lirik lagu elvis costello & allen toussaint – broken promise land
[verse 1]
there’s a place
where words mean nothing or much less
such a disgrace
we got to get out of this mess
[chorus 1]
coming in under the cover of darkness
how high shall we build this wall?
i could’ve said more but it would’ve seemed heartless
how hard did i slam that door?
[verse 2]
i swore i’d never walk away
until i saw this day
[chorus 2]
it didn’t turn out the way we planned
now i’m living in
broken promise land[x2]
[verse 3]
there’s a town i know
has a strange resemblance to jericho
even though
seven h-rns are getting ready to blow
[chorus 1]
coming in under the cover of darkness
how high shall we build this wall?
i could’ve said more but it would’ve seemed heartless
how tight shall we close that door?
[verse 4]
they only claimed to be redeemed
they take that name and then blaspheme
[chorus 2]
[verse 5]
there’s a place
where infidels and showgirls meet
such a disgrace
wedding bells crumble in the street
[chorus 1]
[outro]
in the name of the father and the son
in the name of gasoline and a gun
it didn’t turn out the way we planned
now i’m living in
broken promise land[x2]
