[Lyric] Girls Talk alternate version (Elvis Costello)

There are some things you can't cover up with lipstick and powder
Thought I heard you mention my name
Can't you talk any louder?

Don't come any closer, don't come any nearer
My vision of you can't get any clearer

Oh, I just wanna hear girls talk
I got a loaded imagination being fired by girls' talk

But I can't say the words you wanna hear
I suppose we're gonna have to play it by ear
Right here and now

Girls talk and they wanna know how
Girls talk and they say it's not allowed
Girls talk

If they say that it's so, don't you think that I'd know by now
That the word upon everyone's lipstick that you're dedicated
You may not be an old fashioned girl, you're still gonna get dated
Was it really murder?
Were you just pretending?
Lately I have heard you are the living end

Talk and they wanna know where
Girls talk, wanna know about her
Girls talk, they wanna know if I care
Girls talk, oh yeah, yeah, yeah
Whoo!
