Elvis Costello - Sour Milk Cow Blues

You like coffee and you like tea
Much more than you like me
And everybody says watch out yeah
For the sour milk cow blues
You like your coffee just a little too sweet
Without your sugar life is incomplete
And everybody says watch out yeah
For the sour milk cow blues
I think about you everyday
Something about you is not the same
Something about the things you say
Sounds like a different woman
with a different name
Sour milk cow blues sour milk cow blues
You wear a different size and style of shoe
I think that someone must be poisoning you
To replace you with a living double
Get out of my life right now and
save them all of the trouble
They changed your complexion
and your personality
Somebody's putting ideas in your head
They took the girl of my dreams
and left you here instead
Sour milk cow blues sour milk cow blues
You take your place in this parade of pleas
You dial a number and they offer relief
All alone with just your own device
They give you something and it isn't advice
To break the hearts of a million listeners
Start out as lovers
and you end up as prisoners
Somebody's suffering
from the things that you do
Somebody's suffering
but you're glad it isn't you
Put your fingertips up to the screen
Repeat after me wake at the count of three
Now I don't know which is worse
What they're doing to you or
what you're doing to me
Sour milk cow blues sour milk cow blues
Sour milk cow blues sour milk cow blues
You like coffee and you like tea
Much more than you like me
And everybody says watch out yeah
For the sour milk cow blues
You like your coffee just a little too sweet
Without your sugar life is incomplete
And everybody says watch out yeah
For the sour milk cow blues
I think about you everyday
Something about you is not the same
Something about the things you say
Sounds like a different woman
with a different name
Sour milk cow blues sour milk cow blues
You wear a different size and style of shoe
I think that someone must be poisoning you
To replace you with a living double
Get out of my life right now and

They changed your complexion

They took the girl of my dreams
and left you here instead
