Watch Your Step - Elvis Costello & The Attractions

Written by：Elvis Costello

Don't say a word

Don't say anything

Don't say a word

I'm not even listening

I read in the paper about their escape

They're just two bitter kids with a bunch of sour grapes

You better watch your step

Watch who's knocking on your front door

Now you know that they're watching

What are you waiting for

Think you're young and original

Get out before

They get to watch your step

Ev'ry day is full of fun

And family spice

They're making heroes out of fall guys

They say it's good for business

From Singapore to Widnes

You better watch your step

Broken noses hung up on the wall

Back slapping drinkers cheer the heavy weight brawl

So punch drunk they don't understand at all

You better watch your step

Ev'ry night

Go out full of carnal desires

End up in the closing time choirs

When you're kicking in the cot room

And you're drinking down the eau de cologne

And you're spitting out the kodachrome

You better watch your step

Bye

I send you all my regards

You're so tough

You're so hard

Listen to the hammers falling in the breaker's yard

You better watch your step

You better watch your step

Ooh watch your step
