Hand In Hand Lyrics - Elvis Costello

No, don't ask me to apologize 

I won't ask you to forgive me 

If I'm gonna go down, you're gonna come with me 

You say, "Why don't you be a man about it 

Like they do in the grown up movies?" 

But when it comes to the other way around 

You say you just wanna use me 

Oh, you sit and you wonder whether 

It's gonna be syndicated 

You sit with your knees together 

All the time your breath is bated

Hand in hand, no, don't ask me to apologize 

I won't ask you to forgive me 

If I'm gonna go down, you're gonna come with me 

Don't you know I got the bully boys out 

Changing someone's facial design 

Sitting with my toy room lout 

Polishing my precious china 

Don't you know I'm an animal 

But don't you know I can't stand up steady 

But you can't show me any kind of hell 

That I don't know already

Hand in hand, no, don't ask me to apologize 

I won't ask you to forgive me 

If I'm gonna go down, you're gonna come with me 

Hand in hand, hand in hand, hand in hand 

Hand in hand, hand in hand, hand in hand, hand in hand 

Hand in hand, hand in hand, hand in hand, hand in hand 

Hand in hand, hand in hand, hand in hand
