Lyrics for 45 by Elvis Costello:
| | | Artist: | Elvis Costello |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | 45 | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 74 | | | | Lyrics: | Bells are chiming for victory
Theres a page back in history
45
They came back to the
world that they fought for
Didnt turn out just like they thought
45
Here is a
song to sing to do the measuring
What do you lose, what do you gain, what do you win?
Nine years later a child is born
Theres a record, so you put it on
45
Nine
years more, if were lucky now
Nine-year-old puts his money down
45
Every scratch.
every click, every heartbeat
Every breath that I held for you
45
Theres a stack of
shellac and vinyl
Which is yours now and which is mine?
45
Repeat chorus
Bass and treble heal every hurt
Theres a rebel in a nylon shirt
But the words
are a mystery, Ive heard
Til you turn it down to 33 and 13
Cos it helps with the elocution
Corporations turn revolutions
45
So dont just weep and shed
Just change
your name instead
What do you lose when it all goes to your head?
I heard something
peculiar said:
Perhaps hes got a shot and now hes dead
45
Bells are chiming and
tears are falling
It creeps up on you without a warning
45
Every scratch, every
click, every heartbeat
Every breath that I bless
Id be lost, I confess
