Girls Talk

Elvis Costello

(Girls talk)

There are some things you can't cover up with lipstick and powder
Thought I heard you mention my name
Can't you talk any louder?

Don't come any closer, don't come any nearer
My vision of you can't get any clearer

Oh, I just wanna hear girls talk

Got a loaded imagination being fired by girls' talk
It's a more or less situation inspired by girls' talk

But I can't say (can't say) the words you wanna hear (wanna hear)
I suppose we're gonna have to play it by ear
Right here and now

Girls talk
And they wanna know how
Girls talk
And they say it's not allowed
Girls talk
If they say that it's so, don't you think that I'd know by now?

Got the word upon everyone's lipstick
That you're getting faded
You may not be an old fashioned girl
But you're gonna get dated

Was it really murder?
Were you just pretending?
Lately, I have heard you are the living end

Girls talk
And they wanna know how
Girls talk
And they say it's not allowed
Girls talk
And they wanna know how
If they say that it's so, don't you think that I'd know by now?

But I can't say the words you wanna hear
I suppose you're gonna have to play it by ear
(By ear)

There are some things you can't cover up with lipstick and powder
But I heard you mention my name
Can't you talk any louder?

Don't come any closer, don't come any nearer
My vision of you can't come any clearer

Girls talk
And they wanna know how
Girls talk
And they say it's not allowed
Girls talk
And they think they know how
Girls talk

Girls talk
Girls talk
Girls talk
Girls talk
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Girls talk
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
