<pre><font size='+2'>MISCHIEVOUS GHOST lyrics ELVIS COSTELLO</font><br>She came dancing right before my eyes<br />
<br />
She said shed came to warn me<br />
<br />
Before it dawned on me<br />
<br />
I went walking on the blank hillside<br />
<br />
Where the sunset falls<br />
<br />
Where the sunset dies<br />
<br />
She gave me love, she told me lies<br />
<br />
That most mischievous ghost<br />
<br />
She was in disguise, she was in disguise, she was in disguise.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
He started to whistle, they bought him a flute<br />
<br />
He was talking in tongues, they swore he was mute<br />
<br />
He scoffed and blasphemed, they said it was beautiful<br />
<br />
Busted a button, they bought him a suitcase full<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
They coloured him cricket and laced him up tight<br />
<br />
As he drew on their days resurrected his nights<br />
<br />
He raved in the dark, he went out in a blaze<br />
<br />
"there you go," they said, "hes good for nothing and lazy"<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
With scandal and shame they slandered his name<br />
<br />
They told him to freeze, they damned him to roast<br />
<br />
Disappointed that he passed away peacefully<br />
<br />
Never [trying/dying] to be a mischievous ghost<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
They dug him up quick with a polish and lick<br />
<br />
They powdered him up till he only looked sick<br />
<br />
The hinge in his backbone would bend to applause<br />
<br />
But his dancing was not quite as lively of course<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
These are the rewards immortality affords<br />
<br />
Bullied and bribed and beaten to bliss<br />
<br />
[harrington slacks/harrods in slacks] and tormental laments<br />
<br />
Of going away and not being missed<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
With scandal and shame they slandered his name<br />
<br />
They told him to freeze, they damned him to roast<br />
<br />
Disappointed that he passed away peacefully<br />
<br />
Never dying to be a mischievous ghost<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
With the green beer and the shamrock tattoos<br />
<br />
Singing his songs of the battles we lose<br />
<br />
And [when/will] you come home again so we can murder you<br />
<br />
What would you do if they took his word<br />
<br />
With forty-eight million to join in the toast<br />
<br />
Move over my darling<br />
<br />
Mischievous ghost<br />

She came dancing right before my eyes

She said shed came to warn me

Before it dawned on me

I went walking on the blank hillside

Where the sunset falls

Where the sunset dies

She gave me love, she told me lies

That most mischievous ghost

She was in disguise, she was in disguise, she was in disguise.

He started to whistle, they bought him a flute

He was talking in tongues, they swore he was mute

He scoffed and blasphemed, they said it was beautiful

Busted a button, they bought him a suitcase full

They coloured him cricket and laced him up tight

As he drew on their days resurrected his nights

He raved in the dark, he went out in a blaze

"there you go," they said, "hes good for nothing and lazy"

With scandal and shame they slandered his name

They told him to freeze, they damned him to roast

Disappointed that he passed away peacefully

Never [trying/dying] to be a mischievous ghost

They dug him up quick with a polish and lick

They powdered him up till he only looked sick

The hinge in his backbone would bend to applause

But his dancing was not quite as lively of course

These are the rewards immortality affords

Bullied and bribed and beaten to bliss

[harrington slacks/harrods in slacks] and tormental laments

Of going away and not being missed

With scandal and shame they slandered his name

They told him to freeze, they damned him to roast

Disappointed that he passed away peacefully

Never dying to be a mischievous ghost

With the green beer and the shamrock tattoos

Singing his songs of the battles we lose

And [when/will] you come home again so we can murder you

What would you do if they took his word

With forty-eight million to join in the toast

Move over my darling
