No Hiding Place Lyrics - Momofuku - Elvis Costello

In the not very distant future 

When everything will be free 

There won't be any cute secrets 

Let alone any novelty 

You can say anything you want to 

In your fetching cloak of anonymity 

Are you feeling out of breath now? 

In your desperate pursuit of infamy 

Two lovers rocking up and down 

In an elevator, 15 minutes later 

They'll make a killing in the market 

They know how to work it 

On that close circuit 

My, my, it's a terrible disgrace 

You'll find these days that there's 

No hiding place

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

How proud you, are you got the knack 

Of howling in a vacuum 

Whatever I said about you 

I didn't say it behind your back 

I paid for my immortal sins 

I know the enemy within you 

As it seems these days 

There is no hiding place 

Next time someone wants to hurt you 

Or set alight your effigy 

Don't call on me to help you out 

Don't come crying to me for sympathy 

You stay there with your daubs and scratches 

While I summon up the red machine 

I'll be handing somebody matches 

And carrying a can of kerosene 

Photos 

Walk up to me 

And say what you said 

Let's see how brave you are 

When I'm about this far 

You sit in judgment and bitch 

Well, baby that's rich 

You're nothing but a snitch 

My, my, it's a terrible disgrace 

My, my, it's a terrible disgrace 

My, my, it's a terrible disgrace 

You'll find these days that there's 

No hiding place
