One Bell Ringing Lyrics - National Ransom - Elvis Costello

Raining slapping on the window pane 

An hour or more of teeming 

Storm punching like a hurricane 

That tore him out of dreaming 

Air screaming through the slightest gap 

Rattling between the frame and the sill 

Drapes hanging from the final act 

When I had you still 

One lonely bird is singing 

Lower the hood hung of his lament 

Dash him down on cold cement 

One Bell Ringing

Flies buzzing round strip search light 

They've got him down on his knees 

He thinks of honey dripping from a spoon 

Girls whispering in Portuguese 

Between muzzle and the black site 

Electrical contact 

Deny your name and then carry the blame 

Somewhat after the fact 

One lonely bird is singing 

Lower the hood hung on that last lament 

Dash him down on cold cement 

One Bell Ringing
