Elvis Costello - Peace In Our Time Lyrics

Font:

Align:

Out of the aeroplane stepped chamberlain with a condemned mans stare

But we all cheered wildly, a photograph was taken,

As he waved a piece of paper in the air

Now the disco machine lives in munich and we are all friends

And I slip on my italian dancing shoes as the evening descends

And the bells take their toll once again in victory chime

And we can thank God that weve finally got

Peace in our time

Theres a man going round taking names no

Matter who you claim to be

As innocent as babies, a mad dog with rabies,

Youre still a part of some conspiracy

Meanwhile theres a light over the ocean

Burning brighter than the sun

And a man sits alone in a bar and says oh god,

What have we done?

Chorus

Theyre lighting a bonfire upon every hilltop in the land

Just another tiny island invaded when hes got

The whole world in his hands

And the heavyweight champion fights in the

International propaganda star wars

Theres already one spaceman in the white

House what do you want another one for?

Chorus
