[00:00.00]Elvis Costello - Down Among The Wines And Spirits [00:00.50] [00:01.82]Down among the wines and spirits [00:08.17]Where a man gets what he merits... [00:13.75]Once it was written in letters 'bout nine feet tall [00:18.88]Now he sees how far he's fallen [00:24.53]Since he set his mind on her completely [00:30.39]But then I guess that you couldn't have seen him lately [00:35.79]Walking around with a pain that just never ceases [00:41.15]He starts to speak and then he goes to pieces... [00:47.02]Down among the wines and spirits [00:52.86]Where a man gets what he merits... [00:58.62]Lives with the echoing words of their final quarrel [01:04.06]The vacant chamber [01:06.07]The empty barrel [01:12.63] [01:14.08]But as he picks himself up from a sawdust floor [01:22.85]Clicks his fingers to that swinging door [01:28.49]Suddenly he's calling out, "More, more, more..." [01:39.59]"I'm twice the foolish man I was before..." [01:45.53]Down among the wines and spirits [01:53.95]Bubbles escaping from him at the rim a glass of grape [01:58.25]She sails through his memory just like a ship of shapely [02:04.93]And then as it started sink he drowns his sorrows [02:10.72]That fill his nights and empty tomorrows [02:20.80]But as he picks himself up from a sawdust floor [02:29.47]Clicks his fingers to that swinging door [02:35.17]Suddenly he's calling out, "More, more, more..." [02:46.43]Speaks of invisible things he hardly credits [02:52.36]Down among [02:55.29]Down among the wines and spirits [03:06.49]
