Motel Matches
Elvis Costello
[Verse 1] Somewhere in the distance I can hear „Who Shot Sam?" This is my conviction that I am an innocent man Though you say I’m unkind I’m being as nice as I can [Chorus] Boys everywherefumbling with the catches I struck lucky with motel matches Falling for you without a second look Falling out of your open pocketbook Giving you away like motel matches [Instrumental] / [Verse 2] I wake with the siren in an Emergency Though your mind is full of love In your eyes there is a vacancy And you know what I’ll do When the light outside changes from red to blue [Chorus] Boys everywherefumbling with the catches I struck lucky with motel matches Falling for you without a second look Falling out of your open pocketbook Giving you away like motel matches [Instrumental] / Giving you away like motel matches / Giving you away like motel matches
