The Other Side Of Summer - Elvis Costello (埃尔维斯 科斯特洛)[00:00:00]
The sun struggles up another beautiful day[00:00:03]
And I felt glad in my own suspicious way[00:00:07]
Yeah yeah yeah yeah[00:00:11]
Despite the contradiction and confusion[00:00:15]
Felt tragic without reason[00:00:18]
There's malice and there's magic in every season[00:00:19]
From the foaming breakers of the poisonous surf[00:00:23]
The other side of summer[00:00:26]
To the burning forests in the hills of Astroturf[00:00:30]
The other side of summer[00:00:34]
The automatic gates close up between the shanties and the palace[00:00:41]
The blowtorch amusements the voodoo chalice[00:00:45]
The pale pathetic promises that everybody swallows[00:00:49]
The teenage girl is crying 'cos she don't look like a million dollars[00:00:53]
So help her if you can[00:00:57]
'Cos she don't seem to have the attention span[00:01:00]
From the foaming breakers of the poisonous surf[00:01:03]
The other side of summer[00:01:06]
To the burning forests in the hills of Astroturf[00:01:10]
The other side of summer[00:01:14]
Was it a millionaire who said "Imagine no possessions" [00:01:21]
A poor little schoolboy who said "We don't need no lessons" [00:01:26]
The rabid rebel dogs ransack the shampoo shop[00:01:29]
The pop princess is downtown shooting up[00:01:33]
And if that goddess is fit for burning[00:01:36]
The sun will struggle up the world will still keep turning[00:01:39]
Madman standing by the side of the road saying[00:01:47]
"Look at my eyes look at my eyes look at my eyes look at my eyes"[00:01:51]
Yeah yeah yeah yeah[00:01:55]
Now you can't afford to fake[00:01:59]
All the drugs your parents used to take[00:02:00]
Because of their mistakes you'd better be wide awake[00:02:03]
From the foaming breakers of the poisonous surf[00:02:06]
The other side of summer[00:02:09]
To the burning forests in the hills of Astroturf[00:02:13]
The other side of summer[00:02:17]
The mightiest rose the absence of perfume[00:02:21]
The casual killers the military curfew[00:02:25]
The cardboard city and the unwanted birthday[00:02:29]
The other side of summer[00:02:32]
The dancing was desperate the music was worse[00:02:36]
They bury your dreams and dig up the worthless[00:02:40]
Goodnight God bless and kiss "Goodbye" to the earth[00:02:44]
The other side of summer the other side of summer[00:02:48]
The other side of summer the other side of summer[00:02:55]
The other side of summer the other side of summer[00:03:03]
The other side other side other side other[00:03:10]
