《Veronica(Demo)》歌词

[00:00:00] Veronica - Demo - Elvis Costello

[00:00:06] Is it all in that pretty little head of yours

[00:00:09] What goes on in that place in the dark

[00:00:12] Well I used to know a girl

[00:00:14] And I could have sworn

[00:00:16] That her name was Veronica

[00:00:19] Well she used to have

[00:00:20] A carefree mind of her own

[00:00:22] And a delicate look in her eye

[00:00:26] These days I'm afraid

[00:00:27] She's not even sure

[00:00:28] If her name is Veronica

[00:00:31] Do you suppose that waiting hands on eyes

[00:00:35] Veronica has gone to hide

[00:00:38] And all the time she laughs at those

[00:00:41] Who shout her name and steal her clothes

[00:00:44] Veronica

[00:00:48] Veronica

[00:00:50] Veronica

[00:00:54] Did her days drag by did the favors wane

[00:00:57] Did he roam down the town all the while

[00:01:00] Will you wake from your dream

[00:01:02] With a wolf at the door

[00:01:03] Reaching out for Veronica

[00:01:07] Well it was all of 65 years ago

[00:01:09] When the world was the street

[00:01:11] Where she lived

[00:01:12] And a young man sailed

[00:01:14] On a ship in the sea

[00:01:16] With a picture of Veronica

[00:01:19] On the empress of India

[00:01:24] And as she closed her eyes upon the world

[00:01:30] And picked upon the bones of last week's news

[00:01:37] She spoke his name out loud again

[00:01:41] Do you suppose that waiting hands on eyes

[00:01:45] Veronica has gone to hide

[00:01:48] And all the time she laughs at those

[00:01:51] Who shout her name and steal her clothes

[00:01:54] Veronica

[00:01:58] Veronica

[00:02:01] Veronica

[00:02:04] Veronica sits in the favorite chair

[00:02:07] She becomes very quiet and still

[00:02:10] And they call her a name

[00:02:11] That they never get right

[00:02:13] While telling them that she must sit still

[00:02:16] She outside a carefree mind of her own

[00:02:20] With devilish look in her eye

[00:02:23] Saying you can call me

[00:02:24] Anything you like

[00:02:26] But my name is Veronica

[00:02:29] Do you suppose that waiting hands on eyes

[00:02:32] Veronica has gone to hide

[00:02:35] And all the time she laughs at those

[00:02:38] Who shout her name and steal her clothes

[00:02:42] Veronica

[00:02:45] Veronica

[00:02:49] Oh oh

[00:02:52] Veronica
