Elvis Costello - The Other Side Of Summer Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • The sun struggles up another beautiful day
  • And I felt glad in my own suspicious way
  • Despite the contradiction and confusion
  • Felt tragic without reason
  • Theres malice and theres magic in every season
  • Chorus
  • From the foaming breakers of the poisonous surf
  • The other side of summer
  • To the burning forests in the hills of astroturf
  • The other side of summer
  • The automatic gates close up between the shanties and the palace
  • The blowtorch amusements, the voodoo chalice
  • The pale pathetic promises that everybody swallows
  • A teenage girl is crying cos she dont look like a million dollars
  • So help her if you can
  • cos she dont seem to have the attention span
  • Chorus
  • Was it a millionaire who said imagine no possessions?
  • A poor little schoolboy who said we dont need no lessons?
  • The rabid rebel dogs ransack the shampoo shop
  • The pop princess is downtown shooting up
  • And if that goddess if fit for burning
  • The sun will struggle up the world will still keep turning
  • Madman standing by the side of the road saying
  • Look at my eyes, look at my eyes, look at my eyes, look at my eyes
  • Now you cant afford to fake all the drugs your parents used to take
  • Because of their mistakes youd better be wide awake
  • Chorus
  • The mightiest rose
  • The absence of perfume
  • The casual killers
  • The military curfew
  • The cardboard city
  • An unwanted birthday
  • The other side of summer
  • The dancing was desperate, the music was worse
  • They bury your dreams and dig up the worthless
  • Goodnight
  • God bless
  • And kiss goodbye to the earth
  • The other side of summer
