Accidents Will Happen - Elvis Costello



Oh I just don't know where to begin

Though he says he'll wait forever

It's now or never

But she keeps him hanging on

The silly champion

She says she can't go home

Without a chaperone



Accidents will happen

We only hit and run

He used to be your victim

Now you're not the only one



Accidents will happen

We only hit and run

I don't want to hear it

'Cause I know what I've done



There's so many fish in the sea

That only rise up in the sweat and smoke like mercury

But they keep you hanging on

They say you're so young

Your mind is made up but your mouth is undone



(Chorus)



And it's the damage that we do

And never know

It's the words that we don't say

That scare me so



There's so many people to see

So many people you can check up on

And add to your collection

But they keep you hanging on

Until you're well hung

Your mouth is made up but your mind is undone



(Chorus)



I know, I know, (repeat)
