Poison Moon Lyrics - Unfaithful Music - Elvis Costello

Cut loose in a nightmare, cast off in my dreams 

If home is anywhere that I can hang my hat 

Then it's coming apart at the seams 

My luck is hanging upside down 

I try to hold on tight 

But money's rolling out of town 

And love slips right out of sight 

And these bones, they don't look so good to me 

Jokers talk and they all disagree 

One day soon, I will laugh right in the face of the poison moon 

You look in the mirror 

I'm sorry, but it can't be replaced 

You're thrown straight out in that cruel parade 

Buttoned down and laced 

It starts like fascination, it ends up like a trance 

You've gotta use your imagination on some of that magazine romance

And these bones--they don't look so good to me 

Jokers talk and they all disagree 

One day soon, I will laugh right in the face of the poison moon 

One day soon, I will laugh right in the face of the poison moon
