《National Ransom》歌词

[00:00:00] National Ransom - Elvis Costello
[00:00:00] Written by:Elvis Costello
[00:00:13] Runnin' pell mell and harum scarum
[00:00:19] Runnin' as hot as
[00:00:20] They do or dare
[00:00:24] Stick out your tongue and
[00:00:26] Drink down all the venom
[00:00:30] Off cut throat cuthbert
[00:00:32] And Millicent St. Cyr
[00:00:36] From the real old Macau
[00:00:39] To the new False Americas
[00:00:42] In the liberated territories
[00:00:45] Unusual suspects shake down
[00:00:48] Shake down shake down
[00:00:51] Various dubious characters
[00:00:59] Mother's in the kitchen
[00:01:00] Pickin' bones for breakfast
[00:01:05] Boilin' them down by
[00:01:06] The bushel and the score
[00:01:11] Pull out your thumb and
[00:01:12] Count what's left on your fist
[00:01:17] There's a wolf at the window
[00:01:18] With a ravenin' maw
[00:01:23] Did you find how to lie
[00:01:26] Did you find out how to cheat
[00:01:29] The elite bleat their obsolete
[00:01:32] So are your prospects
[00:01:34] Exact perfect object
[00:01:37] Now if you'd only genuflect
[00:01:40] They're runnin' wild just like some
[00:01:45] Childish tantrum
[00:01:48] Meanwhile we're workin' every day
[00:01:51] Payin' off the National Ransom
[00:02:05] Woe betide all this hocus pocus
[00:02:11] They're runnin' us ragged
[00:02:13] At their first attempt
[00:02:17] Around the time the killin'
[00:02:19] Stopped on Wall St.
[00:02:23] You couldn't hold me baby
[00:02:24] With anythin' but contempt
[00:02:29] Letters peal slowly from our speech
[00:02:32] The claxton attempts to preach
[00:02:35] Stretchin' out for stars
[00:02:37] Still out of reach
[00:02:38] Drownin' flailin' outside
[00:02:42] Someone's wailin'
[00:02:45] They're runnin' wild just like some
[00:02:49] Childish tantrum
[00:02:52] Meanwhile we're workin' every day
[00:02:56] Payin' off the National Ransom
[00:03:03] They're runnin' wild just like some
[00:03:07] Childish tantrum
[00:03:10] Meanwhile we're workin' every day
[00:03:14] Payin' off the National Ransom
