Song | Town Cryer |
Artist | Elvis Costello & the Attractions |
Album | Imperial Bedroom |
作曲 : Costello | |
I'm the town crier | |
And everybody knows | |
I'm a little down | |
With a lifetime to go | |
Maybe you don't believe my heart is in the right place | |
Why don't you take a good look at my face | |
Other boys use the splendour of their trembling lip | |
They're so teddy bear tender and tragically hip | |
I'm never going to cry again | |
I'm going to be as strong as them | |
They say they'd die for love | |
And then they live it out | |
They'll give you something to cry about | |
And suddenly you really fall to pieces | |
I'm the town crier | |
And everybody knows | |
I'm a little down | |
With a lifetime to go | |
Maybe you don't believe my heart is in the right place | |
Why don't you take a good look at my face | |
Other boys use the splendour of their trembling lip | |
They're so teddy bear tender and tragically hip | |
Love and unhappiness go arm in arm | |
Long suffering friends of your fatal charm | |
Isn't it a pity that you're going to get hurt | |
Just a little boy lost in a big man's shirt |
