Episode Of Blonde (Album Version) - Elvis Costello[00:00:00]

Written By：Elvis Coste[00:00:02]

I spy for the Spirit of Curiousity[00:00:08]

All the scandals of each vain monstrosity[00:00:12]

I gossip and I pry and I insinuate[00:00:16]

If the failure is great[00:00:19]

Then it tends to fascinate[00:00:21]

A tornado dropped a funnel cloud with twenty tons of rain[00:00:23]

Though she had the attention span of warm cellophane[00:00:27]

Her lovers fell like skittles in a 10-pin bowling lane[00:00:31]

But nothing could compare with that explosion of fame[00:00:35]

So you jumped back with alarm[00:00:39]

Every Elvis has his army[00:00:42]

Every rattlesnake its charm[00:00:44]

Can you still hear me[00:00:46]

Am I coming through just fine[00:00:48]

Your memory was buried in a simple box of pine[00:00:50]

Did her green eyes seduce you and make you get so weak[00:00:53]

Was there fire engine red that she left upon your cheek[00:01:01]

It's such a shame you had to break the heart[00:01:08]

You could have counted on but the last thing you need is another[00:01:13]

Episode of blonde[00:01:23]

Revolving like a jeweller's figure on a music box[00:01:25]

Spangled curtain parted and a night-club scene unlocks[00:01:28]

Pinned and fixed and fastened in a follow spot[00:01:32]

Arms thrown out to everyone she's giving all she's got[00:01:35]

To the last gasp of a wounded bandeon[00:01:40]

Tiny man imploring to the cieling fan[00:01:43]

This stolen feeling[00:01:46]

Amplified up through a busted speaker[00:01:47]

Blaring blasting advertising distorted beyond reason[00:01:50]

Into the street where petty crime-coats shadow panic drunkards[00:01:55]

Half out of the taxi cab the barker seized my elbow[00:01:59]

He thought I was another lonely likely pilgrim looking for St Telmo[00:02:02]

Did her green eyes seduce you and make you get so weak[00:02:09]

Was there fire engine red that she left upon your cheek[00:02:17]

It's such a shame you had to break the heart[00:02:24]

You could have counted on but the last thing you need is another[00:02:29]

Episode of blonde[00:02:39]

I tried to keep a straight face but you know it never pays[00:02:41]

He would stare into those eyes and then vacation in her gaze[00:02:44]

She was a cute little ruin that he pulled out of the rubble[00:02:48]

Noe they are both living in a soft soap bubble[00:02:52]

The film producer's contemplating entertaining suicide[00:02:56]

The picture crumpled in his fist his run away child bride[00:03:00]

The timepiece stretched across a wrist[00:03:03]

She couldn't care less cast aside[00:03:05]

The scent that so repelled him that he swore insecticide[00:03:07]

And there's a farewell note to mother[00:03:11]

That will conclude Your loving Son[00:03:14]

Oh tell your other children not to do as I have done[00:03:18]

Did her green eyes seduce you and make you get so weak[00:03:26]

Was there fire engine red that she left upon your cheek[00:03:33]

It's such a shame[00:03:41]

It's such a shame[00:03:44]

Shame[00:03:46]

Shame[00:03:47]

A shame you had to break the heart[00:03:49]

You could have counted on[00:03:52]

But the last thing you need[00:03:56]

The last thing you want is another[00:04:00]

Episode of blonde[00:04:06]

Is another[00:04:12]

Episode of blonde[00:04:14]

Is another[00:04:20]

Episode of blonde[00:04:21]

So an artist drags a toothbrush across the first thing that he sees[00:04:23]

And names the painting Christ's Last Exit into Purgatory[00:04:27]

Receiving secret messages from an alien intelligence[00:04:31]

Paying off his stalker it's a legitimate expense[00:04:35]

So paste up pictures of those shrill and hollow girls[00:04:39]

With puckered lips[00:04:41]

She's a trophy on your arm[00:04:42]

A magnet for your money clip[00:04:44]

The moral of this story is the sorry tale to say[00:04:46]
