Radio Silence (Album Version) - Elvis Costello[00:00:00]

Written By：Elvis Coste[00:00:01]

Signal fading listen to what I'm saying[00:00:13]

Testing testing[00:00:20]

This better be worth all of the breath I'm wasting[00:00:23]

Maintaining radio silence from now on[00:00:30]

Barricaded in the talk radio station[00:00:40]

Hostage taken[00:00:47]

The red On-Air light shines on[00:00:50]

Something cheaper that passes for free speech[00:00:53]

Will have to do[00:00:59]

Hear him coming through loud and clear[00:01:07]

Trickling in your ear[00:01:13]

He'll tell you anything you want to hear[00:01:21]

The tape starts running[00:01:35]

He's going to tell you something[00:01:38]

The strings start strumming[00:01:42]

Another humdrum conundrum[00:01:45]

Signing off now[00:01:48]

Maintaining radio silence from now on[00:01:52]

But there's one thing I should have said[00:02:02]

The hostage will end up dead[00:02:08]

It's just a comedy[00:02:16]

The hostage is me[00:02:22]

So pay the ransom[00:02:30]

Beyond the run-out grove[00:02:33]

Get my wife down here[00:02:36]

A helicopter on the roof[00:02:40]

No police marksman[00:02:43]

Maintaining radio silence from now on[00:02:46]

Mystery voices[00:02:57]

Drowned out by too much choice[00:03:00]

That's not to mention[00:03:03]

The sad waste of this wonderful invention[00:03:07]

Maintaining radio silence from now on[00:03:14]

Libraries filled up with failed ideas[00:03:24]

There's nothing more for me there[00:03:30]

I trust in tender ink and gentle airs[00:03:38]

Do those drug dealer still polish women made of wax[00:03:52]

Gangster and world leaders[00:03:58]

Require the same protection from attack[00:04:02]

From this distance it's hard to tell the difference[00:04:07]

Between a king and jack[00:04:12]

And a poet and hack[00:04:16]

Maintaining radio silence from now on[00:04:19]
