Alibi Factory Lyrics - Elvis Costello

You did it, 'cause you want it 

Alibi, alibi 

And you took it, 'cause you need it 

Alibi, alibi 

Chorus: 

But if I've done something wrong 

There's no ifs and buts 

'cause I love you just as much 

As I hate your guts 

Alibi, alibi, alibi 

You don't need anybody 

Alibi, alibi 

But you are the only one who knows this 

Alibi, alibi 

You deserve it, 'cause you're special 

Alibi, alibi 

Maybe jesus wants you for a sunbeam 

Alibi, alibi

Chorus 

Bridge: 

Sometimes I'm so forgiving ohhhh oh 

Everything seems bad to me 

But I can't go on living 

With this 

Alibi, alibi, alibi, alibi 

Insane, but I'm mundane 

Alibi, alibi 

You wanted to be famous 

Alibi alibi 

Sorry that your mummy doesn't love you 

Alibi, alibi 

Stop me, if you've heard this 

Alibi, alibi

And my mouth said something right 

There's no big surprise 

There are soldiers to be killed 

But refuse to die 

Alibi, alibi, alibi, alibi
