Costello Elvis All This Useless Beauty The Other End Of The Telescope Shall we agree that just this once I'm going to change my life Until it's just as tiny or important as you like And in time we won't even remember we spoke Words that turned out to be as big as smoke A smoke that disappears into the air There's always something smoldering somewhere I know it don't make a difference to you But oh! It sure made a difference to me You'll see me off in the distance I hope At the other end At the other end of the telescope The promise of indulgence in my confidential voice Approached immortal danger but you'll never know how close Then down the hall I overheard such a heavenly choir They interrupted my evil designs One day you are up in the clouds The next thing you're down with the Sweet Adelines I know it don't make a difference to you But oh! It sure made a difference to me You'll see me off in the distance I hope At the other end At the other end of the telescope Lie down baby now Don't say a word There there baby your vision is blurred Your head is so sore from all of that thinking I don't want to hurt you know But I think you're shrinking You're half-naked ambition and half out of your wits Or several tiny fractions that this portrait still omits Now it's so hard to pick the receiver up when I call I never noticed you could be so small The answer was under your nose but the question never arose I know it don't make a difference to you But oh! It sure made a difference to me You'll see me off in the distance I hope 'Cos late in the evening as I sit here moping With a bamboo needle on a shellac of Chopin And the cast-iron heart that you failed to tear open At the other end At the other end of the telescope |
