It doesn't refer to murder, Costello himself has publicly stated this.

This is the best or the worst song ever (or indeed both) for all of us who have had a girlfriend who fucked us up and who was called Alison.

u cunts gt no idea juist listen

[Jonathan Zabel]

What was his intentions ? This world can be very dark , dangerous place : I hope you had another ( safe ) adult to confide in . Check out Elvis Costello's song "Oliver's Army " : it sort of reminds me of the private contractors like Halliburton , that worked in Iraq .

[Kaleb Ward]

I like this version better

Substitute for what?

[Allison Gillis]

A creepy substitute sang this song to me today because my name's Allison ... So I youtube it and it's not to bad! Still a bit creeped out though ..

Nostalgia.

[chenrobbins]

Elvis Costello -- a throwback to when musicians succeeded based on brilliant talent and heart and not on pretty faces and formulaic drivel.
