Sleep Of The Just - Elvis Costello (埃尔维斯 科斯特洛)
Written by：Declan MacManus
Soldier asked my name into the I come here very often
And further she was asking me to dance
In my holy coat and hat
And him in his red bonnet
We'd have made a lovely couple but
We never had the chance
Now you say that you've gotta go
Well if you must you must
I suppose that you need the sleep of the just
Well it was a powerful day
And there were black crows in the road
And I kept my strong opinions to my chest
I suppose I should have told them that
I was on fire for you
When the bus burst into flames outside some place
The Poet's Rest'
Now you say you've gotta go
Well if you must you must
I suppose that you need the sleep of the just
A girl woke up in a naked light
And said Oh no not again
He even looked like her brother in the army but
She never mentions him
He'll be tucked up in his bed tonight
With his dirty pictures girl
Saying 'You're some mother's daughter
You know or is it
Immaterial girl
Now she's pinned up upon
The barracks wall in her home town
All the soldiers taking turns with their attentions
And as they speculate what
She'd look like beneath that thin nightgown
His family pride was rising up as
He cast his eyes down
Now you say that you've gotta go
If you must you must
I suppose that you need the sleep of the just
