Elvis Costello - Party Girl Lyrics

They say you're nothin' but a party girl
Just like a million more all over the world
I know I shouldn't be raising my hopes so high

But I have 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

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 a 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 time, give you anything but time
Give you anything but time, give you anything but time
Ooh, give you anything but time, give you anything but time
Give you anything but time
