Girls Talk - Elvis Costello, The Attractions

There are some things you can’t cover up with lipstick and powder

Thought i heard you mention my name can’t you talk any louder

Don’t come any closer don’t come any nearer

My vision of you can’t come any clearer

Oh i just wanna hear girls talk

Got a loaded imagination being fired by girls talk

Its a more or less situation inspired by girls talk

But i can’t say the words you wanna hear

I suppose you’re gonna have to play it by ear right here

And i girls talk

They wanna know how girls talk

They say it’s not allowed girls talk

They say that it’s so don’t they think that i know by now

But the word word upon everyones lips took a joke and it faded

You may not be an old fashioned girl but you’re gonna get dated

Was it really murder were you just pretending

Baby ive heard you are the living end

Girls talk they wanna know how girls talk

They say it’s not allowed girls talk

They think they know how girls talk

They say that it’s so don’t they think that i know by now

But i can’t say the words you wanna hear

I suppose you’re gonna have to play it by ear

There are some things you can’t conver up with lipstick and powder

Thought i heard you mention my name can’t you talk any louder

Was it really murder were you just pretending

Lately ive heard you are the living end

Girls talk they wanna know how girls talk

They say it’s not allowed girls talk

They think they know how girls talk

Girls talk girls talk

Yeah yeah yeah yeah girls talk

Yeah yeah yeah yeah girls talk

Yeah yeah yeah yeah girls talk

Yeah yeah yeah yeah girls talk
