The People's Limousine
作詞:T-bone Burnett, Elvis Costello
It's a chilly Florentine evening Two men in Eden hats Telling tales of the underground And fishing for rats
Policemen armed with Uzis Stand guard but they don't speak Ain't seen no Michaelangelo He'll be here next week
The girl in shoes with the crystal heels Is chaperoned by her brother They raise a glass of amber wine Take pictures of each other
Of the policemen and the fountains And the sickle and the hammer And they hail their Uncle Romulus With his walking cane and camera
She looked like someone's girlfriend She looked like a dream She looked as unlikely As the people's limousine
Come and sit by me, girl Before I breathe the breath out of you Hush your mouth and cover your eyes For I tell your father of you
He paid to have you painted In the company of angels 更多更詳盡歌詞 在 ※ Mojim.com 魔鏡歌詞網 Only to find you flirting here With Chico Marx and perverted angles
She looked like someone's girlfriend She looked like a dream She looked as unlikely As the people's limousine
The patron saint of television Smiles down from the shelf Romulus can't criticize But he can't bless himself
He has a tin of pea green paint And a big roll of black tape To vandalize these obscenities Then make his escape
She walked up to the nice policeman And asked him for a match He saw Romulus approaching And slipped off the safety catch
Then cut down her uncle He was painted red and green Just as she was kidnapped In the people's limousine
She looked like someone's girlfriend She looked like a dream She looked so unlikely In the people's limousine
