Elvis Costello

Elvis Costello (born Declan Patrick MacManus, 25 August 1954) is an English singer-songwriter. He began his career as part of London's pub rock scene in the early 1970s and later became associated with the first wave of the British punk/New Wave movement of the mid-to-late 1970s. Steeped in word play, the vocabulary of Costello's lyrics is broader than that of most popular songs. His music has drawn on many diverse genres; one critic described him as a "pop encyclopaedia", able to "reinvent the past in his own image". more »

I remember that dance 
On the roof of my car 
When St. Lucy's mad torch 
Took away our best bar 

Say we drank 
And we prayed 
Some just sat like a choir 
Came the smoke 
In the night 
Came the heat 
Came the fire 

Ember glow lagered ash 
I was pissed as a fart 
Stricken some dumb plum numb 
We was broken at heart 

Say we drank 
And we prayed 
Some just sat like a choir 
Came the smoke 
In the night 
Came the light 
Came the fire
