I Almost Had A Weakness Lyrics
The song I Almost Had A Weakness is performed by Elvis Costello in the album named The Juliet Letters in the year 2006 .
Thank you for the flowers, I threw them on the fire
And I burned the photographs that you had enclosed
God, they were ugly children
So you're the little bastard of that brother of mine
Trying to trick a poor old woman
'Til I almost had a weakness
Last week Cousin Florence bit your Uncle Joe
Hit him on the forehead with a knife and a fork
Said that he looked like the devil
Then she said, "Pa*s the vinegar," I'm beginning to think
That I'm the only one who hasn't taken to the drinking of it
Though I almost had a weakness
It pains me to mention these delicate concerns
But while I have to tolerate you family jewels
I really mustn't grumble
'Cause when I die the cats and dogs will jump up and down
And you little swines will get nothing
Though I almost had a weakness
