Clubland
Elvis Costello & the Attractions
Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
With a handful of backhanders and a bevy of beauty Going off-limits, going off duty Going off the rails, going off with booty They tell tales of fiction found on all the criminal types Lead to a higher-ranking man or a face with thin red stripes The boys next door The mums and dads New-weds and nearly-deads Have you ever been had in clubland? In clubland There's a piece in someone's pocket to do the dirty work You've come to shoot the pony, they've come to do the jerk They leave him halfway to paradise, they leave you halfway to bliss The ladies' invitation never seemed like this The boys next door The mums and dads New-weds and nearly-deads Have you ever been had in clubland? In clubland The long arm of the law slides up the outskirts of town Meanwhile in clubland they are ready to pull them down Hey The right to work is traded in for the right to refuse admission Don't pass out now, there's no refund, did you find out what you were missing? The crowd is taking forty winks minus ten percent You barely get required sleep to go lingering with contemptment Thursday to Saturday Money's gone already Some things come in common these days Your hands and work aren't steady The boys next door The mums and dads New-weds and nearly-deads Have you ever been had in clubland? In clubland In clubland In clubland, he-e-y
Struggling with Clubland? Become a better singer in 30 days with these videos!
