Elvis Costello - Beyond Belief - live 1983
I’ve got a feeling
I’m going to get a lot of grief
Once this seemed so appealing
Now I am beyond belief

Elvis Costello “Let Them All Talk”
Punch the clock and in time you’ll get pulled apart
If you’re married on paper and not in your heart
But I won’t be told that life with the one you love is sordid
Just because some authority says you can’t afford it
Elvis Costello “The Greatest Thing”

So this is where he came to hide
When he ran from you
In a private detective’s overcoat
And dirty dead man’s shoes
The pretty things of Knightsbridge
Lying for a minister of state
Are a far cry from the nod and wink
Here at traitor’s gate
‘Cause the high heel he used to be has been ground down
And he listens for the footsteps that would follow him around
To murder my love is crime
But will you still love
A man out of time
-Elvis Costello “Man Out Of Time”

Elvis Costello- New Lace Sleeves
“The salty lips of the socialite sisters
With their continental fingers that have
Never seen working blisters
Oh, I know they’ve got their problems
I wish, I was one of them”

Why do you have to say that there’s always someone
who can do it better than I can?
But don’t you think that I know that walking on the water
won’t make me a Miracle Man?
-Elvis Costello “Miracle Man”

So in this almost empty gin palace
Through a two-way looking glass
You see your Alice
“Dont be careless love.”
Paul and Elvis
Once this seemed so appealing, now I am beyond belief.
