Poison Moon Lyrics by Elvis Costello

Poison Moon Lyrics

    Cut loose in a nightmare, cast off in my dreams
    If home is anywhere that i can hang my hat
    Then it's coming apart at the seams
    My luck is hanging upside down
    I try to hold on tight
    But money's rolling out of town
    And love slips right out of sight

    And these bones, they don't look so good to me
    Jokers talk and they all disagree
    One day soon, i will laugh right in the face of the poison moon

    You look in the mirror
    I'm sorry, but it can't be replaced
    You're thrown straight out in that cruel parade
    Buttoned down and laced
    It starts like fascination, it ends up like a trance
    You've gotta use your imagination on some of that magazine romance

    And these bones--they don't look so good to me
    Jokers talk and they all disagree
    One day soon, i will laugh right in the face of the poison moon
    One day soon, i will laugh right in the face of the poison moon
