Needle Time

Elvis Costello

[Verse 1]
I wish that I didn't hate you, least not as much as I do
And squander all my contempt for a little nothing like you
Liars like you are ten-a-penny
Women would slap you, if you knew any
Sometimes I feel just like committing a crime

[Verse 2]
I've got this suitcase of phony wisdom to dispense
These twenty-seven or so years, ah you'd think I'd made them some cents
Now they want me fingerprinted like I was smuggling drugs
While the government does deals with the most convenient thugs
Sometimes I feel just like committing a crime

[Chorus]
It's needle time
It's needle time
It's needle time
It's needle time

[Verse 3]
I'm trying not to despise you with a passion that's hard to extinguish
Or maybe I really love you, although it's hard to distinguish
I wish I could be more like a saint is forgiving those who trespass against us
Sometimes I feel just like committing a crime
I started talking nonsense, just like I did to begin with
Around the time I tired of those sour English
Sometimes I feel just like committing a crime

[Chorus]
It's needle time
It's needle time
It's needle time
It's needle time
