Party Girl

Elvis Costello

Transposer:

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 up high but I’ve Seen the hungry look in their eyes They’d settle for anything in disguise of love Seen the party girls look me over 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 BREAK: Oh you’ll never be the guilty party girl 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 your 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) /

La chanson évoque une relation complexe entre deux personnes, où l'un des protagonistes remet en question les choix de vie de l'autre. Il exprime une sorte de fascination mêlée d'inquiétude face à la superficialité d'un monde de fêtes et de plaisirs éphémères. Malgré cette prise de conscience, il est toujours attiré par la personne, ressentant une tension entre le désir d'évasion et la volonté de ne pas se perdre. Le ton ambivalent est renforcé par la mention des "party girls", symbolisant des femmes qui semblent chercher l'amour, mais qui se contentent de faux semblants. Le morceau reflète une lutte intérieure où le protagoniste ne veut pas étouffer l'autre, tout en étant conscient de la fragilité de leur connexion.
