Текст песни London's Brilliant Parade - Elvis Costello
Outside
my
window
not
long
before
sleep
arrives
They
come
with
their
sirens
and
they
sweep
away
all
the
boys
Busy
draining
the
joy
from
their
lives
They
never
said
their
prayers
out
loud
And
while
I'm
dreaming
there's
a
passing
motor
car
That
broadcasts
a
popular
song
And
a
girl
appears
to
be
saying
"Do
you
think
that
I'm
going
to
go
far?"
Just
look
at
me
I'm
having
the
time
Of
my
life
or
something
quite
like
it
When
I'm
walking
out
and
about
In
London's
brilliant
parade
She's
one
of
those
girls
that
you
just
can't
place
You
feel
guilty
desiring
such
an
innocent
face
But
of
course
they
knew
that
when
they
cast
her
Along
with
the
red
Route
master
And
the
film
takes
place
in
an
MGB
And
a
perfect
re-creation
of
'The
Speakeasy'
Everybody
looks
happy
and
twisted
Though
she
probably
never
existed
For
old
times
sake
Don't
let
me
awake
I
wouldn't
want
you
to
walk
across
Hungerford
Bridge
especially
at
twilight
Looking
through
the
bolts
and
the
girders
Into
the
water
below,
you'll
never
find
your
answer
there
They
sounded
the
all-clear
in
the
occidental
bazaar
They
used
to
call
Oxford
Street
Now
the
bankrupt
souls
in
the
city
Are
finally
tasting
defeat
Don't
look
at
me
I'm
having
the
time
Of
my
life
or
something
quite
like
it
When
I'm
walking
out
and
about
In
London's
brilliant
parade
When
I'm
walking
out
and
about
In
London's
brilliant
parade
From
the
gates
of
St.
Mary's,
there
were
horses
in
Olympia
And
a
trolley
bus
in
Fulham
Broadway
The
lions
and
the
tigers
in
Regents
Park
Couldn't
pay
their
way
and
now
they're
not
the
only
ones
At
the
Hammersmith
Palais
In
Kensington
and
Camden
Town
There's
a
part
that
I
used
to
play
The
lovely
Diorama
is
really
part
of
the
drama,
I'd
say
Just
look
at
me
I'm
having
the
time
Of
my
life
or
something
quite
like
it
When
I'm
walking
out
and
about
In
London's
brilliant
parade
Just
look
at
me
I'm
having
the
time
Of
my
life
or
something
quite
like
it
When
I'm
walking
out
and
about
In
London's
brilliant
parade
