Suede Miscellaneous Shipbuilding Shipbuilding was Suede's contribution to the Help album in aid of Warchild for Bosnia. It is a cover of the Elvis Costello classic and not surprisingly I think it is an improvement on the original; although I am sure Elvis Costello fans won't agree with me. Is it worth it, a new winters coat and shoes for the wife And a bicycle on the boys birthday It's just a rumour that was spread around town By the woman and children, soon we'll be shipbuilding Well I ask you, the boy said "Dad there going to take me to task, But I'll be back by Christmas" It's just a rumour that was spread around town Somebody said that someone got filled in For saying that people get killed in the results of their shipbuilding With all the will in the world, Diving for dear life, when we could be diving for pearls It's just a rumour that was spread around town A telegram or a picture postcard Within weeks we will be reopening the shipyard And notifying the next of kin, once again It's always killed in, We will be shipbuilding With all the will in the world, Diving for dear life, when we could be diving for pearls... |
