Anne Sofie von Otter, Elvis Costello - Broken Bicycles/Junk lyrics

Broken bicycles old busted chains
Rusted handle bars out in the rain

Somebody must have an orphanage for
These things that nobody wants any more
September's reminding July
It's time to be saying good-bye
Summer is gone but our love will remain
Like old broken bicycles
Left out in the rain

Broken bicycles don't tell my folks
There's all those playing cards
Pinned to the spokes
Laid down like skeletons out on the lawn

One wheel won't turn
While the other has gone
The seasons can turn on a dime
Somehow I forget every time
These things you've given me
They always will stay
They're broken but I'll never throw them away

Motor cars, handlebars bicycles for two
Broken hearted jubilee
Parachutes, Army boots sleeping bags for two
Sentimental jamboree buy, buy
Says the sign in the shop window why, why
Says the junk in the yard

Candlesticks, building bricks
Something old and new
Memories for you and me

Buy, buy says the sign in the shop window
Why, why says the junk in the yard
