Dust 2 ... (Album Version) - Elvis Costello[00:00:00]

Written By：Elvis Coste[00:00:02]

If dust could only talk[00:00:15]

What would we hear it say[00:00:17]

Before it's brushed aside[00:00:19]

Just as it's swept away[00:00:21]

It's just the evidence[00:00:23]

It's of no consequence[00:00:25]

It's only flesh and bone[00:00:27]

Why don't you leave it alone[00:00:28]

If dust could only speak[00:00:30]

Caught in a falling beam[00:00:32]

If dust could only cry[00:00:34]

If dust could only scream[00:00:36]

For it's the single witness that might testify[00:00:40]

Could I spit out the truth[00:00:47]

Or would you rather just swallow a lie[00:00:48]

But dust is always caught beneath a coat of pain[00:01:00]

Beneath the marble fingernails of kings and saints[00:01:04]

And in the theatre curtain where they hang a drape[00:01:08]

Or in the ticket pocket where your hands escape[00:01:12]

Before they start to wander[00:01:16]

Or they start to shrink[00:01:18]

You rub your eye a little and appear to blink[00:01:22]

And then she caught you staring[00:01:28]

She knows what you're thinking[00:01:30]

What got into you is not a ghost as such[00:01:34]

It was just dust[00:01:37]

Here comes the juggernaut[00:02:01]

Here come The Poisoners[00:02:03]

They choke the life and land[00:02:05]

And rob the joy from us[00:02:07]

Why do they taste of sugar[00:02:09]

Oh when they're made of money[00:02:11]

Here come the Lamb of God[00:02:13]

And the butcher's boy Sonny[00:02:15]

Well I believe we just[00:02:58]

Become a speck of dust[00:03:00]

Well I believe we just[00:03:06]

Become a speck of dust[00:03:08]

Well I believe we just[00:03:14]

Become a speck of dust[00:03:16]
