Miss Mary Lyrics - Elvis Costello

Angels announce with trumpets 

Crown you with jewels and stars 

Hercules lives next door to Venus and mars 

Beside your pretty blue shoulder 

Something may trouble Gerome 

Now that you're up with your friends 

I know you'll never come home 

Singing so babe, I know this song 

Miss Mary I'm nothing without you 

Everything I've done is wrong 

Miss Mary I try not to doubt you 

I walk in their brilliant parade 

Banish the primitive gloom 

Now I know where I can find you 

Hung up in some Frenchman's room

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

Pitiful Magdalena for all to see 

Must have been beautiful 

So just show a little mercy to me 

Hey babe, I sing this song 

Miss Mary I'm nothing without you 

Everything I've done is wrong 

Miss Mary I try not to doubt you 

There at the foot of your staircase 

I stood to take in the scene all the ashes of roses 

The veined steps of marble 

Purple, gold and green oh I wish you were my queen 

They only want to possess you 

Lock you away in a vault such a heavenly vision 

And dress you up in blue I guess it's not their fault 

I know this song 

Miss Mary I'm nothing without you 

Everything I've done is wrong 

Miss Mary I try not to doubt you
