Elvis Costello - Dr. Luther's Assistant lyrics

Everything seems so tranquil Home movies with no subtitles Don't you wish you knew what they were sayin' When the film keeps playin', playin' ? Oh, he's doctor luther's a**istant He'll close in when he seems so distant Doctor luther's a**istant He'll get on top of you when you lower your resistance Some say he is just a lackey Changing words while the ink is still tacky He's absolutely indispensable He keeps the other boys in suspense Oh, he's doctor luther's a**istant He'll close in when he seems so distant Doctor luther's a**istant He'll get on top of you when you lower your resistance Luther is locked in a broken-down cinema Watches his wife with his video camera Sees his best boy makin' her grin Out of the kitchen, she's gone with the wind Oh, doctor luther's a**istant He'll close in, when he seems so distant Doctor luther's a**istant He'll get on top of you when you lower your resistance
