A Lyrical Survey

I'd have more story for you..but alas I was burning Costello shows..and lost track of time...So you'll have to reread..the last entries..

Here's a kewl survey..this will make Lindsey jealous..though I think I've done this one at The Brothers Elfman before..

SURVEY: Answer each question using lyrics from a certain band.

1. Are you male or female?
Girls talk and they want to 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 know by now Girls Talk ~from the album 10 Bloody Marys and 10 How's Your Fathers by Elvis Costello


2. Describe yourself.
Sulky girl
I'm sure you look a picture when you cry
Threatening the silent treatment doesn't qualify
It's like money in the bank
Your expression is blank
But while the chance appears
You'll be nearer to tears
Sulky girl Sullky Girl ~from the album Brutal Youth by Elvis Costello

3. How do they feel about you?
All grown up
And you don't care anymore
And you hate all the people that you used to adore
And you despise all the rumors and lies of the life you led before All Grown Up ~ from the album Mighty Like a Rose by Elvis Costello

4. How do you feel about yourself?
Sometimes I almost feel just like a human being Lipstick Vogue ~ from the album This Year's Model by Elvis Costello

5. How do you feel about life?
I wanna bite the hand that feeds me.
I wanna bite that hand so badly.
I want to make them wish they'd never seen me Radio Radio ~ from the album This Year's Model by Elvis Costello

6. What would you rather be doing?
Don't move a muscle baby
Don't even flinch
You can miss me by a mile
Or just inch by inch Inch by Inch ~ from the album Goodbye Cruel World by Elvis Costello
>
> 7. Describe where you live.
Home isn't where it used to be
Home is anywhere you hang your head Home Is Anywhere You Hang Your Head ~ from the album Blood and Chocolate by Elvis Costello

> 8. Describe how you feel about the person you love.
They say they're going to bury you
Because you're so lovable
Put your money where your mouth was
You're so lovable
Each tender mumble brings us closer to bedlam
You're so lovable
The toast of the town and the talk of the bedroom
You're so lovable Lovable ~ from the album King of America by Elvis Costello

9. Describe how you love.

She's going to make you suffer tonight
To turn you from a playboy into a man
And when you're worthy of her then she might
Turn you from a playboy into a man Playboy to a Man ~ from the album Mighty Like a Rose by Elvis Costello

> 10. Share a few words of wisdom.
Love is always scarpering or cowering or fawning
You drink yourself insensitive and hate yourself in the morning Man Out of Time ~ from the album Imperial Bedroom by Elvis Costello
