elvis costello - god's comic كلمات الأغنية

[verse 1]
i wish you’d known me when i was alive, i was
a funny feller
the crowd would hoot and holler for more
i wore a drunk’s red nose for applause
oh yes i was a comical priest
“with a joke for the flock and a hand up your
fleece”
drooling the drink and the lipstick and
greasepaint
down the cardboard front of my dirty dog-collar

[chorus]
now i’m dead [x5]
and i’m going on to meet my reward
i was scared [x4]
he might have never heard god’s comic

[verse 2]
so there he was on a water-bed
drinking a cola of a mystery brand
reading an airport novelette, listening to
andrew lloyd-webber’s “requiem”
he said, before it had really begun, “i prefer
the one about my son”
“i’ve been wading through all this unbelievable
junk and wondering if i should have given
the world to the monkeys”

[chorus]

[verse 3]
i’m going to take a little trip down paradise’s
endless sh0r-s
they say that travel broadens the mind, till you
can’t get your head out of doors
i’m sitting here on the top of the world
i hang around in the longest night
until each beast has gone bed and then i say
“god bless” and turn out the light
while you lie in the dark, afraid to breathe and
you beg and you promise
and you bargain and you plead
sometimes you confuse me with santa claus
it’s the big white beard i suppose
i’m going up to the pole, where you folks die of cold
i might be gone for a while if you need me

[chorus]
