Elvis Costello

Come The Meantimes

What are you going to say to me?

Will you be betraying me?

Come The Meantimes

Will you be deceiving me?

And beyond believing in me?

Come The Meantimes

He came back, (right back)

And nobody blinked

He came back, (right back)

At least I think that he did

He came back, (right back)

And he ran and he hid

And he muttered and moaned

And said "Let's go get stoned"

Will you be denying me?

Will you still come crying to me

Come The Meantimes

Are you still obeying me?

Will you still be praying to me?

Come The Meantimes

Will you sit in judgment then?

Be the first one to condemn

Come The Meantimes

Now you've got nobody else to blame

And trouble remembering my name

Will you still be cursing me

Come my anniversary

Come The Meantimes

He came back, (right back)

And they followed and failed

He came back, (right back)

He got hammered and nailed

He came back, (right back)

And he wandered alone

They said let's gather some stones

And make them atone

Now I'm in a hall of mirrors

With my secret thoughts and terrors

Come The Meantimes

And I'm drinking to your health

Find I'm only talking to myself

Come The Meantimes

He came back, (right back)

And nobody blinked

He came back, (right back)

At least I think that he did

He came back, (right back)

Then he ran and he hid

And he muttered and moaned

And said "Let's go get stoned"

Blossoms fragrant opening

Poppies full of opium

Come The Meantimes

Phony prophets offer hope

That's a different kind of dope

Come The Meantimes

Right now!

Right now!

Right now!

Gather some stones and make them atone

Come The Meantimes

(Let's go get stoned)

Come The Meantimes
