Kirsty MacColl Lyrics
"There's A Guy Works Down The Chip Shop Swears He's Elvis"

Oh darling, why'd you talk so fast?

Another evening just flew past tonight

And now the daybreak's coming in

And I can't win and it ain't right

You tell me all you've done and seen

And all the places you have been without me

Well, I don't really want to know

But I'll stay quiet and then I'll go

And you won't have no cause to think about me

There's a guy works down the chip shop swears he's Elvis

Just like you swore to me that you'd be true

There's a guy works down the chip shop swears he's Elvis

But he's a liar and I'm not sure about you

Oh darling, you're so popular

You were the best thing new in Hicksville

With your mohair suits and foreign shoes

News is you changed your pick-up for a Seville

And now I'm lying here alone

'Cause you're out there on the phone

To some star in New York

I can hear you laughing now

And I can't help feeling that somehow

You don't mean anything you say at all

There's a guy works down the chip shop swears he's Elvis

Just like you swore to me that you'd be true

There's a guy works down the chip shop swears he's Elvis

But he's a liar and I'm not sure about you

There's a guy works down the chip shop swears he's Elvis

Just like you swore to me that you'd be true

There's a guy works down the chip shop swears he's Elvis

But he's a liar and I'm not sure about you

I said he's a liar and I'm not sure about you

I said he's a liar and I'm not sure about you

He's a liar and I'm not sure about you
