Elvis Costello - Unwanted Number lyrics

Your rating:

You should hear the things that they say about me 

They're saying "She's no better than she needed to be" 

They don't know that he was kind and strong and tender 

And now I'll never be another Unwanted Number 

Unwanted Number 

How can I tell them? 

How can I express? 

How it felt to step out of this life and into his embrace 



How can I tell them? 

How can I explain? 

All the love that I never had I found in him 



There may be a stain on the family name 

And if my father was here I think I know who he'd blame 

Mama says that he just doesn't care to remember 

And all he thinks of me is another Unwanted Number 

Unwanted Number 



(How can I tell her? 

How can I express? 

How it felt when he came to my room 

And helped me to undress 

What can she tell me? 

How can I believe 

That she really didn't hear me cry 

When he wouldn't leave?) 



There's a local game where they whisper my shame 

They say "He gave her his child 

He wouldn't give her his name" 



They will torture me from January till September 

And soon there's going to be another Unwanted Number 

Unwanted Number 

Unwanted number 



And I will give my love to another Unwanted Number 

Unwanted Number
