[00:00:00] Dust 2 ... (Album Version) - Elvis Costello

[00:00:02] Written By：Elvis Coste

[00:00:15] If dust could only talk

[00:00:17] What would we hear it say

[00:00:19] Before it's brushed aside

[00:00:21] Just as it's swept away

[00:00:23] It's just the evidence

[00:00:25] It's of no consequence

[00:00:27] It's only flesh and bone

[00:00:28] Why don't you leave it alone

[00:00:30] If dust could only speak

[00:00:32] Caught in a falling beam

[00:00:34] If dust could only cry

[00:00:36] If dust could only scream

[00:00:40] For it's the single witness that might testify

[00:00:47] Could I spit out the truth

[00:00:48] Or would you rather just swallow a lie

[00:01:00] But dust is always caught beneath a coat of pain

[00:01:04] Beneath the marble fingernails of kings and saints

[00:01:08] And in the theatre curtain where they hang a drape

[00:01:12] Or in the ticket pocket where your hands escape

[00:01:16] Before they start to wander

[00:01:18] Or they start to shrink

[00:01:22] You rub your eye a little and appear to blink

[00:01:28] And then she caught you staring

[00:01:30] She knows what you're thinking

[00:01:34] What got into you is not a ghost as such

[00:01:37] It was just dust

[00:02:01] Here comes the juggernaut

[00:02:03] Here come The Poisoners

[00:02:05] They choke the life and land

[00:02:07] And rob the joy from us

[00:02:09] Why do they taste of sugar

[00:02:11] Oh when they're made of money

[00:02:13] Here come the Lamb of God

[00:02:15] And the butcher's boy Sonny

[00:02:58] Well I believe we just

[00:03:00] Become a speck of dust

[00:03:06] Well I believe we just

[00:03:08] Become a speck of dust

[00:03:14] Well I believe we just

[00:03:16] Become a speck of dust
