Elvis Costello & the Attractions

The Attractions were an English backing band for the English new wave musician Elvis Costello between 1977 and 1986, and again from 1994 to 1996. They consisted of Steve Nieve, Bruce Thomas, and Pete Thomas. They also released one album as an independent entity, without Costello, in 1980. more »

Daddy's best girl in the world is not supposed to have a boyfriend
But she's never wanted at home
Other girls are allowed to wear their makeup
She sneaks out her lipstick, powder, and comb
She surrounds his name with hearts and flowers
Talks on the telephone for hours and hours
With the bird in his hand
And two on a string
The words of love have an imitation ring

You little fool, little fool, little fool
I suppose that you're going to stay all night
You little fool, little fool, little fool
Don't look at me that way, you know it isn't right
You little fool, little fool, little fool
You little fool, little fool, little fool
You little fool, little fool, little fool

They say no news is good news
The little girl wants information
Mother just gives her some pills to choose
And says go and use your imagination

Daddy's best girl in the world says, "just look what I have got"
As she sits beside him on the high stool
With his arm around her neck, snowball in one hand
And the other full of imitation jewels
She fingers a string of pearls
An imitation but he'll never know it
Imitation lashes flutter above
Looking for an imitation of love

You little fool, little fool, little fool
I suppose that you're going to stay all night
You little fool, little fool, little fool
Don't look at me that way, you know it isn't right
You little fool, little fool, little fool
You little fool, little fool, little fool
You little fool, little fool, little fool
