(originally by Elvis Costello)
Oh, it's so funny now be seeing you after so long
But the way you look, I understand that you are not impressed
I heard you let that little friend of mine
Take off your party dress
I'm not gonna get too sentimental
Like those other fickle valentines
'Cause I don't know if you were loving somebody
I only know it isn't mine
Alison, I know this world is killing you
Oh, Alison, my aim is true
Well, I see you've got a husband now
Did he leave your pretty fingers lying in the wedding cake?
You used to hold him right in your hand
Bet it took all he could take
Sometimes, I wish that I could stop you from talking
When I hear the silly things that you say
I think somebody better put out the big light
'Cause I can't stand to see you this way
Alison, I know this world is killing you
Oh, Alison, my aim is true
My aim is true
My aim is true
My aim is true
My aim is true
