Elvis Costello & The Attractions - Watch Your Step Lyrics

Don't say a word, don't say anything
Don't say a word, I'm not even listening
I read in the papers about their escape
There've been two bit of kids from a bunch of sour grapes
You better watch your step

Watch who's knocking on your front door
Now you know that they're watching
What are you waiting for, think you're young and original
Get out before they get to watch your step

Every day is full of fun and family spies
They're making heroes out of fall guys
They say it's good for business
From Singapore to Widnes you better watch your step

Broken noses hung up on the wall
Back slapping drinkers cheer the heavy weight brawl
So, punch drunk they don't understand at all
You better watch your step

Every night go out full of carnival desires
End up in the closing time choirs
When you're kicking in the car chrome

And you're drinking down the eau de cologne
And you're spitting out the Kodachrome
You better watch your step

Bye, I send you all my regards, you're so tough, you're so hard
Listen to the hammers falling in the breaker's yard
You better watch your step, you better watch your step
Ooh, watch your step
