Elvis Costello - Black Sails In The Sunset Lyrics

Vain boys are gonna have to swallow their pride this time 
So let the punishment fit the crime 
It's under the table 
Under your skin 
Into the cable 
Is this the death of the glory you're in? 
Chorus: 
Black sails in the sunset 
White noise going yakety-yak 
All the money in the world will never bring your body back 
Is it some mysterious dance nobody can do? 
Thought I knew all the steps quite clearly 
I don't have a clue 
Oooh 

You're Cinderella with a ball and chain 
And the shoe seems to fit you 
You tell the truth sometimes but 
You wouldn't know it if it hit you 
Is this some new trick 
Wired up in your head? 
Do you make me sick 
Or was I just force fed? 

Chorus
