Elvis Costello - Dirty Rotten Shame текст песни

Текст
I recall the good old days

But thankfully, theyve gone

Now the ponies all are broken nags

That stumble as they groan

And throw the jockeys from their throne

When there are pitches left to dodge

And lions left to tame

But its nothing but a dirty rotten shame

Its a dirty rotten shame

That when youre frivolous and strong

It isnt youth, its fearlessness

That has been wasted on the young

The cruel are in the cradle

And the bishops in the bag

Its nothing but a dirty rotten shame

Now I find life a millionaire

That brags for rags and jewels

A snarling pup is wild enough

But as his anger proves

Hes left to sharpen useless tools

That tear and graze and finer phrase

But few are worth the name

Its nothing but a dirty rotten shame

Its a dirty rotten shame

And that is not an idle boast

When all your courage and your strength

Will leave you as you need it most

When there are lamps to dampen

And cauliflowers to flip

Its nothing but a dirty rotten shame
