ELVIS COSTELLO
"Fire Suite Reprise"
(Music: R. Nathanson; Lyrics: Declan MacManus, R. Dobbins, R. Nathanson)

Now you've heard our refrain
And this story must end
'Cause the stars can't stay up
They can only descend

Say we drank
And we prayed
Some just sit like a choir
Came the smoke
In the night
Came the heat
Came the fire

Timber tender
Tender will you remember
Grim sender I can't pretend
So I'll Surrender
Will you remember
