Elvis Costello — I’m in the Mood Again

[Verse 1] Hail to the taxis They go where I go Farewell the newspapers that know more than I know Flung under a street-lamp still burning at dawn [Chorus] I'm in the mood again [Verse 2] I walk the damp streets rather than slumber Along the fine windows of shameless and plunder But none of their riches could ever compare [Chorus] [Bridge] I don't know what's come over me But it's nothing that I'm doing wrong You took the breath right out of me Now you'll find it in the early hours In a lover's song [Verse 3] I lay my head down on fine linens and satin Away from the mad-hatters who live in Manhattan The Empire State Building illuminating the sky [Chorus] I'm in the mood, I'm in the mood, I'm in the mood again
