Elvis Costello, The Roots - Come The Meantimes

What are you going to say to me
Will you be betraying me
Come The Meantimes
Will you be deceiving me
And beyond believing in me
Come The Meantimes
He came back right back
And nobody blinked
He came back right back
At least I think that he did
He came back right back
And he ran and he hid
And he muttered and moaned
And said Let’s go get stoned
Will you be denying me
Will you still come crying to me
Come The Meantimes
Are you still obeying me
Will you still be praying to me
Come The Meantimes
Will you sit in judgment then
Be the first one to condemn
Come The Meantimes

Now you've got nobody else to blame
And trouble remembering my name
Will you still be cursing me
Come my anniversary
Come The Meantimes
He came back right back
And they followed and failed
He came back right back
He got hammered and nailed
He came back right back
And he wandered alone
They said let's gather some stones
And make them atone
Now I'm in a hall of mirrors
With my secret thoughts and terrors
Come The Meantimes
And I’m drinking to your health
Find I’m only talking to myself
Come The Meantimes
He came back right back
And nobody blinked
He came back right back
At least I think that he did
He came back right back
Then he ran and he hid
And he muttered and moaned
And said Let’s go get stoned
Blossoms fragrant opening
Poppies full of opium
Come The Meantimes
Phony prophets offer hope
That’s a different kind of dope
Come The Meantimes
Right now
Right now
Right now
Gather some stones and make them atone
Come The Meantimes
Let’s go get stoned
Come The Meantimes
What are you going to say to me
Will you be betraying me
Come The Meantimes
Will you be deceiving me
And beyond believing in me
Come The Meantimes
He came back right back
And nobody blinked
He came back right back
At least I think that he did
He came back right back
And he ran and he hid
And he muttered and moaned
And said Let’s go get stoned
Will you be denying me
Will you still come crying to me
Come The Meantimes
Are you still obeying me
Will you still be praying to me
Come The Meantimes
Will you sit in judgment then
Be the first one to condemn
Come The Meantimes

Now you've got nobody else to blame
And trouble remembering my name
Will you still be cursing me
Come my anniversary
Come The Meantimes
He came back right back
And they followed and failed
He came back right back
He got hammered and nailed
He came back right back
And he wandered alone
They said let's gather some stones
And make them atone
Now I'm in a hall of mirrors
With my secret thoughts and terrors
