Pardon Me, Madam, My Name Is Eve Lyrics


Pardon me, madam, my name is Eve
I think it's time for you to leave
I don't believe that we have met
That's one thing you would not forgetIn another time or life
When I was his only wife
When I was his only bride
Before I was torn out from his sideIn the orchard apples are withering
In the shadows something is slithering
So go along there if you must
And try to do as I suggest
He's just a gathering of dustAnd if he can't recall my name
Tell him to take his time, it's worth recovering
Look at me and what I'm covered in
I'm covered in shameI came back looking for a mad man
Wandered everywhere and then
Stood outside and gazed upon
A beautiful garden, a shimmering pondSee the sunlight on the leaves that dapple
Did you see my little teeth marks on the apple?

Don't close the door on the hand I'm offering
There is always someone on the outside doing all of the sufferingIn the orchard, apples are withering
In the shadows, something is slithering
But in another time or life
When I was his only wife
When I was his only bride
Before I was torn outBefore I was torn out
Before I was torn out
From his sidePardon me, madam, my name is Eve
Pardon me, madam, my name is Eve
I think it's time for one of us to leave

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

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.
