Elvis Costello And The Attractions - Beaten To The Punch

[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]

Now you find the younger guys are putting up resistance

And you’re almost beaten to the punch

You better get out now because you’ll never go the distance

And you’re almost beaten to the punch

You’ll find a girl and you’ll promise her anything

Even a wedding ring

Almost beaten to the punch

You are a splendid butterfly
It is your wings that make you beautiful
And I could make you fly away
But I could never make you stay
You said you were in love with me
Both of us know that that’s impossible
And I could make you rue the day
But I could never make you stay

Not for all the tea in China
Not if I could sing like a bird
Not for all North Carolina
Not for all my little words
Not if I could write for you
The sweetest song you ever heard
It doesn’t matter what I’ll do
Not for all my little words

Now that you’ve made me want to die
You tell me that you’re unboyfriendable
And I could make you pay and pay
But I could never make you stay

Trying to be so bad is bad enough
Don’t make me laugh by talking tough
Don’t put your heart out on your sleeve
When your remarks are off the cuff
