Found it!

Elvis Costello's version isn't on there, though--and NO version of the song
is available from iTunes. I don't even think I have it on CD or vinyl. I
know that the BoB version should be somewhere on CD, though, and I imagine
the EC version ought to be findable as well.
This vid is good, though, because he really performs it. They say the
Costello cover is even more devastating, because the music is all bouncy and
happy--haven't heard that one in years, though I know that he once wrote a
composition of his own that was every bit as dark--virtually a serious
reworking of Tom Lehrer's "I Hold Your Hand in Mine." (I have that EC song
on one of my driving tapes--it was within a few albums of *Imperial
Bedroom,* though I can't place it closer than that off the top of my teeny
tiny, itty-bitty head.)
