chip shop swears he’s Elvis
But he’s a liar and I’m not sure about you

Oh darling you’re so popular
You were the bеst thing new in Hicksville …
With your mohair suits and foreign shoеs
News is you changed your Pick-up for a Seville
And now I’m lying here alone
‘Cause you’re out there on the phone
To some star in New York
I can hear you laughing now and
I can’t help feeling that somehow
You don’t mean anything you say at all
