Elvis Costello

Elvis Costello (born Declan Patrick MacManus, 25 August 1954) is an English singer-songwriter. He began his career as part of London's pub rock scene in the early 1970s and later became associated with the first wave of the British punk/New Wave movement of the mid-to-late 1970s. Steeped in word play, the vocabulary of Costello's lyrics is broader than that of most popular songs. His music has drawn on many diverse genres; one critic described him as a "pop encyclopaedia", able to "reinvent the past in his own image". more »

If there's anything that you want
If there's anything that you need
There's no need to be evasive
Money talks and it's persuasive

Possession

Now you're sending me your best wishes
Signed with love and vicious kisses
You lack lust, you're so lacklustre
Is that all the strength you can muster

Possession

Even when we are out of touch
Now I know that I've seen too much, seen too much

So I see us lying back to back
My case is closed, my case is packed
I'll get out before the violence
Or the tears or the silence
