**lyrics**
Elvis Costello is coming over
With him he will bring Yvette Mimieux
And expect the rest
I'm your latest guest
We will have a party and we'll last all day

President Carter will only drop by
Yes, but don't forget Charles Nelson Reilly
I have passed the test
I'm your latest guest
We will have a meeting and I'll speak all day
We will have a picnic and we'll eat all day
We will have an orgy and we'll (beeeep) all day
We will have a comic and we'll laugh all day
Wе will have a bottle and we'll drink all day
Wе will have a checkbook and we'll buy all day
We will have a combo and we'll dance all day
We will have exhaustion and we'll sleep all day
Tomorrow

It's a, a strange thing
Just a miracle dream
To be at peace with a fling
What if I'm more than crushes?
And moved past more than just lust
To feel it deep inside
Crying out to my trust
It's indescribably pushin' it
My mind is uncertainty
Beside I want a love that's all certain
Beyond a doubt I want to shout it out
I will shout it out to the world
To find a woman with certainty
Being my whole life earnin'
But, my baby, what's burnin'?
Discernin' it comes from the heart
That the mind of the eyes
A dark curtain containin'
Capable collisions of hearts

Here we go (Here we go)
You and I (You and I)
I am me (I am me)
And you are mine (You are mine)
I'mma sing it out (Sing it out)
I play it loud
At the curtain call
Baby, take a bow, whoa
Who knew what (Who knew what)
We all want (We all want)
Is just a simple situation? (Just a simple situation)
I'mma follow my heart (I will follow)
It's led me well (It has led me)
Well, I'm here with you, today

When I first met you, (ooh)
I was so short of breath
I stared like a child who (ooh)
Who was faking as deaf
You smiled and I laughed (ooh)
And you asked me some questions
But baby, all I kept thinkin'
Was taking first kissin' lessons (first kissin' lessons)
Blessings seem to be pourin' (ah)
From right at the start
You searched deep down inside and know to follow your heart (ah)
I followed this path (ah)
It's leading to you
I've arrived at the 'X', baby, tell me what to do (tell me what to do)

Here we go (Here we go)
You and I (You and I)
I am me (I am me)
And you are mine (You are mine)
I'mma sing it out (Sing it out)
I play it loud
At the curtain call
Baby, take a bow, whoa
Who knew what (Who knew what)
We all want (We all want)
Is just a simple situation? (Just a simple situation)
I'mma follow my heart (I will follow)
It's led me well (It has led me)
Well, I'm here with you, today

What does it mean to be a perfect match? (ooh)
I love, I love to be so far from perfect
What does it mean to be a perfect catch? (ooh)
I love, I love, I love to love you lady; never, ever leave me
Believe me (ooh)
I can see we'll be the small seed that grows into the stars
(Ooh) It's a capable collision of hearts, yeah

Here we go (Here we go)
You and I (You and I)
I am me (I am me)
And you are mine (You are mine)
I'mma sing it out (Sing it out)
I play it loud
At the curtain call
Baby, take a bow, whoa
Who knew what (Who knew what)
We all want (We all want)
Is just a simple situation? (Just a simple situation)
I'mma follow my heart (I will follow)
It's led me well (It has led me)
Well, I'm here with you, today

Вы все обречены, возвращайтесь туда, откуда вы пришли. Но помните, бойтесь полной луны, не сбивайтесь с дороги.

Смерть как выздоровление больного,
Смерть как исцеление боли,
Смерть как возрождение жизни,
Смерть как отдых после работы,

Смерть - свобода!

Смерть как источник в пустыне,
Смерть как тепло любимой,
Смерть как дворцы бездомным,
Смерть как хлеб голодным,

Смерть - свобода!

Смерть как свеча в темнице,
Смерть как крылья птице,
Смерть как молоко ребенку,
Смерть как добыча волку,

Смерть - свобода!

Смерть как запах мяты,
Смерть как прощенья виноватому,
Смерть как дорога к дому,
Смерть как радость родному,

Смерть - свобода!

Смерть как невольнику воля,
Смерть как забытое горе,
Смерть как слепому зрение,
Смерть как сердцу биение,

Смерть - свобода!

Смерть как сладостный сон,
Смерть как колокольный звон,
Смерть как вкус мёда,
Смерть как продолжение рода,

Смерть - свобода!

Смерть как наследство батюшки,
Смерть как воля матушки,
Смерть как невезучему везение,
День смерти как день рождения,

Смерть - свобода!
Смерть - свобода!
