Lyric The Beat - Elvis Costello

Lyric Song The Beat: We re all going on a summer holiday
Vigilante s coming out to follow me
Heard somebody say they re out to collar me
Anybody wanna swallow me
It takes two to tumble It takes two to tango
Speak up; don t mumble if you re in the combo
On the beaton the beat
Till a man comes along and he says
Have you been a good boynever played with your toy
Though you never enjoysuch pleasure to employ
See your friends in the state their in
See your friends getting under their skin
See your friends getting taken in
Wellif you only knew the things you do to me
I d do anything to confuse the enemy
There s only one thing wrong with you befriending me
Take it easy I think you re bending me
I ve been a bad boy with the standard leader
My neighbor s revving up his Vauxhall Viva
On the beaton the upbeat
Till a man comes along and he says
Have you been a good boynever played with your toy
Though you never enjoysuch pleasure to employ
See your friends walking down the street
See your friends never quite complete
See your friends getting under their feet
OhI don t want to disease you
but I m no good with machinery
OhI don t wanna freeze you
Stop looking at the scen ry
I keep thinking about your mother
OhI don t wanna lick them
I don t wanna be a lover
I just wanna be your victim
I don t go out much at night
I don t go out much at all
Did you think you were the only one
who was waiting for a call
On the beaton the upbeat
Till a man comes along and he says
Have you been a good boynever played with your toy
Though you never enjoysuch pleasure to employ
See your friends treat me like a stranger
See your friends despite all the arrangements
See your friends Nothing here has changed
Just the beat
