Turpentine (Album Version) - Elvis Costello[00:00:00]

I can't tell if this is real[00:00:19]

Or if I am sleeping[00:00:21]

I'll embroider the truth and[00:00:27]

That's so I shall reap[00:00:30]

I took things that[00:00:36]

Didn't belong to me[00:00:37]

I didn't mean[00:00:40]

To do you wrong[00:00:42]

Looking back on all that stolen time[00:00:45]

Back when I was drinking turpentine[00:00:49]

Don't blame me[00:00:54]

I only took you in[00:00:55]

It takes time to do the poisoning[00:00:59]

So let's close the door on this and lock it[00:01:02]

And that's all it will ever be[00:01:12]

Just an accident of chemistry[00:01:16]

You did everything to me[00:01:25]

But stopped short of murder[00:01:28]

Couldn't move me much closer to keeping my word[00:01:34]

While the crowds threw stones at the hangman[00:01:43]

The sky fell down[00:01:47]

The bells rang[00:01:48]

Looking back on all that stolen time[00:01:51]

Back when I was drinking turpentine[00:01:56]

Don't blame me I only took you in[00:02:00]

It takes time to do the poisoning[00:02:05]

So let's close the door on this and lock it[00:02:09]

And that's all that it will ever be[00:02:18]

Just an accident of chemistry[00:02:23]

Airless shaft of an underground railway[00:02:36]

Effete assassin with a hawk in a sack[00:02:41]

The earth will offer us in when our hearts fail[00:02:45]

As it swallows the river running under the track[00:02:49]

Under the track yeah[00:02:54]

I can't tell if I'm dreaming or[00:03:01]

If I'll awaken[00:03:04]

With a song in my heart[00:03:10]

That is longing to break[00:03:12]

Let it out and let it fly high[00:03:19]

Up where the spires scrape the sky[00:03:23]

Looking back on all that stolen time[00:03:27]

Back when I was drinking turpentine[00:03:32]

Don't blame me I only took you in[00:03:36]

It takes time to do the poisoning[00:03:41]

So let's close the door on this and lock it[00:03:46]

And that's all that it will ever be[00:03:54]

Just an accident of history yeah[00:03:59]

Airless shaft of an underground railway[00:04:31]

Cute assassin with a hawk in a sack[00:04:39]

The earth will offer us in when our hearts fail[00:04:48]

Swallowed the river running under the track[00:04:57]

That's right[00:05:05]
