Elvis Costello - Forty-five Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Bells are chiming for victory
  • Theres a page back in history - 45
  • They came back to the world that they fought for
  • Didnt turn out just like they thought - 45
  • Here is a song to sing to do the measuring
  • What did you lose, what did you gain, what did you win?
  • Nine years later a child is born
  • Theres a record so you put it on - 45
  • Nine years more if were lucky now
  • Nine year old puts his money down - 45
  • Every scratch, every click, every heartbeat
  • Every breath that I held for you - 45
  • Theres a stack of shellac and vinyl
  • Which is yours now or which is mine? - 45
  • Here is a song to sing to do the measuring
  • What did you lose, what did you gain, what did you win?
  • Bass and treble heal every hurt
  • Theres a rebel in a nylon shirt
  • But the words are a mystery Ive heard
  • Till you turn it down to thirty-three and a third
  • cause it helps with the elocution
  • Corporations turn revolutions - 45
  • I heard something peculiar said
  • Perhaps hes got a shot and now hes dead - 45
  • So dont you weep and shed(? )
  • Just change my name instead
  • But what do you lose when it all goes to your head?
  • Bells are chiming and tears are falling
  • It creeps up on you without a warning - 45
  • Every scratch, every click, every heartbeat
  • Every breath that Ive blessed
  • Ill be lost I confess - 45 45 45
