Good Year For The Roses Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Comrade_Liar 

Cover art for Good Year For The Roses lyrics by Elvis Costello

Yeah it's about the breakdown of a marriage. I think the title is more sort of 'if you cant say anything good dont say anything at all' sort of idea. The singer has nothing good to say about the marriage, so he latches on to the one positive there is about their household at the moment.
