作词 : Costello | |
Outside my window | |
Not long before sleep arrives | |
They come with their sirens | |
And they sweep away all the boys | |
Busy draining the joy from their lives | |
They never said their prayers out loud | |
And while i'm dreaming | |
There's a passing motor car | |
That broadcasts a popular song | |
And a girl appears to be saying | |
'do you think that i'm going to go far?' | |
First chorus: | |
Just look at me | |
I'm having the time of my life | |
Or something quite like it | |
When i'm walking out and about | |
In london's brilliant parade | |
She's one of those girls that you just can't place | |
You feel guilty desiring such an innocent face | |
But of course they knew that when they cast her | |
Along with the red routemaster | |
And the film takes place in an mgb | |
And a perfect re-creation of 'the speakeasy' | |
Everybody looks happy and twisted | |
Though she probably never existed | |
For old times' sake | |
Don't let me awake | |
I wouldn't want you to walk across hungerford bridge | |
Especially at twilight | |
Looking through the bolts and the girders | |
Into the water below | |
You'll never find your answer there | |
They sounded the 'all-clear' in the occidental bazaar | |
They used to call oxford street | |
Now the bankrupt souls in the city | |
Are finally tasting defeat | |
Second chorus: | |
Don't look at me | |
I'm having the time of my life | |
Or something quite like it | |
When i'm walking out and about | |
In london's brilliant parade | |
When i'm walking out and about | |
In london's brilliant parade | |
From the gates of st. mary's, there were horses in olympia | |
And a trolley bus in fulham broadway | |
The lions and the tigers in regents park | |
Couldn't pay their way | |
And now they're not the only ones | |
At the hammersmith palais | |
In kensington and camden town | |
There's a part that i used to play; | |
The lovely diorama is really part of the drama, i'd say | |
[2x] | First chorus |
