Elvis Costello - Deep Dark Truthful Mirror слова песни
One day youre going to have to faceA deep dark truthful mirrorAnd its going to tell you things that I still love you too much to sayThe sky was just a purple bruise, the ground was ironAnd you fell all around the town until you looked the sameChorus:The same eyes, the same lips, the same lie fromYour tongue tripsDeep dark, deep dark truthful mirrorDeep dark, deep dark truthful mirrorNow the flagstone streets where the newspaper shouts ring to the boots of roustaboutsBut youre never in any doubt, theres something happening somewhereYou chase down the road til your fingers bleedOn a fiberglass tumbleweedYou can blow around the town, but it all shuts down the sameChorusSo you bay for the boy in the tiger-skin trunksThey set him up, set him up on the stoolHe falls down, falls down like a drunkAnd you drink til you droolAnd its his story youll flatterYoull stretch him out like a saintBut the canvas that he splattered will be thePicture that you never paintChorusA stripping puppet on a liquid stick gets into it pretty thickA butterfly drinks a turtles tears, but how do you know he really needs it? cos a butterfly feeds on a dead monkeys hand,Jesus wept he felt abandonedYoure spellbound baby theres no doubting thatDid you ever see a stare like a persian cat? Chorus
