Costello, Elvis - Jacksons, Monk And Rowe Lyrics
Sister 4 and Brothers 3
Hanging off the family tree
Practising for getting old
Do you want your fortune told
They're looking for you high and low
So you'll just have to come out and face the music
Jacksons, Monk and Rowe
Long ago when we were kids and we cut your hair to bits
As we carried off like spoils the heads we'd smash right off
your dolls
But the wind is changing you know
Are you sure of your friends and your foe
Have you got what it takes to carry it off
Jacksons, Monk and Rowe
Will we both incinerate
If we touch that brass name-plate
Messrs. All, noble Sirs
Highly paid solicitors
Find enclosed my signed divorce
Sad proceedings you endorse
The burden of pity will show
In the people we used to know
Have you got enough strength to carry it off
Jacksons, Monk and Rowe

Costello, Elvis Jacksons, Monk And Rowe Comments
Were there's a will, there's a way, or, how to bump off your rich uncle.
Best song about divorce. You feel the pain.
I loved it, but other people were horrified. And the RECORD COMPANY LET HIM DO THIS? The want to hear the next "Pump It Up," not a voice and string quartet.
I bought this single when it came out on cassette single I loved it
This album was a great collaboration and one of my all time favorites. For some strange
reason my kids used to love Daddy's on fire.
pure emotion
adore everything Costello
...well once i realized stoned in the 70's watching SNL
He's NOT spoofing Buddy Holly...stooge i know
I feel rich after hearing this song.
I enjoy it more now,,,,,Because I'm Stoned!!!
大好き
Yay, thanks for the upload
What a voice! Gives me chills everytime.
This is the great song for Costello with the quartet ever. I've watched thier GIG in Tokyo a while ago :-)
I was there too. Tanoshii
I've been looking for Brodsky + Costello since I saw them on Sky Arts. This is nice. It'd be nice to heve the video too, which I remember was very good - it just showed you them playing .
Lovely sound from the quartet and Costello has a remarkable voice which blends in well. He's a Jazzer of course, so you'd expect him to.
