Tokyo Storm Warning Album Version - Elvis Costello & The Attractions[00:00:00]

The sky fell over cheap Korean monster movie scenery[00:00:16]

And spilled into the mezzanine[00:00:22]

Of the crushed capsule hotel[00:00:25]

Between the Disney abattoir[00:00:28]

And the chemical refinery[00:00:31]

And I knew I was in trouble[00:00:34]

But I thought I was in hell[00:00:36]

So you look around the tiny room[00:00:46]

And you wonder where the hell you are[00:00:49]

While the K K K[00:00:52]

Convention are all stranded in the bar[00:00:54]

They wear hoods and carry shotguns[00:00:58]

In the main streets of Montgomery[00:01:01]

But they're helpless here as babies[00:01:04]

'Cause they're only here on holiday[00:01:07]

What do we care if the world is a joke[00:01:11]

Tokyo Storm Warning[00:01:15]

We'll give it a big kiss[00:01:16]

We'll give it a poke[00:01:19]

Tokyo Storm Warning[00:01:20]

Death wears a big hat 'cause he's a big bloke[00:01:23]

Tokyo Storm Warning[00:01:26]

We're only living this instant[00:01:29]

The black sand stuck beneath[00:01:34]

Her feet in a warm Sorrento sunrise[00:01:36]

A barefoot girl from Naples[00:01:40]

Or was it a Barcelona hi-rise[00:01:43]

Whistles out the tuneless theme[00:01:46]

Song on a hundred cheap suggestions[00:01:49]

And a million false seductions[00:01:52]

And all those eternal questions[00:01:55]

What do we care if the world is a joke[00:01:59]

Tokyo Storm Warning[00:02:03]

We'll give it a big kiss[00:02:05]

We'll give it a poke[00:02:08]

Tokyo Storm Warning[00:02:09]

Death wears a big hat[00:02:11]

'Cause he's a big bloke[00:02:14]

Tokyo Storm Warning[00:02:15]

We're only living this instant[00:02:17]

So they flew the Super Constellation all the way from Rimini[00:02:23]

And feasted them on fish[00:02:29]

And chips from a newspaper facsimile[00:02:31]

Now dead Italian tourists bodies litter up the Broadway[00:02:34]

Some people can't be told you[00:02:41]

Know they have to learn the hard way[00:02:43]

Holidays are dirt-cheap in the Costa del Malvinas[00:02:59]

In the Hotel Argentina they can hardly tell between us[00:03:04]

For Teresa is a waitress though she's now known as Juanita[00:03:10]

In a tango bar in Stanley or in Puerto Margarita[00:03:16]

She's the sweetest and the sauciest[00:03:22]

The loveliest and the naughtiest[00:03:26]

She's Miss Buenos Aires in a world of lacy lingerie[00:03:29]

What do we care if the world is a joke[00:03:35]

Tokyo Storm Warning[00:03:39]

We'll give it a big kiss[00:03:41]

We'll give it a poke[00:03:44]

Tokyo Storm Warning[00:03:45]

Death wears a big hat 'cause he's a big bloke[00:03:47]

Tokyo Storm Warning[00:03:51]

We're only living this instant[00:03:53]

Japanese God Jesus robots telling teenage fortunes[00:03:59]

For all we know and all we care[00:04:05]

They might as well be Martians[00:04:08]

They say gold paint on the palace gates[00:04:11]

Comes from the teeth of pensioners[00:04:14]

They're so tired of shooting protest singers[00:04:17]

That they hardly mention us[00:04:20]

While fountains fill with second-hand perfume[00:04:23]

And sodden trading stamps[00:04:27]

They'll hang the bullies[00:04:29]

And the louts that dampen down the day[00:04:31]

What do we care if the world is a joke[00:04:36]

Tokyo Storm Warning[00:04:39]

We'll give it a big kiss[00:04:41]

We'll give it a poke[00:04:44]

Tokyo Storm Warning[00:04:45]

Death wears a big hat 'cause he's a big bloke[00:04:48]

Tokyo Storm Warning[00:04:51]

We're only living this instant[00:04:54]

Hey[00:04:57]

We braved the cold November air[00:04:59]

And the undertaker's curses[00:05:03]

Saying Take me to the Folies Bergere[00:05:06]

And please don't spare the hearses[00:05:08]

For he always had a dream of[00:05:11]

That revolver in your purse[00:05:14]

How you loved him 'til you hated him[00:05:17]

And made him cry for mercy[00:05:20]

He said Don't ever mention my name there[00:05:23]

Or talk of all the nights you cried[00:05:26]

We've always been like worlds apart[00:05:29]

Now you're seeing two nightmares collide[00:05:32]

What do we care if the world is a joke[00:05:36]

Tokyo Storm Warning[00:05:40]

We'll give it a big kiss[00:05:41]

We'll give it a poke[00:05:44]

Tokyo Storm Warning[00:05:45]

Death wears a big hat 'cause he's a big bloke[00:05:48]

Tokyo Storm Warning[00:05:51]

We're only living this instant[00:05:54]

Wah ow[00:05:57]
