poison moon- elvis costello

[@TutshillTornados]

In my opinion it's his most beautiful song by far, one of my favourites overall.

[@dFuidhfoDFJdf]

Cut loose in a nightmare, cast off in my dreams If home is anywhere that I can hang my hat Then it's coming apart at the seams My luck is hanging upside down I try to hold on tight But money's rolling out of town And love slips right out of sight And these bones, they don't look so good to me Jokers talk and they all disagree One day soon, I will laugh right in the face of the poison moon You look in the mirror I'm sorry, but it can't be replaced You're thrown straight out in that cruel parade Buttoned down and laced It starts like fascination, it ends up like a trance You've gotta use your imagination on some of that magazine romance And these bones - they don't look so good to me Jokers talk and they all disagree One day soon, I will laugh right in the face of the poison moon One day soon, I will laugh right in the face of the poison moon

I love this song. Thank God I got into Elvis Costello.

I've never heard this one before. It's always cool hearing how some of his lyrics started their life - I've heard that "Starts like fascination, ends up like a trance" in Party Girl off the Armed Forces album.

My funeral song, then on to heaven.

He definitely knew how to use punk to his advantage!

[@charlyW34]

Is this from the Flip City era, or just after? Tremendous tune, all the talent is already evident.

CD Reissue Bonus Track.

[@skidrat55]

My favorite song to sing in the shower

[@QuakerPop]

One of them. Cheap rewards from ec is also a good one. Also trying to get to heaven from Bob Dylan

[@samdoherty2284]

A little reminded of ‘Her Majesty’ by The Beatles (just Paul McCartney), on Abbey Road

Huge fan of Mr Costello but never heard this song before? Is it a song about a guy that just can't catch a break?
