Costello, Elvis - Party Girl Lyrics
They say you're nothing but a party girl
Just like a million more all over the world
I know I shouldn't be raising my hopes so high
But I have seen the hungry look in their eyes
They'd settle for anything in disguise of love
Seen 'em leaving when the party's over
They can't touch me now
You say you don't mind
We're so hard to find
I could give you anything but time
Give it just one more try
Give it a chance
Starts like fascination
Ends up like a trance
Maybe someday we can go hiding from this world
Maybe I'll never get over the change in style
But I don't want to lock you up and say you're mine
Don't want to lose you or say goodbye
I'm the guilty party and I want my slice
But I know you've got me and I'm in a grip-like vise.
They can't touch me now
You say you don't mind
We're so hard to find
I could give you anything
I would give you anything
I can give you anything but time
Give you anything but time [Repeats]

Oh Declan, why'd you end the Attractions. Suited you to a T.
All about the Vox Continental
Bruce Thomas was and still is top drawer
And that's what we call Red pill
Great song. The closing owes a little to Beatles, "You Never Give Me Your Money".
Sorry you pig ....no
written for Alexandria Leonard
Bebe Buell actually
all about the bass
Attractions are one of the best Rock bands in the business !! Listen to that piano and bass line! Freakin awesome!!
Thanks to Rolling Stone mag found him 40 years ago.
The ending at 2:33 recalls the end of The Beatles "You Never Give Me Your Money" off the Abbey Road album

Don't want to lock you up and say your mind don't want to lose you or say goodbye haven't we all been there
Correction: Don't want to lock you up and say *you're mine*
"But I have seen the hungry look in their eyes - they'd settle for anything in disguise of love" Really this is a top-to-bottom lyrical masterpiece. Great basswork from Bruce Thomas as well
Red pill
The best bass I've ever heard.
