Love Went Mad

Elvis Costello

Transposer:

I’ve looked at it every way I can From under and above And every chance I’ve had My love went mad Love went mad love went mad You you feel like I feel? Do you have a heart? Do you have a heart of iron and steel? Are you a man now you wear a man’s hat? Are you a man now or are you a rat? You go to church quiet as a mouse You’re a big cheese now in the workhouse With these vulgar fractions of the treble clef I wish you luck with a capital ’F’ A self-made mug is hard to break A silent partner in someone else’s mistake Every day goes by without a hitch You feel the urge becoming an itch The boys in blue are hard to catch They’re busy turning Piccadilly Into Brands Hatch But with your fingers in your ears Feeling bright as a button Thinking ’Thank God there’ll be no more Lamb dressed as mutton’ Playing family favourites on a tissue and a comb Dying a thousand deaths In the safety of your own home I’ve looked at it every way I can From under and above And every chance I’ve had My love went mad Love went mad love went mad You you feel like I feel? Do you have a heart? Do you have a heart of iron and steel?

Cette chanson évoque les tumultes de l'amour et les désillusions qu'il peut engendrer. L’artiste se questionne sur la nature des sentiments, interroge l'authenticité des relations humaines et met en lumière les contradictions entre l'apparence et la réalité. À travers des images saisissantes, il fait allusion à une vie quotidienne où l'indifférence et la superficialité semblent prévaloir. Le contexte semble faire allusion aux luttes personnelles et sociétales, où les divisions et les faux-semblants nous entourent. Les références à la vie en société et aux masques que nous portons soulignent une tension entre ce que l'on montre et ce que l'on ressent réellement. Il y a une quête sous-jacente de compréhension et d'authenticité dans un monde parfois absurde.
