《The Comedians》歌词

[00:00:00] The Comedians - Elvis Costello & The Attractions

[00:00:02] Written by：Elvis Costello

[00:00:11] I fell under such gentle persuasion

[00:00:14] You can't refuse it's like a home from home

[00:00:18] Meanwhile in the motor car kingdom

[00:00:21] They're finding all that glitters is not chrome

[00:00:25] The social circle have these cardiac complaints

[00:00:29] Their hearts are empty when their hands are full

[00:00:32] All these new found fond acquaintances

[00:00:35] Turn out to be the red rag to my bull

[00:00:39] And I'm up while the dawn is breaking

[00:00:41] Even though my heart is aching

[00:00:44] I should be drinking a toast to absent friends

[00:00:49] Instead of these comedians

[00:01:13] I've looked into these eyes upon reflection

[00:01:16] They've seen the face of love they've seen a few

[00:01:20] What kind of love is this upon inspection

[00:01:23] You'll be the last to know who's fooling who

[00:01:27] And I'm up while the dawn is breaking

[00:01:29] Even though my heart is aching

[00:01:31] I should be drinking a toast to absent friends

[00:01:37] Instead of these comedians

[00:01:42] And I'm up while the dawn is breaking

[00:01:44] Even though my heart is aching

[00:01:46] I should be drinking a toast to absent friends

[00:01:51] Instead of these comedians
