Lyrics
Elvis Costello
©2005 Chris Carter
Verse 1 I wish that I could meet a special girl named Allison Because she?s oh so sweet and she was his inspiration
Then I say if your life, has gone a little insane
Just take his advice, blame it all on Cain
Chorus I wish that I could be Elvis Costello or one of his friends
But I?m just stuck in this same old world once again
Verse 2 He?s got a golden voice and he?s has all the skills
But if you hear my noise all you will get are chills
Oh my God I swear I?ve wandered around without
a clue
But all the angels want to wear his bright red shoes
Chorus I wish that I could be Elvis Costello or one of his friends
But I?m just stuck in this same old world once again
