Elvis Costello - Accidents Will HappenLyrics

Oh, I just don't know where to begin Love doesn't wait forever It's now or never But she keeps 'em hangin' on You said you're so alone She says she can't go home without a chaperon Accidents will happen They only hit and run You used to be a victim now you're not the only one Accidents will happen They only hit and run I don't want to hear it cause I know what I've done There's so many fish in the sea That only rise up on the sweat and smoke of mercury But they keep you hangin' on They say you're so young Your mind is made up but your mouth is undone Accidents will happen They only hit and run You used to be a victim now you're not the only one Accidents will happen They only hit and run I don't want to hear it cause I know what I've done It's the damage that we do we never know It's the words that we don't say that scare me so There's so many people to see So many people to hangin' on and add to your collection But they keep you hangin' on Until you well hung Your mouth is make up but your mind is undone Accidents will happen They're only hit and run You used to be a victim now you're not the only one Accidents will happen They only hit and run I don't want to hear it cause I know what it I know what it I know what it done I know (x4)
