I Want To Vanish Lyrics - Elvis Costello

I want to vanish 

This is my fondest wish 

To go where I cannot be captured 

Laid on a decorated dish 

 

Even in splendor this curious fate 

Is more than I care to surrender, now it's too late 

 

Whether in wonder or indecent haste 

You arrange the mirrors and the spools 

To snare the rare and precious jewels 

That were only made of paste

If you should stumble upon my last remark 

I'm crying in the wilderness 

I'm trying my best to make it dark 

How can I tell you I'm rarer than most? 

I'm certain as a lost dog, pondering a signpost 

 

Whether in wonder or indecent haste 

You arrange the mirrors and the spools 

To snare the rare and precious jewels 

That were only made of paste

I want to vanish 

This is my last request 

I've given you the awful truth 

Now give me my rest
