Country Darkness

Elvis Costello

[Verse 1]
This tattered document
A mystery you can solve
Some burnt out filament
Flies buzzing around the bulb
Country darkness

[Verse 2]
He thought of traveling
Heard an approaching train
Drown out his desperate pulse
A song with no refrain
Country darkness
Oh oh oh oh

[Bridge]
She daydreams of forbidden sins
There must be something more
The prison she lives in
The one with the open door

[Verse 3]
A veil is covering
A glistening cruel blade
Suffer little children
Repent, unfaithful maid
Country darkness
Country darkness
Country darkness
Oh oh oh oh

[Bridge]
She daydreams of forbidden sins
There must be something more
The prison she lives in
The one with the open door

[Verse 3]
A veil is covering
A glistening cruel blade
Suffer little children
Repent, unfaithful maid
Country darkness
Country darkness
Country darkness
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
