Go Away - Elvis Costello




Are we rolling?

One, two, one, two, three, four



Here in my little spy movie

With my garter and dagger

And my gag and my cuff

And my gunslinger swagger



You used to be my hand-painted villain

You used to be so thrilling



It's a switch that you're flicking

A fuse you're always tripping

A button that you're pressing

A number that you're pushing



You're always delaying

Denying

And betraying

Why don't you come back, baby?

Why don't you go away?



Go Away, Go Away

Why don't you go away?

Why don't you come back, baby?

Why don't you go away?



Budapest intrigue

Three hours of black and white

Squinting at subtitles

Through a telescopic sight



Hungarian melody

Repeating endlessly

Is this the end I see?

Approaching in front of me



A switch that you're flicking

A fuse you're always tripping

A button that you're pressing

A number that you're pushing

You're always delaying

Denying

Or betraying

Why don't you come back, baby?

Why don't you go away?



Go Away, Go Away

Why don't you go away?

Why don't you come back, baby?

Why don't you go away?



In this hysterical epic

Secret passage of the palace

Powder from a hollow ring

Into the poisonous chalice



Unfrocked fondler

In a half moonlit gondola

Pampered hog in a ringlet wig

Gamboled a merry jig



You're always pursuing

But she won't need possessing

Just undoing and undressing

Please don't stop confessing



You're always delaying

Denying

Or betraying

Why don't you come back, baby?

Why don't you go away?



Go Away, Go Away

Why don't you go away?

Why don't you come back, baby?

Why don't you go away?



In my mystery caper

As I lower my lamp

On a fey little gunsel

Who dreamed of drilling that vamp



I'm walking the shade

Of this silent parade

With my pepper and mace

And my heartbroken face



Rainy railway station

Drowns out a tearful parting

Last canister rolling

On our little melodrama



Is a one-horse opera

A screwball comedy

Mistaken identity

Well, who do you want to be?



A switch that you're flicking

A fuse you're always tripping

A button that you're pressing

A number that you're pushing



You're always delaying

Denying

Or betraying

Why don't you come back, baby?

Why don't you go away?



Go Away, Go Away

Why don't you go away?

Why don't you come back, baby?

Why don't you go away?



Hey hey

Why don't you

Go away

Why don't you go away?
