13 Steps Lead Down Lyrics


When nobody knows she puts on secret clothes
And lies in the meadow with her hands tied behind her back
I won't refuse if you know how to use it
Just stop playing that ugly drug musicThirteen steps lead down
Thirteen steps lead down
There's commoners and kings
And everyone's a prisoner of paper and glueAnd a decent pair of scissors
So tonight, I'm drinking to your health
Because I just can't stand myselfThirteen steps lead down
Thirteen steps lead down
Thirteen steps lead down
Thirteen steps lead down
She stands and fails
On fashion fingernails
Her lovers have her walking 'round
On instruments of tortureAnd one of them is poisonous
The other is a thief, they say
So what one could give to her

The other cannot take awayWhen nobody knows she puts on secret clothes
And lies in her splendor for a picture opportunity
Cover up that bruise, put on patent leather shoes
Just stop playing that bad mood musicThirteen steps lead down
Thirteen steps lead down
There's commoners and kings
And everyone's a prisoner of paper and glue
And a decent pair of scissors
So tonight I'm drinking to your health
Because I just can't stand myselfThirteen steps lead down
Thirteen steps lead down
Thirteen steps lead down
Thirteen steps lead down

Elvis Costello & The Attractions was the band formed by Elvis Costello in 1977. It comprised Steve Nieve (ne Nason) on keyboards, Pete Thomas on drums and Bruce Thomas (no relation) on bass. He recorded and toured solidly with them until 1984, when he disbanded them to pursue solo projects. He reconvened the band for one-off albums and tours over the following decade; in particular from 1994 through 1996.
