Wednesday Week Lyrics - Rock & Roll Music - Elvis Costello

The movies save on conversation 

And the TV saves on sight 

We met in a head-on collision 

So I would say our chances would be slight 

You can lead and I will follow 

See us dancing cheek to cheek 

You'll remember me tomorrow 

But you won't give a damn by Wednesday week 

Say you love me until you do so 

Joso singing just like Caruso 

Three little words roll off your tongue 

Somehow your face just doesn't look so young

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

You say you want to strike a bargain 

Now, there is no need to speak 

You say you want to learn the jargon 

But you won't give a damn by Wednesday week 

You start acting like a zombie 

Someone wants your piece of cake 

You think you want to jump upon me 

But you won't give a damn by Wednesday week 

Oh, what a letdown when the battle was finally won 

One little breakdown and then it was over and done 

I wish I had your confidence, it's love and not coincidence 

Do you say these words to everyone? 

Photos 

You're fantastic, you're terrific 

Your excellence is almost scientific 

You took the words out of my mouth 

You put the tongue into my cheek 

But I'd better lose my memory
