Elvis Costello - Next Time 'Round (Blood Chocolate)
As I stepped out upon the landing my heart was already down the stairs
She's in the bedroom with that boy of hers
Though her face is creased and her eyes seem strange
There's a second-hand emotion on battered forty-five
My tears were never enough to keep that girl alive
Now she seems contrite will she make the change
Chorus: The next time 'round
The next time 'round
You'll be someone else's baby
But I'll be underground
The Next Time 'Round
Then you took two steps forward and then one step on your back
Now it's a future for me and you that I lack
You'll be the one who'll stands out in the dark
Even when you're all dressed in black
Chorus
You've got something I want now
And I've got something I can't hide
I've got too much love for you now
Have you got too much pride
Sometimes I name and number all the things you gave to me
Your elastic love, this velvet-line purgatory
You used to take the breath out of me
Now I think you'll be the death of me
Chorus
You'll be in some sputnik baby
But I'll be underground
The Next Time 'Round

| His vocals are always good, but in this show EC's guitar tone is impeccable. Damn, I wish I could play that well while singing. |

| Brutal Youth was a return to his 70's form. Fatter in the face, maybe, but his voice and his nice but nasty Buddy Holly glasses arrogance was intact. Absolutely blistering. And somewhat tuneful. |
