Behind The Lyrics




"Somewhere in the Quisling clinic theres a showtime typist taking seconds over minutes"
Green Shirt by Elvis Costello

Those of you are die-hard Elvis Costello fans may have always wondered just what the heck a Quisling clinic is. Well, I'm here to tell you, its located in Madison Wisconsin, and I used to drive by it everyday back when I lived there. Madison folks will be the first to tell you that Elvis drove by it too, in his tour bus, and wrote it down in his notebook. The clinic was founded by Sverre Quisling, a member of a prominent Madison medical family who lived to be 102.

There. Aren't you glad you know?
