letra de walk us uptown - elvis costello

[verse 1]
will you walk us uptown?
and wherever you go, you know we will follow
will you walk us uptown? and we’ll stand in the light
of your new k!lling ground, and we won’t make a sound
except to sing our sorrow
will you walk us uptown while our tears run in torrents
to suffer in silence or pray for some solace
will you wash away our sins in the cross-fire and cross-currents?
as you uncross your fingers, and take out some insurance

[chorus]
no matter what the price
it’s your own paradise
will you walk us uptown?
will you walk us uptown?

[verse 2]
some hearts are sinking and some hearts are a-flutter
some scoop gold from the dirt in the gutter
or swallow the earth, pouring into your mouth
as they bury us upright saying, “everything’s alright”
will you walk us uptown like some said that you could
we will feast on your flesh and drink down your blood
will you haul down that flag and dishonor that vow?
because we must not change its color now
will you walk us uptown?

[chorus]
no matter what the price
each crushed on the corner of their own paradise
will you walk us uptown?
will you walk us uptown?

[verse 2]
that’s always -ssuming
that you’re partly divine and partly human
you’re the king of our hearts, you’re the clown with the drum
will you walk us uptown if we promise not to run?
will you walk us uptown? will you gather us near
as cowards flee and traitors sneer?
keep a red flag flying, keep a blue flag as well
and a white flag in case it all goes to h-ll (h-ll!)
