Fish n Chip Paper Lyrics by Elvis Costello

Fish n Chip Paper Lyrics

    When sunday morning dandruff turns out to be confetti
    And the cost of living in sin would make a poor man out of paul getty
    The girl in your dreams would have you up on an under age charge
    And the man of the moment is the lifer at large

    Chorus:
    If you've got something to hide, if you've got something to sell
    If you've got somebody's pride she might kiss and tell
    Or wind up with a fight fan in the hammersmith hotel
    You better speak up now if you want your piece
    You better speak up now
    It won't mean a thing later
    Yesterday's news is tomorrow's fish and chip paper

    Your girl says she's leaving and this time she really means it
    You can just look at the pictures, you don't actually have to read it
    Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
    There's a man in the launderette and he's looking through your underwear
    For clues
    And the milkman is working through the news of the screws

    He says...
    Chorus
