《...This Town...》歌词

[00:00:01] This Town - Elvis Costello

[00:00:28] That Charlie Sedarka was a playing the piano

[00:00:32] Like he was pawing a dirty book

[00:00:36] He bit a hole in his big bottom lip

[00:00:40] And gave his very best little boy look

[00:00:44] And it was a song with a topical verse which I'm

[00:00:47] Afraid he then proceeded to sing

[00:00:51] Something about the moody doomed love of

[00:00:55] The fish finger king

[00:00:58] Nobody in this town

[00:01:01] Nobody in this crowd

[00:01:05] Nobody 'til everybody in this town

[00:01:10] Knows you're poison

[00:01:12] Got your number knows it must be avoided

[00:01:17] I think nobody 'til everybody in this town

[00:01:22] Thinks you're a bastard

[00:01:29] Mr Getgood moved up to self-made man row

[00:01:33] Although he swears that he's the salt of the earth

[00:01:37] He's so proud of the kick-me-hard sign that

[00:01:41] They hung on his back at birth

[00:01:45] Well he said "I appreciate beauty

[00:01:48] If I have one then it's my fault

[00:01:52] Beauty is on my pillow

[00:01:56] Beauty is there in my vault"

[00:01:59] Nobody in this town

[00:02:03] Nobody in this crowd

[00:02:07] Nobody 'til everybody in this town

[00:02:13] Knows you're poison

[00:02:14] Got your number knows it must be avoided

[00:02:19] I think nobody 'til everybody in this town

[00:02:24] Thinks you're a bastard

[00:02:35] The girl with the eternity rock

[00:02:38] Went down on her bookie to buy some stock

[00:02:42] Now all her signs in the shopping arcades say

[00:02:46] 'The corporation thief is The New Jesse James'

[00:02:50] Her clothes and her attention were scant

[00:02:53] Her eyes were everywhere her eyes were like absinthe

[00:02:57] The little green figures that dance on his screen

[00:03:01] Say "Everything you want to hear and nothing they mean"

[00:03:05] They made love while she was changing her dress

[00:03:08] She wiped him off she wiped him out and then she made him confess

[00:03:12] A little amused by the belief in her power

[00:03:16] You must remember this it was the fetish of the hour

[00:03:19] Nobody in this town

[00:03:23] Nobody in this crowd

[00:03:27] Nobody 'til everybody in this town

[00:03:32] Knows you're poison

[00:03:34] Got your number knows it must be avoided

[00:03:40] I think nobody 'til everybody in this town

[00:03:44] Thinks you're a bastard

[00:03:48] Nobody in this town

[00:03:52] Nobody in this crowd

[00:03:56] Nobody in this town

[00:03:59] Nobody in this crowd

[00:04:03] Nobody in this town

[00:04:07] Nobody in this crowd

[00:04:10] Nobody in this town

[00:04:14] Nobody in this crowd
