Elvis Costello

Elvis Costello (born Declan Patrick MacManus, 25 August 1954) is an English singer-songwriter. He began his career as part of London's pub rock scene in the early 1970s and later became associated with the first wave of the British punk/New Wave movement of the mid-to-late 1970s. Steeped in word play, the vocabulary of Costello's lyrics is broader than that of most popular songs. His music has drawn on many diverse genres; one critic described him as a "pop encyclopaedia", able to "reinvent the past in his own image". more »

Quickly she came dressed up for fame 
Riding her perfume downstairs 
Make-up like glue, she danced round the room 
To the sound of her corduroy flares 

Let's go to town, taxis all round 
We could stop for a couple of beers 
He looks at it all stifles a yawn 
She tries not to look like she cares 

[Chorus:]
What do I do now? Are we going under? 
What did I do wrong? 
I thought we had it sorted out the other day 
Maybe I'm just stupid 
Can't we try again? 
No one told me it was raining (raining, raining) 

Can't face a club, they walk to a nearby pub 
Watch a couple of bands 
Draining the glass they walk home at last 
Reaching for each others hands 

Nothing is said he goes to bed 
Dreaming of her on his own 
She stays up all week, watching him sleep 
Scared that she'll wake up alone 

[Chorus]

Oh I'll miss you every day of your life 
Oh you'll feel it too, you're not that strong 
You know I'm on to you 
Oh I'll miss you every day of your life 
Maybe when you're dead 
I'll get some rest from holding onto you (holding onto you) 

What do I do now? Are we going under? 
What did I do wrong? 
Thought we had it sorted 
Is there someone else? Am I too familiar? 
Was it when I said I wanted to have children? 

Tore up all your photos, didn't feel too clever 
Spent the whole of Sunday sticking you together 
Now I'd like to call but I feel too awkward 
Some things need explaining 
No one told me it was raining (raining, raining...)
