High Fidelity Lyrics by Elvis Costello
Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
Some things you never get used to
Even though you're feeling like another man
There's nothing that he can do for you
To shut me away as you walk through
Lovers laughing in their amateur hour
Holding hands in the corridors of power
Even though I'm with somebody else right now
High fidelity
Can you hear me?

There's a new kind of dedication
Maybe you'll find it down the tunnel
Maybe I got above my station
Maybe you're only changing channel

Even though you're nowhere near me
And I know you kiss him so sincerely now
Even though the signal's indistinct
And you worry what silly people think
Who just can't wait to feel so frozen out
I bet he thinks that he was chosen out of millions
I suppose he'll never know about

Chorus
Some things you never get used to    Even though you're feeling like another man    There's nothing that he can do for you    To shut me away as you walk through    Lovers laughing in their amateur hour    Holding hands in the corridors of power    Even though I'm with somebody else right now    High fidelity    Can you hear me?       There's a new kind of dedication    Maybe you'll find it down the tunnel    Maybe I got above my station    Maybe you're only changing channel       Even though you're nowhere near me    And I know you kiss him so sincerely now    Even though the signal's indistinct    And you worry what silly people think    Who just can't wait to feel so frozen out    I bet he thinks that he was chosen out of millions    I suppose he'll never know about       Chorus
