Here is another song from the 21st Century playlist that popped up today.
I believe that if a person can tell the same story over and over again in different ways while keeping the details straight, then it’s because that story is congruent and true.
My Lovely Jezebel lyrics
Elvis Costello
She attracts dark rumors
And travels in blue and other humors
Each time she walks in the room
Brings in much more than you'd assume
Ooh, I looked in her eyes and through that window I fell
She's my lovely Jezebel
She neglects you and then she ransacks you so very well
And she suspects your sweet confection
Know when you talk in contradictions
And then she walks without detection
Overrules all of your objections
Ooh, I looked in her eyes and through that window I fell
She's my lovely Jezebel
A man is miserable ape and a sad pile of sticks
He comes out swinging, gets in a few licks
The longest of drum rolls for the shortest of tricks
And she attracts mad intentions
She distracts all of my attention
With her ways and her wild inventions
The facts of life they forgot to mention
Ooh, I looked in her eyes and through that window I fell
She's my lovely Jezebel
She neglects you and then she ransacks you so very well
