The Invisible Man (Album Version) - Elvis Costello & The Attractions[00:00:01]
I was committed to life and then commuted to the outskirts[00:00:16]
With all the love in the world[00:00:19]
Living for thirty minutes at a time with a break[00:00:22]
In the middle for adverts[00:00:25]
But it's a wonderful world within these cinema walls[00:00:28]
Where a shower of affection becomes Niagara Falls[00:00:32]
And you wish she could step down from the screen[00:00:36]
To your seat in the stalls[00:00:39]
But if stars are only painted on the ceiling above[00:00:41]
Then who can you turn to and who do you love[00:00:45]
I want to get out while I still can[00:00:48]
I want to be like Harry Houdini[00:00:51]
Now I'm the invisible man[00:00:54]
My head is spinning round faster and faster[00:00:59]
Here I stand on the edge of disaster[00:01:05]
I'm shattered like a piece of crystal porcelain[00:01:11]
Or alabaster[00:01:14]
'Cause if stars are only painted on the ceiling above[00:01:29]
Then who can you turn to and who do you love[00:01:33]
I want to get out while I still can[00:01:36]
Crowds surround loudspeakers hanging from the lampposts[00:01:39]
Listening to the murder mystery[00:01:42]
Meanwhile someone's hiding in the classroom[00:01:46]
Forging the books of history[00:01:49]
Never mind there's a good film showing tonight[00:01:52]
Where they hang everybody who can read and write[00:01:55]
Oh that could never happen here[00:01:58]
But then again it might[00:02:01]
'Cause if stars are only painted on the ceiling above[00:02:04]
Then who can you turn to and who do you love[00:02:08]
I want to get out while I still can[00:02:11]
I want to be like Harry Houdini[00:02:14]
Now I'm the invisible man[00:02:17]
Now I'm the invisible man[00:02:20]
Now I'm the invisible man[00:02:23]
Now I'm the invisible man[00:02:26]
And you won't see me[00:02:32]
