Pony St - Elvis Costello (埃尔维斯 科斯特洛)[00:00:00]
She lives on Pony Street[00:00:09]
And they should scatter flowers at her feet[00:00:12]
But when they come calling I think it's appalling[00:00:15]
They're sober and they're polite[00:00:19]
They're deeply respectful when I would expect them[00:00:22]
To keep her out all night[00:00:25]
That little martinet[00:00:30]
Will get her own way yet[00:00:33]
If you need instruction in mindless destruction[00:00:36]
I'll show you a thing or two[00:00:39]
You used to adore me but now my life flashes before me[00:00:42]
For you to view[00:00:46]
Oh mother oh mother sometimes you are so mortifying[00:00:51]
From the hole in your leopard skin tights I can tell you've been spying[00:00:56]
But your generation confesses before it transgresses[00:01:01]
Those Super-8 movies of daddy in your disco dresses[00:01:07]
If you're going out tonight[00:01:13]
I won't wait up[00:01:16]
Reading "Das Kapital"[00:01:20]
Watching "Home Shopping Club"[00:01:23]
While you're flogging a dead horse[00:01:25]
All the way down Pony Street[00:01:28]
Where you live after a fashion[00:01:31]
All the way down Pony Street[00:01:34]
The life and the soul of every indiscretion[00:01:38]
That lives on that lives on that lives on[00:01:42]
Pony Street[00:01:46]
Daughter oh daughter you know I will love you forever[00:01:49]
But spare me the white ankle socks with the lace and the leather[00:01:54]
For you and your cartoon threat do no good to resist me[00:01:59]
For I am the genuine thing but for you it's just history[00:02:04]
If you're going out tonight[00:02:10]
How can you be sure[00:02:13]
Where you lay your pretty head[00:02:17]
Mother may have been before[00:02:20]
So you're flogging a dead horse[00:02:22]
All the way down Pony Street[00:02:25]
Where you live after a fashion[00:02:28]
All the way down Pony Street[00:02:31]
The life and the soul of every indiscretion[00:02:34]
That lives on That lives on That lives on[00:02:38]
That lives on That lives on[00:02:43]
She lives on Pony Street She lives on Pony Street[00:02:47]
She lives on she lives on She lives on she lives on[00:02:53]
