The Delivery Man - Elvis Costello (埃尔维斯 科斯特洛)/The Imposters[00:00:00]

Written by：Elvis Costello[00:00:00]

Was able so Vivian said[00:00:00]

Her shoulders flung forward[00:00:04]

Her lips in a purse[00:00:07]

She talks like the beauty that she never was[00:00:11]

Of the fabulous wild nights that she never has[00:00:17]

In a certain light he looked like Elvis[00:00:23]

In a certain way he feels like Jesus[00:00:29]

Everyone dreams of him just as they can[00:00:35]

But he's only the humble delivery man[00:00:41]

Geraldine blushes and brushes away[00:01:01]

The cigarette ashes that Vivian scatters[00:01:07]

Stares out of the window at the things that she says[00:01:14]

While gossip within her competes with the widow[00:01:20]

Ever since he's gone she feels like crying all the time[00:01:26]

She knows for sure Vivian is lying[00:01:31]

Now she has a daughter to raise as she can[00:01:37]

But she just wouldn't trust that delivery man[00:01:43]

Ivy puts down the ghost story she's reading[00:01:53]

Looks up at that face on the wall[00:01:58]

Thinking about how her father lay bleeding[00:02:03]

Shot in the back 'cos orders were misleading[00:02:08]

How a flag and a medal don't have any meaning[00:02:13]

On the 5th of July as they tore down the fair[00:02:20]

And he'd seen all the local girls who were worth kissing[00:02:27]

With the smell of the gunpowder still in the air[00:02:33]

They noticed that Abel and Ivy were missing[00:02:40]

In a certain light he looked like Elvis[00:02:46]

In a certain way he seemed like Jesus[00:02:51]

He said why can't you be kind to me like you were meant to be[00:02:57]

When they let me out I had a brand new identity[00:03:04]

Now everyone dreams of me just as they can[00:03:10]

I want to be your delivery man[00:03:17]

In a certain light he looked like Elvis[00:03:28]

In a certain way he seemed like Jesus[00:03:33]

In a certain light he looked like Elvis[00:03:38]

In a certain way he seemed like Jesus[00:03:44]

In a certain light he looked like Elvis[00:03:49]

In a certain way he feels like Jesus[00:03:54]
