Elvis Costello - Heathen Town слова песни
We used to call it sin cityNow its gone way past that.Painting the townAnd then burning it down.And even thats old hat.Now there a choir of anglesAnd the fall of romeSinging "ave maria"Or "home sweet home"Chorus:Its just a heathen townI hear only evilAs my tongue is tightened.I used to be god-fearingNow Im so frightenedcause the devil will drag you underBy the sharp tailfinOf your checquered cab (? )Now I cant sit down,Im going overboardIn this heathen town.Starts as an a flirtationAnd ends up as an expensive habit.With one eye on her place (? ? )And thats his prisonAnd the other on a girlDressed as a rabbit.Now you can live foreverIn your fits and startsThe only stake you cannot raiseIs the one driven through your heart.ChorusThe people all said sit down,Sit down youre rocking the boat.The people all said sit down,Sit down youre rocking the boat.cause the devil will drag you underBy the sharp lapels of your checkered coat.Sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down,Sit down youre rocking the boat.
