Broken Promise Land

Broken Promise Land - Elvis Costello[00:00:01]

There's a place[00:00:20]

Where words mean nothing or much less[00:00:21]

Such a disgrace[00:00:26]

We got to get out of this mess[00:00:29]

Coming in under the cover of darkness[00:00:32]

How high shall we build this wall [00:00:37]

I could've said more but it would've seemed heartless[00:00:40]

How hard did I slam that door [00:00:44]

I swore I'd never walk away[00:00:49]

Until I saw this day[00:00:53]

It didn't turn out the way we planned[00:00:56]

Now I'm living in[00:01:00]

Broken Promise Land[00:01:02]

Broken Promise Land[00:01:14]

There's a town I know[00:01:27]

Has a strange resemblance to Jericho[00:01:29]

Even though[00:01:35]

Seven horns are getting ready to blow[00:01:37]

Coming in under the cover of darkness[00:01:40]

How high shall we build this wall [00:01:44]

Could've said more but it would've seemed heartless[00:01:48]

How tight shall we close that door [00:01:52]

They only claimed to be redeemed[00:01:56]

They take that name and then blaspheme[00:02:00]

It didn't turn out the way we planned[00:02:04]

Now I'm living in[00:02:08]

Broken Promise Land[00:02:09]

Broken Promise Land[00:02:21]

There's a place[00:02:50]

Where infidels and showgirls meet[00:02:51]

Such a disgrace[00:02:57]

Wedding bells crumble in the street[00:03:00]

Coming in under the cover of darkness[00:03:03]

How high shall we build this wall [00:03:07]

I could've said more but it would've seemed heartless[00:03:11]

How tight shall we shut that door [00:03:15]

In the name of the Father and the Son[00:03:19]

In the name of gasoline and a gun[00:03:23]

It didn't turn out the way we planned[00:03:27]

Now I'm living in[00:03:31]

Broken Promise Land[00:03:32]

Broken Promise Land[00:03:44]
