Elvis Costello & The Attractions - Текст песни Tokyo Storm Warning
And the sky fell over cheap
 Korean monster movie scenery
 And spilled into the mezzanine
 Of the crushed capsule hotel
 Between the Disney abattoir
 And the chemical refinery
 And I knew I was in trouble
 But I thought I was in Hell
 So you look around the tiny room
 And you wonder, where the hell you are
 While the K.K.K. convention
 Are all stranded in the bar
 They wear hoods and carry shotguns
 In the main streets of Montgomery
 But they're helpless here as babies
 'Cause they're only here on holiday
 What do we care if the world is a joke?
 (Tokyo storm warning)
 We'll give it a big kiss, we'll give it a poke
 (Tokyo storm warning)
 Death wears a big hat 'cause he's a big bloke
 (Tokyo storm warning)
 We're only living this instant
 With the black sand stuck beneath her feet
 In a warm Sorrento sunrise
 A barefoot girl from Naples
 Or was it a Barcelona high-rise
 Whistles out the tuneless theme song
 All the hundred cheap suggestions
 And a million false seductions
 And all those eternal questions, well
 What do we care if the world is a joke?
 (Tokyo storm warning)
 We'll give it a big kiss, we'll give it a poke
 (Tokyo storm warning)
 Death wears a big hat 'cause he's a big bloke
 (Tokyo storm warning)
 We're only living this instant
 So they flew the Super-Constellation
 All the way from Rimini
 And feasted them on fish and chips
 From a newspaper facsimile
 Now dead Italian tourists bodies
 Litter up the Broadway
 Some people can't be told, you know
 They have to learn the hard way
 Holidays are dirt-cheap
 In the Costa Del Malvinas
 In the Hotel Argentina
 They can hardly tell between us

 Though she's now known as Juanita
 In a tango bar in Stanley
 Or in Puerto Margarita
 She's the sweetest and the sauciest
 The loveliest and naughtiest
 She's Miss Buenos Aires
 In a world of lacy lingerie
 What do we care if the world is a joke?
 (Tokyo storm warning)
 We'll give it a big kiss, we'll give it a poke
 (Tokyo storm warning)
 Death wears a big hat, 'cause he's a big bloke
 (Tokyo storm warning)
 We're only living this instant
 Japanese God
 Jesus robots telling teenage fortunes
 For all we know and all we care
 They might as well be Martians
 They say gold paint on the palace gates
 Comes from the teeth of pensioners
 They're so tired of shooting protest singers
 That they hardly mention us
 While fountains fill with second hand perfume
 And sodden trading stamps
 They'll hang the bullies and the louts
 That dampen down the day
 What do we care if the world is a joke?
 (Tokyo storm warning)
 We'll give it a big kiss, we'll give it a poke
 (Tokyo storm warning)
 Death wears a big hat 'cause he's a big bloke
 (Tokyo storm warning)
 We're only living this instant, hey
 We braved the cold November air
 And the undertaker's curses
 Singing, "Take me to the Folies Bergere
 And please don't spare the hearses"
 For he always had a dream
 Of that revolver in your purse
 How you loved him till you hated him
 And made him cry for mercy
 He said, "Don't ever mention my name there
 Or talk of all the nights you cried
 We've always been like worlds apart
 Now you're seeing two nightmares collide"
 What do we care if the world is a joke?
 (Tokyo storm warning)
 We'll give it a big kiss, we'll give it a poke
 (Tokyo storm warning)
 Death wears a big hat, 'cause he's a big bloke
 (Tokyo storm warning)
 We're only living this instant
