Element Within Her by Elvis Costello

(La la la)
It's the element within her
Something under her skin
That is shining out through the face of the girl
Two sapphires and couple of rows of pearls

It's just a part of it
Like your fine tresses
You know what my guess is
(La la la)

It's the element within her
Something under her skin
That is shining out through the face of the girl
Two sapphires and couple of rows of pearls

And he was a playboy
Charm the birds right out of the trees
Now he says, "What do I do with these?"
(La la la)

This love in my heart
Let no one set as under
Sometimes I wonder
(La la la)

But back in the bedroom
With her electric heater
He says, "Are you cold?"
She says, "No, but you are"
La la la

(La la la)
It's the element within her
(La la la)

(La la la)
It's the element within her
(La la la)
It's the element within her

(La la la)
It's the element within her
(La la la)
Oh, it's the element within her
(La la la)
