作曲 : Galia Arad I was minding my own business As a day dreaming assistant Lazily filling out an expense report When suddenly my email it Showed a name that made my heart explode It said from Elvis Costello and lord I cried God is now on my side Stars are all aligned I never guessed That it wasn't Elvis's address Just your cruel plan to make me play your fool again It wasn't even April yet The entire office in applause And pouring wine in coffee mugs High fives and goodbye hugs I quit my job Called my sister dad and mom long Distance on the speaker phone And yelling Elvis Costello will change it all And we cried God is now on our side Stars are all aligned I never guessed that it wasn't Elvis's address Just your cruel plan to make me play your fool again It wasn't even April yet What a weird nightmare Well it was 25 to 12 when I got that poisoned letter I could punch the clock right now For those few seconds of pleasure That would all dissolve when someone took the words away Couldn't call it unexpected you're a boy with a problem No need watching the Detectives When I know you're the impostor You think you're God's comic And it's a dirty rotten shame 'Cause what's so funny 'bout tears Tears and more tears I cried God is now on my side Stars are all aligned I never guessed That it wasn't Elvis's address Just your cruel plan to make me play your fool again It wasn't even April yet It wasn't even April yet
