Elvis Costello & The Roots – (She Might Be A) GRENADE

Elvis Costello & The Roots – (She Might Be A) GRENADE Lyrics

Artist: Elvis Costello & The Roots
Song: (She Might Be A) GRENADE

She’s pulling out the pin
That lets her hair fall down
She’s pulling out the pin
She shakes her head

And it goes tumbling
Her smile was out of place
So she swept it off her face
Let me find the words and say them

Like some softly whispered “Amen”
But she starts to pull away
And the lights begin to dim
Is she thinking of me?

Or is she thinking of him?
She’s pulling out the pin…
She’s slipping off the hook
Unbuttoning her dress

She’s slipping off the hook
There’s just enough to make some man a mess
She tears away the veil
With her fingernails

She came out high and kicking
While the band played “Hey, Good Looking”
Do you hear something ticking?
Did somebody tell her she could really be redeemed?

And could she actually be as desperate as she seems?
She’s tearing at the seams
She’s going to extremes
Nobody told her it was a sin

So she’s pulling out the pin
She’s taping up her hands just like a boxer will
And they started laughing
But if looks could kill

She’d take them down right now
She’s covering her mouth
With some unholy vow
There’s nothing more to say

This is her wedding day
Full of shattered glass and mayhem
Not some softly whispered “Amen”
While the shock announcement dawns

And the smoke begins to thin
Where the world without ends
And the next one begins
She’s pulling out the pin

She’s pulling out the pin
She’s pulling out the pin
She’s pulling out the pin
