Elvis Costello - Payday

Tekst :

Let s go out on the town tonight
My pockets are heavy with loot
And get drunk and blasted
(And loud in your dress of blue)
I ve been living from hand to mouth
It must be three or four weeks
And I can tell you one thing Jack
You listen when your stomach speaks

I feel good just like I knew that I would
And all on account of that wine that I bought today
I m smiling so sweet
At every little girl that I meet
Some fools will try to tell you it s a sin to feel this way

It feels so funny having all of this money
I think I feel like dancing the night away
I think I feel like dancing the night away

I got me this long legged girl
To help me to spend my dough
Her heart as big as your mama s stove
And her body like Brigitte Bardot

I m all ready for some Rock and Roll
With the guitar turned up loud
And the fancy footwork
And the (drunk) down, druged up crowd

I feel good just like I knew that I would
All on account of that wine that I bought today
I m smiling so sweet
At every little girl that I meet
Some fools will try to tell you it s a sin to feel this way

It feels so funny having all of this money
I think I feel like dancing the night away
I think I feel like dancing the night away

Elvis Costello - Pay it back

Tekst :

Stop thief; you re gonna come to grief
if you don t take a little more care.
You re gonna get more than the family plan
from this one shoestring affair.
I may be crazy but I can t contemplate
being trapped between the doctor and the magistrate.
One of these days I m gonna pay it back, pay it back,
one of these days.
One of these days I m gonna pay it back, pay it back,
one of these days.

And then they told me I could be somebody
if I didn t let too much get in my way.
And I tried so hard just to be myself,
but I keep on fading away.
Until the lights went out, I didn t know what to do.
If I could fool myself, then maybe I d fool you too.

chorus

I wouldn t say that I was raised on romance.
Let s not get stuck in the past.
I love you more than everything in the world.
I don t expect that will last.
They told me everything was guaranteed.
Somebody somewhere must ve lied to me.

Elvis Costello - Peace, love and understanding

Tekst :

As I walk through
This wicked world
Searchin for light in the darkness of insanity.
I ask myself
Is all hope lost?
Is there only pain and hatred, and misery?

And each time I feel like this inside,
There s one thing I wanna know:
What s so funny bout peace love & understanding? Ohhhh
What s so funny bout peace love & understanding?

And as I walked on
Through troubled times
My spirit gets so downhearted sometimes
So where are the strong
And who are the trusted?
And where is the harmony?
Sweet harmony.

Cause each time I feel it slippin away, just makes me wanna cry.
What s so funny bout peace love & understanding? Ohhhh
What s so funny bout peace love & understanding?

So where are the strong?
And who are the trusted?
And where is the harmony?
Sweet harmony.

Cause each time I feel it slippin away, just makes me wanna cry.
What s so funny bout peace love & understanding? Ohhhh
What s so funny bout peace love & understanding? Ohhhh
What s so funny bout peace love & understanding?

Inne utwory

Losowe utwory

Diabelski dom cz.III

Bojowy ryk nas zjednał
Zbiorowa kąpiel
Głodny seksu dom
I cichy sonet morza dusz.
Szatanie, słodko mi tak
Po nodze stąpa szczur
Goni coś

W alarmie do piekieł pozwalam
Milordzie Achimowy prosić o
Wydajną dziewicę
Która gra

Stalowy cień jej nóg
Jak noc
Owija wolno
Śliski, mokry tors.
Kiedy siądzie blisko mnie
Kiedy dotknę ją?

Jad pali krew
Zatrute ciało Boga dusz
Powoli jad pali krew
Zatrute ciało Boga dusz

Little light of love

From a little light of love
I was born and in my cry, my cry
Was a little light of love
For the honouring of life
And the Pharos of my soul
Is this light of love
Precious little light of love

As a candle burning on
In the...

That girl

You said you didn’t need me but you did
You said you didn’t want me. but you do
it’s kinda like a comedy
First you kiss me and then say we’re through

I say you’ve got some issues, Yeag you do
Some things you gotta work through, you really do...

The moor

The sigh of summer upon my return
Fifteen alike since I was here
Bathed in deep fog, blurring my trail
Snuffing the first morning rays

Weary from what might have been ages
Still calm with my mind at peace
Would I prosper or...

Black boots

Why do you think she wears those black boots...
Why do you think she dyes her hair black...

She s awfully insecure
She s trying to be cool
She s hoping to be more in those,
black boots.

Why do I think...
