Lyrics and translation XTC - The Ballad of Peter Pumpkinhead (demo)




Let's begin
Начнем!
Peter Pumpkinhead came to town
Питер Тыквоголовый приехал в город.
Spreading wisdom and cash around
Распространение мудрости и наличности повсюду
Fed the starving and housed the poor
Кормили голодающих и приютили бедных.
Showed the Vatican what gold's for
Показал Ватикану, для чего нужно золото.
But he made too many enemies
Но он нажил слишком много врагов.
Of the people who would keep us on our knees
О людях, которые будут держать нас на коленях.
Hooray for Peter Pumpkin
Ура Питеру тыкве!
Who'll pray for Peter Pumpkinhead, oh my
Кто будет молиться за Питера тыквоголового, О боже
Peter Pumpkinhead proved them all
Питер Тыквоголовый доказал их все.
Emptied churches and shopping malls
Опустевшие церкви и торговые центры.
When he spoke it would raise the roof
Стоило ему заговорить, как от него поднималась крыша.
Peter Pumpkinhead told the truth
Питер Тыквоголовый сказал правду
But he made too many enemies
Но он нажил слишком много врагов.
Of the people who would keep us on our knees
О людях, которые будут держать нас на коленях.
Hooray for Peter Pumpkin
Ура Питеру тыкве!
Who'll pray for Peter Pumpkinhead, oh my
Кто будет молиться за Питера тыквоголового, О боже
Peter Pumpkinhead put to shame
Питер Тыквоголовый посрамлен
Governments who would slur his name
Правительства, которые будут клеветать на его имя.
Plots and sex scandals failed outright
Заговоры и сексуальные скандалы провалились.
Peter merely said, any kind of love is alright
Питер просто сказал, что любая любовь хороша.
But he made too many enemies
Но он нажил слишком много врагов.
Of the people who would keep us on our knees
О людях, которые будут держать нас на коленях.
Hooray for Peter Pumpkin
Ура Питеру тыкве!
Who'll pray for Peter Pumpkinhead?
Кто будет молиться за Питера тыквоголового?
Peter Pumpkinhead was too good
Питер Тыквоголовый был слишком хорош.
Had him nailed to a chunk of wood
Его пригвоздили к дереву.
He died grinning on live T.V.
Он умер, ухмыляясь в прямом эфире.
Hanging there he looked a lot like you
Вися там, он был очень похож на тебя.
And an awful lot like me
И очень похож на меня,
But he made too many enemies
но нажил слишком много врагов.
Of the people who would keep us on our knees
О людях, которые будут держать нас на коленях.
Hooray for Peter Pumpkin
Ура Питеру тыкве!
Who'll pray for Peter Pumpkinhead?
Кто будет молиться за Питера тыквоголового?
Hooray for Peter Pumpkin (Hooray)
Ура Питеру тыкве! (Ура!)
Who'll pray for Peter Pumpkin?
Кто будет молиться за Питера тыкву?
Hooray for Peter Pumpkinhead
Ура Питеру Тыквоголовому
Oh my, oh my, don't it make you wanna cry?
О боже, о Боже, неужели тебе не хочется плакать?
