🎵 Luyện Nghe Bài Hát: This Sad Burlesque - Elvis Costello

 I write in hopes that by the time  get this letter
 We may  to see a change for the better
 Or are we so devoted  these wretched selfish motives
 When the cold facts and figures all  up
 They  contradict this sad burlesque
 
  sad burlesque
 With miserable failures making entertainment  our fate
  cannot dignify of elevate
 This sad 
 
 Now  they recall being young and idealistic
 Before wading knee-deep  hogwash and arithmetic
  pitying smirk
 The  runs like clockwork
 Will run  eventually and splutter to a stop
 
 P.S. Well  now you know the worst of it
  we've heard all the alibis that they've rehearsed
 The  predictions
 If it's not a 
 Keep faith  human nature
 And  mercy on the creatures in this sad burlesque
