She's Pulling Out The Pin Lyrics - Delivery Man - Elvis Costello

She's pulling out the pin 

That lets her hair fall down 

She shakes her head and 

It goes tumbling 

Her smile was out of place 

So she swept it off her face 

Let me find the words and say them 

Like some softly whispered Amen 

As she starts to pull away 

And the lights begin to dim 

Is she thinking of me 

Or is she thinking of him 

She's pulling out the pin

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

She's slipping off the hook 

Unbuttoning her dress 

There's just enough to make some man a mess 

She tears away the veil 

With her fingernails 

She came out high and kicking 

While the band played "Hey good lookin'" 

Do you hear something ticking? 

Did somebody tell her? 

You can really be redeemed 

Could she actually be? 

As desperate as she seems 

She's tearing at the seams 

She's going to extremes 

Nobody told her it was a sin 

So she's pulling out the pin 

Photos 

She's taping up her hands 

Just as a boxer will 

They started laughing 

But if looks could kill 

She'd take them down right now 

She's covering her mouth 

With someone or without 

There's nothing more to say 

This is her wedding day 

Full of shattered glass and mayhem 

Not one softly whispered amen 

She's knocking down some doors 

And the smoke begins to fill 

Where the world without her ends 

And the next one begins 

She's pulling out the pin
