Here's more interesting things in songs and lyrics tied to Elvis Costello or about the 1980s in general.

This must be the place
Second place in the human race
Down in the basement
Now I know what he meant
Secondary modern
But there won’t be a problem till the girls go home
This is the hand that you never shook
You never gave me the chance that I took
Secondary modern
But there won’t be a problem till the girls go home

Is it out of the question
Between you and me
Is it pleasure or business
Or a packet of three?

Nobody makes me sad like you
Now my whole world goes from blue to blue
Secondary modern
But there won’t be a problem till the girls go home…
