ELVIS COSTELLO lyrics : "Mr. Feathers"

They looked at her this way ever since she was a girl
Mr. Feathers, Mr. Feathers
The echo in every smile that would curl into a leer

Oh my dear, Mr. Feathers is near

The counter is falling

Something is spoiling
It's really appalling
You pleased and you promised

You never saw it through
Nobody knows the damage that we do
Do you carry it with you?


She passed him out in the street
He suddenly seemed so frail

As her fast heart beat
She should kick him anyway
Sharpen her nails...

For eyes that strayed where hands should never stray

She thought she was wanton ever since she was a girl

Mr. Feathers, Mr. Feathers
The kindness in every smile that would curl into a sneer
Oh my dear, Mr. Feathers is near


Her lover is calling
Something is spoiling

It's really appalling

You pleased and you promised

You never saw it through
Nobody knows the damage that we do
The damage that we do
