Elvis Costello - Dissolve Lyrics
Sugar cube drop into a yellow cup, what makes
The world just waking up resolve? Dissolve
Who knows where on earth it's going to stop?
I can't hear you 'cos we're breaking up, dissolve
And the stones in the track make work for the mechanic
The birds all fly from the branches in a panic
And a back-fire echoes down the hillside
As the last headline report dies, dissolve
Ice is melting at the distant pole
The gin and tonic gla*ses overflow, dissolve
The precious little else that I could say
Your stupid tears of laughter washed away, dissolve
While the poisonous light pours from the picture palace
And it flickers on, tries so hard to be scandalous
A child keeps beating on a toy drum
And the tablets dropped on your tongue, dissolve
So salute me in moving frame
I might not be there when you look again
The mourning border card behind the clock
The hour that he pa*sed, unwound and stopped, dissolve
