Lyrics
After talking in tongues, I began to preach
What falls from the branch is an apple or peach
[Rachel]
舌を出してその場しのぎ
愛らしいその小芝居
未来みたいなシナジー
視線の奥にはまだ無い轍
可愛いと悲しいは紙一重
分からないならその先に飛べ
タイミングは遅かれ早かれ
分からないならそこの神に問え
2つの演技 かける天秤
から回るまでふかすエンジン
僕には無い責任
君の形に塗りつぶしたステンシル
なんだって知ってるし
どこにだって行ける僕たち
It’s the way you make me feel, magnificent hurt
[Mamiko]
これまたまた昔のハナシ
想定外な僕の目をちょろまかし
赤い空の下もうどうすりゃいい
いうなればこれ若気の至り
枝からりんご落ちる時
僕の心もまた落ちこみ
時々分かんなくなる
故に君に夢中全て捧げていた
理解したい
刺激剤を飲んで歩く
君は一歩リードいつだって
いつだって君は僕を笑う
こりゃ見事なほどの痛みだ
It’s the way you make me feel, magnificent hurt
I stood at the door, and I almost went through with it
Tight as the angle of my amen And I swore
どうしようもない
きみがその気にさせる時
振り回されにいってる
笑えよ
どうしようもない
きみがその気にさせた時
痛いよ クセになってる
バカなのはどっち
It’s the way you make me feel, magnificent hurt
I stood at the door, and I almost went through with it
Tight as the angle of my amen
And I swore
どうしようもない
きみがその気にさせる時
振り回されにいってる
笑えよ
美しすぎるきみ
許しはじめた心と身体
もう止まることはない
刺激的さ
ああ痛いな

Elvis Costello and his partner in his first band Rusty, Allan Mayes, have reunited for, as Costello puts it, “the record we would have cut when we were 18, if anyone had let us."
Costello - then, D.P. MacManus - joined Mayes’ band Rusty on New Year's Day 1972, but while for the next twelve months they played dozens of gigs, from almost deserted clubs to one of Liverpool's most beautiful Victorian recital halls and even ventured into the unknown lands, near Widnes, they never made it to the recording studio.
The Resurrection of Rust comprises newly recorded renditions of six songs drawn from Rusty’s 1972 set lists: duets on two 1972, Nick Lowe tunes, “Surrender To The Rhythm” and “Don’t Lose Your Grip On Love,” Kentucky songwriter Jim Ford’s “I’m Ahead If I Can Quit While I’m Behind,” and two originals; “Warm House” (written by D.P. MacManus" in 1971) and “Maureen and Sam" (a musical collaboration by Mayes and MacManus) and, finally, an arrangement incorporating the Neil Young songs “Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere” and “Dance, Dance, Dance", the latter witnessing Costello's debut on the electric violin.

Lyrics:
Bitterly and I went to the door
Hoping cheering on a brief light I know
It never glows, still as long as I walked outside
Turning the corner and out of sight
If I were to be honest, it’s really not that bad
Do I try to be sad?
Break the rules and I might smile tonight
And warm house blows cold out
As I step once more for home
Warm house blows cold out
And it’s so rare to be alone
There’s a man out on the floor and he’s fallen from blow
Well I’m not even sure if he was just a drunken dreamer
Drunken dreamer, I don’t know
Dreaming of the promised land but he doesn’t see below
Did he run from his sight to the side of the night
That came into your possession?
As I slip down the street of the shining light
Does my head keep my feet’s succession?
Is that your last word?
I do not really
Make your reply heard
Will you pray so dearly for an hour of joy
And I’m running running running running running
running running running running running running running
And warm house though blows cold out
As I step once more for home
Warm house though blows cold out
It’s so rare to alone
And I’m running running running running running
running running running running running running running
I turn my eyes from the sights I see
And I need the change to frighten me
And I’m running running running running running running running running
running running running running
In a warm house blows cold out
As I step once more for home

Lyrics
Maureen and Sam will amaze you will songs
That only could come from a star
With a comical dance and a glance from afar
They’re just trying to please and will be if you give them a chance
Oh my God did you hear what they said about the way that I talk?
Hold my head in the air
The lights and the magic have faded away
Maureen and Sam will continue to smile
Though their audience mumble and stumble in the aisle
That first hello and the hasty goodbye
The backdrop is crumbling and dust is all that remains
I dare you to say that I’m cheap and I’m mean
Because you know that it’s me holding the scene in the end
The lights and the magic have faded away
Maureen and Sam never were a success
Though their picture still hangs on the dressing room wall
The glory that comes, the glory that goes
Please don’t you cry and it’s no use to talk
You’re no longer as young as before
And as Maureen lies dying the crowd scream for more
And the drummer still sits in the background waiting for his day to arrive

You can hear more about this ‘Boy’ in a song of the same name.” - Elvis Costello

Lyrics
I’m a lucky so and so
A fortunate stiff
You said you’d never knew me but I’m the one you want to be with
If I tumble from a tightrope or leap from a cliff
I won’t be dashed to pieces
I’m the boy named “IF”
If I disappear and I slipper from your view
I just step upon a crack and I won’t come back
Imagine me
And I’ll imagine you too
In a hollow of the bed sheet
Or a picture in a frame
I’m vivid as a summer’s day
Then never seen again
Who’ll pay the taxman?
Who’ll place the blame?
Who’ll point into an empty room
And whisper my name?
If I disappear and I slipper from your view
You will step upon a crack and I won’t come back
Imagine me
And I’ll imagine you too
Take my hand
We’ll go to “Magic Lantern Land"
Take my hand
See the pictures they’ve projected
Take my hand
We’ll fill our pockets up with sand
Dance in frantic passes
‘Til the grains all turn to glasses
Drums begin to navigate, the band strikes up a riff
No one will believe you but the
Boy Named If
Who’ll pay your entrance fee?
Who’ll leave a tip?
Who’ll say, “Listen here, Sunshine
Don’t you give me no lip”
Who broke your favourite heart?
Who stops and never starts?
Who kiss you stupid?
It must be something you did
Who’ll keep you satisfied after a lover’s tiff?
It must be some other guy not…
The Boy Named If
If I disappear and I slipper from your view
You will step upon a crack and I won’t come back
Imagine me
And I’ll imagine you too
Take my hand
We’ll go to “Magic Lantern Land”
Take my hand
See the pictures we’ve projected
Take my hand
We’ll fill our pockets up with sand
Dance in frantic passes
‘Til the grains all turn to glasses

Lyrics
Farewell, OK
You’ll be on your way
You’ll be on your own now
But to my dismay
I can’t go on
After what you’ve done
There are two words that sound like “prey/pray”
But I’m not going to tell you which one I’m thinking of
Farewell, OK
I thought you’d change
Get a little humble
You strike your strange disposition
Like a drummer hits a cymbal
And rings on in the vicinity
From an instant thrill to infinity
And that doesn’t seem like a sin to me
Farewell, OK
Ran my hand in the rhythm along the ballroom wall
Felt the rumble of the bass through the entrance hall
And the door flung open to a mascara cry
I can’t shake the sound of “How could you or why?”
I can’t get the stain off my hands ever since
From the fake marble pillar past a curtain of chintz
A splatter of steps on a chalk floor pattern
A trim of black lace on a hem of red satin
Goodbye, so long
There’s no right or wrong
This might be the final word I chance in the very last dance
The appeal of the trumpet to a pearl of red laughter
Of lipstick and kisses right here under the rafter
A fumble for heaven in a thimble of draft
And a seldom of Elvis in the velvet hereafter
Farewell, OK, Farewell OK, Farewell, OK

Lyrics
He was the youngest of five and the only son
He called his wife by a nickname as his father had done
Not the root
Not the branch
Not the flower or stem
He had the wildest of dreams but he rarely remembered them
Turn the red rose
Paint the red rose blue
What was he to do?
But turn the red rose
Turn the red rose
Paint the red rose blue
What was he to do?
But turn the red rose
The words that came to him
Both the lies and the threats
They arrived all too easily
But they ran up some debts
From the thunder of a pulpit
To the whispers of a lover
‘Til he found that he couldn’t tell one from the other
Turn the red rose
Paint the red rose blue
What are we to do?
But paint the red rose
Turn the red rose
Paint the red rose blue
What are we to do?
But paint the red rose
He haunted the shadows
And waited until
They had secrets to sell him
And some practical skill
Theatrical blood is convenient to spill
He turned on the light switch and watched her undress
Oh, you’d never guess
What came next, unless
He said “All of these hours that I’ve skulked in the shade
The sun never struck me or made me afraid
Now she and I share unspeakable pain
I have to believe in something, in anything”
Turn the red rose
Paint the red rose blue
There’s nothing left to do but paint the red rose
Paint the red rose
Turn the red rose blue
There’s nothing left to do but paint the red rose blue

Lyrics
After talking in tongues
I began to preach
“What falls from the branch is an apple or peach”
Hold on to me
There’s a Red Alert
It’s the way you make me feel
Magnificent Hurt
I took a little walk
I took another stimulant
I shed a single tear
For my predicament
Don’t act surprised or insolent
It’s the way you make me feel
Magnificent Hurt
When we first met, I knew you were beautiful
You fit like the seat of a blue mohair suit
But the pain that I felt
Let me know I’m alive
And I opened my heart
To the way you make me feel
Magnificent Hurt
I speak low and intimate
Like a cardboard sophisticate
What if this is true love?
Not some town hall certificate
It’s the way you make me feel
Magnificent Hurt
I stood at the door and I almost went through with it
Tight as the angle of my amen
And I swore there and then
As I feign and I flirt
I unbuttoned my shirt
To the way you make me feel
Magnificent Hurt
To the way you make me feel
Magnificent Hurt
It’s the way you make me feel
It’s the way you make me feel
Magnificent

An exciting video from Colombian superstar Juanes. His exhilarating performance of “Pump It Up,” (with its spitfire lyrics now in Spanish) manages to match the same intensity and feel as the original, while Costello’s original backing vocals provide the trademark chorus and an instant familiarity. The video plays on this by transforming Costello’s signature video by rotoscoping the original and inserting Juanes’ head in place of Costello’s to create a playfully updated version that’s a perfect blend of the old and new, that this daring album embodies.

Lyrics/Paroles:
Pas de religion
Pas de philosophie
Des idées des mots en vrac venus d’ailleurs mais pas d’ici
Tu plaisantes peut-être mais ton esprit m’échappe
Je vois pas d’avenir
Mais je vais le sentir
Trop tard pour ce genre d’amour
No flag waving high above
Le vide d’un trou noir où je vis
Pas de dieu pour le damné que je suis
En vue pas d’illusion
Et pas plus d’épiphanie
Je vois pas pourquoi les gens écouteraient même ce que je dis
Elle dit: «j’ai lacéré les draps que ton encre a souillés
Tes pouvoirs dérisoires sont déjà effacés»
Trop tard pour ce genre d’amour
No flag waving high above
Le vide d’un trou noir où je vis
Pas de dieu pour le damné que je suis
Il y a de limite aussi
Chaque nuance a ses conséquences
Comme la vague qui zig zag
Je suis la courbe de la finance
Je peux t’envoyer de vers même des alexandrins
C’est des arbres gaspillés car ils ne valent vraiment rien
Trop tard pour ce genre d’amour
No flag waving high above
Le vide d’un trou noir où je vis
Pas de dieu pour le damné que je suis
Piller c’est facile partager semble inutile
Jetons dans l’espace les gueules qu’on veut pas voir en face
Un coup d’oeil au miroir je vois ce que j’étais
Un truc industriel complètement trafiqué
No flag
No flag

Today sees the debut of “Newspaper Pane”, the fifth release from Elvis Costello’s forthcoming album, ‘Hey Clockface’.
While the previous bulletins from ‘Hey Clockface’ were recorded in Helsinki and Paris - prior to the current emergency - the music for “Newspaper Pane” was written and produced in New York by composer/arranger, Michael Leonhart in collaboration with guitarist Bill Frisell and completed by lyrical verses Costello added from his westward hideout via the miracle of telecommunications.
Trumpet player, Michael Leonhart then punctuated Costello’s vocal with a wonderful horn arrangement, interweaving with Frisell's guitar and the playing of a New York rhythm section.
Costello’s text for “Newspaper Pane” opens with a description of a woman staring at promises of an unattainable life, printed on a sheet of newspaper that she has taped to a broken window pane against the elements. The lyric moves back and forth through time and location to consider a series of fractured pledges, culminating in the declaration:
“When you get where I am now, you may feel differently
The cliff drops away sharply, falls into the sea”
Musicians / Instruments:
Voice: Elvis Costello
Drums, Danelectro baritone guitar, Fender Stratocaster, Univox Minikorg 700 synth, Univox bass, Farfisa Combo organ, Vox Continental Combo organ, trumpet, bass trumpet, trombone & upright piano: Michael Leonhart

Lyrics:
She looked at the pictures on a newspaper pane
That was taped to the window
To keep out the wind
To keep out the rain
To keep out the nonsense
And block out the needing
To keep up her spirits
With improving reading
But the ink from the columns
Dissolved down into the stain
On the bare wood floor
That extended to the door
Pictures of bright futures somehow ignored
That offered her finery she could never afford
Tempting out savings that she didn’t have or could never risk
Not a fashionable kindness, it was grotesque
The beaus with their fiddles played “The Rascal’s Release”
We toasted to valor
And wished there were peace
Six months later in a newspaper margin
They were all cut down in a cavalry charge
Weeping Miss Imogen said to her priest
“I gave him my virtue
It was the least I could leave him
On the eve of departure
Though I will long for him now and hereafter
And the child I’ll be raising may have his blue eyes
What if he grows up and dies
On some distant unnamable hillside or field
Because a king and a concubine put a mark on his shield”
Thomas tomorrow, Thomas no more
Father and sunshine, beyond and before
William who brought his drum home from the war
To beat it for young lads whose days didn’t even add up to a score
I don’t spend my time perfecting the past
I live for the future
Because I know it won’t last
A bent note on a horn I can’t play
The ghosts in the window
That I can’t wish away
Freedom to be reckless
Freedom to plunder
Freedom to dream
Freedom to wonder
When you get where I am now
You may feel differently
The cliff drops away sharply
Falls into the sea
No work today
No hope tomorrow
No bread for breaking
No wine for sorrow
Nobody is selling
No truth for telling
No work tomorrow
No work today
Look at that child bride and her ideal bouquet
Boys, pick up a rifle
That’s too much to pay
Count out her teardrops
Wipe them away

Lyrics:
Hey Clockface
Keep your fingers on the dial
You stole those precious moments
And the kisses from her smile
And now I’m living in these hours
Away we will while
I’m not wasting any more time
Hey Clockface
I really want to know
Why is it when we’re apart
You always take it slow
And when she’s here
You always say “It’s almost time to go”
You said you‘d be a friend to me
But time is just my enemy
And it is hurting me so
The moon comes through the window shining crescently and bright
The sun rolls round again
If I could turn your face back
Before all of this started
Forty minutes past four when her secrets she parted
Forty minutes past four in the faithless A.M
She wound up in his arms and not the man that I am
A spring that is sprung
A cuckoo-bird that sung
Now there’s a nail in a bare wall
Where your face once hung
Hey Clockface
Now I don’t feel a thing
You stole away the heart in me
And then removed my spring
The winding mechanisms shot
The movement is unwound
Don’t tick or tock or dare to make a sound
Hey Clock-face
Well, don’t you ever dare
Count me down to zero hour
And keep me waiting here
A minute from departure
I will twist your key and have her come back to me
And have her come back to me
How can you face me?
After what I’ve been through
After you broke that vow
How can you face me now?
How can you face me now?
How can you face me now?

Lyrics:
Time has taught us
That they’re sending out their sons
To take away our guns and our daughters
We are all cowards now
Rivers rising
Darkness fell upon
People blotting out the sun
Disguising how
We are all cowards now
At least the Emperor Nero had an ear for music
But that’s history
Caligula said “God’s speed, my steed”
But that’s his story
They’re coming for our Peacemakers
Our Winchesters and Colts
The rattle of our Gatling Guns
Our best cowboy revolts and threats and insults
We are all cowards now
The emptiness of arms
The openness of thighs
The pornography of bullets
The promises and prizes can’t disguise
We are all cowards now
They're draping stones with colours
And a roll of stolen names
Except those we never cared about
And those we need to blame
We’ll extinguish that flame, just the same
We are all cowards now
Arms are empty
The pornography of plenty
Count commands from one to ten
Number sins from ten to twenty
There’s an illusion we believe in
There is honour in their need
Pretty confetti, chemical debt
And a necessity to bleed
My fears too fleet to scupper
My prayers too thin to scream
On my lover's back a zipper
On her limb a straightened seam
So, close the windows tightly
Lower lamps and shades
On the screen, silent rehearsals
For tomorrow's parades
For tomorrow's parades
For tomorrow's parades
We are all cowards now

Lyrics:
Hetty said if you ask me nicely
I'll write you up well
Don't tell me twice
Or quote you directly
Or you'll pay the price
I'll peel off your skin like a thin veneer
If someone tells me something that I didn't hear from you
Who's got the dope?
Who's got the potential?
Hetty O'Hara Confidential
Those were different days
Those were different drugs
From a gold-plated palace with the half-mast flags
To a chalk lined body that was full of slugs
She was trading favors for footnote plugs
Who's got the needle?
Who is fit to burst?
A morphine tattoo on an unquenchable thirst
Who's got your girlfriend?
And who had her first?
Reading her column was essential
Hetty O'Hara Confidential
She could kill a man with a single stroke
She is not the one you want to provoke
If you can't take the heat
Or you can't take a joke
Who's got the dope?
Who's got the potential?
Hetty O'Hara Confidential
If there was a gentleman caller
To a comely wench
And a snooping peeper
In a coat of trench
She'd place a line or two
At the foot of the page
A cue or a clue
To the latest rage
With your true dimensions
And your actual age
Trade a life of scandal
For a career on the stage
These little things seem inconsequential
Except to Hetty O'Hara Confidential
On the night he came home
From the debutante ball
Passed out drunk on the bathroom floor
Call-girl called after taking a peek
At the secret drawer of atomic secrets
Repeating something that I whispered about
They have to take it
But they can't dish it out
Who's cleaning up his act?
And breaking the bank?
But unfortunately didn't remember to thank me
But now the rumor is doing the rounds
That his only friends
Are villains and scoundrels
Her reputation curled like yellow smoke
She named the wrong man in the story she broke
She had an unfortunate character trait
The irresistible impulse to assassinate
But the damage she did was quite substantial
Hetty O'Hara Confidential
They've got witch trials now
With witches to spare
And a jukebox jury full of judgement and fury
With bright neon dresses and porn star hair
She was thrown to the wolves
Or the dogs or the foxes
Once they'd had their fill of shares and stocks
Their gaze is unforgiving
If your morals are lax
Pointing manicured fingers and making a mockery
With voices that sound like broken crockery
Hetty said ""I'm powerless and I feel alone...""
Now everyone has a megaphone
Who's got the dope?
Who's got the potential?
Hetty O'Hara Confidential
