lirik lagu elvis costello - tommy's coming home
[verse 1]
she was counting out the window of the outbound train
all the poles of the telegraph
and the rock-a-bye rhythm in the song of the rails
couldn’t make the sweeper laugh
[chorus]
down, down, down so deep
down, down drowning in his sleep
tommy’s coming home again
[verse 2]
and a hawk hovered high above a skinny jackrabbit
pursued by a hungry fox
and a broker awoke her from a fitful slumber
then consulted his shares and his stocks
[chorus]
down, down, down they go
down, down how he’ll never know
tommy’s coming home again
and it’s almost april fools’ day
[verse 3]
as he glanced on his paper looking through the veil
he could see she was really upset
as she tucked back the ribbon in a velvet box
as he offered her a cigarette
[chorus]
[verse 4]
almost april fools’ day
and the joke’s on everyone
he had that premonition
only dead men dwell upon
how could he know that only twelve months later
she would wear her skirt up over her knee
and in the very same carriage she’d be flattered with roses
and forget the tears of picardy
[chorus]
[verse 5]
almost april fools’ day
and the joke’s on everyone
he had that premonition
only dead men dwell upon
[outro]
tommy’s coming home again[x2]
tommy’s coming home
