God's Comic - Elvis Costello (埃尔维斯 科斯特洛)

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

Now I'm dead now I'm dead now I'm dead

Now I'm dead dead dead

And I'm going on to meet my reward

I was scared I was scared I was scared I was scared

Dead dead

He might of never heard God's Comic

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

Now I'm dead now I'm dead now I'm dead

Now I'm dead dead

And I'm going on to meet my reward

I was scared I was scared I was scared I was scared

Dead dead

He might of never heard God's Comic

I'm going to take a little trip

Down Paradise's endless shores

They say that travel broadens the mind

'Til 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

Now I'm dead now I'm dead now I'm dead

Now I'm dead dead and you're all

Going on to meet your reward

Are you scared

Are you scared

Are you scared

Are you scared

Dead dead

You might have never heard but God's comic
