Costello Elvis The Juliet Letter This Sad Burlesque Words: Mac Manus Music: Cassidy (2:47) I write in hopes that by the time you get this letter We may live to see achange for the better Or are we so devoted to these wretched selfish motives When the cold facts and figures all add up They cannot contradict this sad burlesque This sad burlesque With miserable failures making entertainment of our fate Laughter cannot dignify of elevate This sad burlesque Now can they recall being young and idealistic Before wading knee-deep in hogwash and arithmetic The pitying smirk The argument runs like clockwork Will run down eventually and splutter to a stop P.S. Well by now you know the worst of it And we've heard all the alibis that they've rehearsed The smug predictions If it's not a contradiction Keep faith in human nature And have mercy on the creatures in this sad burlesque SONG@: Romeo's Seance Words: M.P. Thomas/Mac Manus Music: M. Thomas/Mac Manus (3:33) Is anyone there I can talk to? Give us a sign if you're with me CAN'T you see that I'm dying to hear you EVERYONE ELSE HAS LOST INTEREST AND I'M ALL ALONE IN THIS DREAM HOUSE Though you're gone I don't feel like crying Romeo is calling you Knock once or twice if you're out there Send me a message my sweetheart When I'm out and about I'll be coming to see you IT ISN'T EASY TO LIVE WITH THIS MATRONLY FACE AT THE WINDOW Try to contact me, if you can see how I'm suffering Romeo is calling you Scatter the paper and thimbles You can take care of the candles An unplugged radio plays. She is close NOW Me and my hand-holding baby walking the floor and the ceiling THIS IS the song SHE dictated this evening. Romeo is calling you ROMEO IS CALLING YOU |
