Elvis Costello — Any Kings Shilling

[Verse 1] You're a fine one, oh yes you are You're a fine one just like me And we're friends now, oh wouldn't you say? We've been friends now, oh haven't we? [Chorus] Stay at home tonight if you know what's good for you I can't say more, it would be telling For if you don't, what will become of you? Just isn't worth any king's shilling [Verse 2] I will answer when they make that call Pull upon this ragged uniform Up till now I know it's been your trade Spit and polish the potato parade [Chorus] Stay at home tonight if you know what's good for you I can't say more, it would be telling For if you don't, what will become of you? Just isn't worth any king's shilling [Bridge] Please don't put your silly head in that pretty soldier's hat You've done your duty, that's enough of that [Verse 3] I don't know if what I'm doing is right I don't know if you should be forgiving But for me it seems it means my life While for you it could just be a living [Chorus] Stay at home tonight if you know what's good for you I can't say more, it would be telling For if you don't, what will become of you? Just isn't worth any king's shilling [Bridge] Please don't put your silly head in that pretty soldier's hat You've done your duty, that's enough of that [Outro] You're a fine one, oh yes you are You're a fine one, just like me
