《The Invisible Man》歌词

[00:00:01] The Invisible Man (Album Version) - Elvis Costello & The Attractions

[00:00:16] I was committed to life and then commuted to the outskirts

[00:00:19] With all the love in the world

[00:00:22] Living for thirty minutes at a time with a break

[00:00:25] In the middle for adverts

[00:00:28] But it's a wonderful world within these cinema walls

[00:00:32] Where a shower of affection becomes Niagara Falls

[00:00:36] And you wish she could step down from the screen

[00:00:39] To your seat in the stalls

[00:00:41] But if stars are only painted on the ceiling above

[00:00:45] Then who can you turn to and who do you love

[00:00:48] I want to get out while I still can

[00:00:51] I want to be like Harry Houdini

[00:00:54] Now I'm the invisible man

[00:00:59] My head is spinning round faster and faster

[00:01:05] Here I stand on the edge of disaster

[00:01:11] I'm shattered like a piece of crystal porcelain

[00:01:14] Or alabaster

[00:01:29] 'Cause if stars are only painted on the ceiling above

[00:01:33] Then who can you turn to and who do you love

[00:01:36] I want to get out while I still can

[00:01:39] Crowds surround loudspeakers hanging from the lampposts

[00:01:42] Listening to the murder mystery

[00:01:46] Meanwhile someone's hiding in the classroom

[00:01:49] Forging the books of history

[00:01:52] Never mind there's a good film showing tonight

[00:01:55] Where they hang everybody who can read and write

[00:01:58] Oh that could never happen here

[00:02:01] But then again it might

[00:02:04] 'Cause if stars are only painted on the ceiling above

[00:02:08] Then who can you turn to and who do you love

[00:02:11] I want to get out while I still can

[00:02:14] I want to be like Harry Houdini

[00:02:17] Now I'm the invisible man

[00:02:20] Now I'm the invisible man

[00:02:23] Now I'm the invisible man

[00:02:26] Now I'm the invisible man

[00:02:32] And you won't see me
