Charm School

By Elvis Costello

>From the Album: Punch the Clock

define:

  = XX0044

  = X02244

Intro

 Men made out of monkeys

 Men made into mice

 Happy days are here again

 And all the drinks half price

 A girl with a trick and a man with a calling

 Trying to make a living out of your downfalling

Chorus

 TRYING TO MAKE A LIVING out of anything at all

 Didn't they teach you anything except how to be cruel

 In that charm school

 You and I as lovers

 Were nothing but a farce

 TRYING TO MAKE A SILK PURSE

 OUT OF A SOW'S ARSE

 Saying 'Why don't you watch me'

 Hardly speaking SOTTO VOCE

(chorus)

 I've got a notion

I've got an angle

 Take your dreams and promises

And put them through the mangle

 They say it's hell to finance too

 And I just want to romance you

 In this perpetual nightclub

 I'll be yours eternal

 Though the hours are long

 And the noise infernal

 JUST ONE SHAMEFUL ACT OR SOMETIMES TWO

 WE MAKE BELIEVE WE'RE MAKING DO

(chorus)
