Elvis Costello & The Attractions - Alison (soundcheck) lyrics

Oh, it's so funny to be seein' you after so long, girl And with the way you look I understand that you are not impressed But I heard you let that little friend of mine Take off your party dress I'm not gonna get too sentimental Like those other sticky Valentines 'Cause I don't know if you are lovin' somebody I only know it isn't mine Alison I know this world is k**in' you Oh, Alison My aim is true Well, I see you've got a husband now Did you leave your pretty fingers lying in the wedding cake? You used to hold him right in your hand I bet it took all he could take Sometimes I wish that I could stop you from talkin' When I hear the silly things that you say I think somebody better put out the big light 'Cause I can't stand to see you this way Alison I know this world is k**ing you Oh, Alison My aim is true My aim is true My aim is true My aim is true My aim is true My aim is true My aim is true My aim is true My aim is true My aim is true My aim is true My aim is true
