Elvis Costello - Deportee (solo Demo) Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • In the Arrivederci Roma nightclub, bar and grill
  • Standing in the fiberglass ruins watching time stand still
  • All your troubles you confess to another faceless, backless dress
  • Schnapps, chianti, porter and ouzo
  • Pernod, vodka, sambuca--I love you so
  • Deportee
  • There's a tatty beauty talking in riddles
  • Rome burns down and everybody fiddles
  • Deportee
  • But a thousand dollars won't buy you a Yank, you wife, alas
  • There's a thousand years of history ground in this chaser glass
  • And how I wish that she was mine
  • I could have been the King in Six Eight Time
  • Deportee
  • Oh, it's a brittle charm, but she's had enough
  • Still she wrote her name upon his paper cuff
  • And you don't where to start or where to stop
  • All this pillow talk is nothing more than finally talking shop
  • When I came here tonight my pockets were overflowing
  • They took my return ticket without me even knowing
  • Well, I pray to the saints and all the martyrs
  • For the secret life of Frank Sinatra
  • But none of these things have come to pass
  • In America the law is a piece of ass
  • Deportee
  • So it's Schnapps, chianti, porter and ouzo
  • Pernod, vodka, sambuca--I love you so
  • Deportee
  • Deportee
  • Poor Deportee
