Costello Lyrics - Singles - Straylight Run

Taking up my time again, the one thing I can't stand 

Coffee and the conversation never ends 

When all I really need to find 

Is one short clever line 

To pinpoint my disgust 

It's always just too much or not enough 

And I'm overwhelmed 

So, I'll keep it simple for obvious reasons 

And I'll say what I should and just hope you believe me 

But, it never gets easier 

Oh, it never gets easier 

Oh, no, no 

Singing to myself again 

Can't hear a word you've said 

The syllables, the sounds just are in sentences 

And all I really wanna do is tear straight into you 

Explode, unload a hail of insults 

'Til you finally get it 

I'm sick to death 

But, I'll keep it simple for obvious reasons 

And I'll say what I should and just hope you believe me 

But, it never gets easier 

No, it never gets easier 

Oh, no, no 

A strong distaste for confrontation 

Leaves no room for self-expression 

Such a strain to remain so docile 

Oh, don't you know it all takes its toll 

I'll keep it simple for obvious reasons 

And I'll say what I should and just hope you believe me 

But, it never gets easier 

No, it never gets easier 

Oh, it never gets easier 

Well, it never gets easier 

No, it never gets easier 

Oh, it never gets easier 

(Tear straight into you)
