Little Triggers by Elvis Costello Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 1978

[Chorus]
Little triggers that you pull with your tongue
Little triggers
I don't want to be hung up, strung up
When you don't call up
Little sniggers on your lips
Little triggers in your grip
Little triggers, my hand on your hip

[Verse 1]
Thinking all about those censored sequences
Worrying about the consequences
Waiting until I come to my senses
Better put it all in present tenses

[Chorus]
Little triggers that you pull with your tongue
Little triggers
I don't want to be hung up, strung up
When you don't call up
Little sniggers on your lips
Little triggers in your grip
Little triggers, my hand on your hip
[Verse 2]
Worrying about the common decency
When it is only a question of frequency
When you say OK but I got to cheek to be
Saying you're tired of me when you don't even weaken these

[Chorus]
Little triggers that you pull with your tongue
Little triggers
I don't want to be hung up, strung up
When you don't call up
Little sniggers on your lips
Little triggers in your grip
Little triggers, my hand on your hip
