ELVIS COSTELLO lyrics : "I Almost Had A Weakness"

Thank you for the flowers
I threw them on the fire
And I burned the photographs that you had enclosed

GOD they were ugly children
So you're the little !@$( of that brother of mine
Trying to trick a poor old woman

'Til I almost had a weakness
Last week Cousin Florence
Bit your Uncle Joe

Hit him on the forehead with a knife and a fork
(She) said that he looked like the devil
Then she said... "pass the vinegar," I'm beginning to think

(That) I'm the only one who hasn't taken to the drinking of
it
Though I almost had a weakness


It pains me to mention
These delicate concerns

While I have to tolerate you family jewels
I really mustn't grumble
('Cause) when I die the cats and dogs will jump up and down

And you little swines will get nothing
Though I almost had a weakness
