Lyrics and translation Billy Bragg - The Cloth (1)




The Cloth (1)
Ткань (1)
Did you believe those things
Веришь ли ты всему этому,
We read in the papers?
Что пишут в газетах?
And never mind that, can you meet me
И не бери в голову, ты сможешь встретить меня
Down at the Time Warp tonight?
Сегодня вечером в "Искажении времени"?
Oh you look divine
О, ты выглядишь божественно,
That suit would get you into anywhere
В этом костюме ты пройдешь куда угодно.
Tonight I'll be, as you can see
Сегодня вечером я буду, как видишь,
The idol of an island far, far away
Кумиром далекого, далекого острова.
A man of straw in cloth of gold
Соломенный человек в золотых одеждах,
Look into his eyes at the days of old
Загляни в его глаза, вглядись в былые дни
And bow to the cloth
И преклонись перед величием,
And bow to the cloth
И преклонись перед величием.
Can you believe those things
Ты можешь поверить всему этому,
We've seen in the papers?
Что мы видели в газетах?
And never mind that, can you get
И не бери в голову, ты сможешь добраться
To the bar before the next egg starts?
До бара до того, как начнётся следующий сет?
The word goes 'round the eyes of a wife
Слухи расходятся во взгляде жены
And magazines with shiny pages
И на глянцевых страницах журналов,
And my hay-head where will it stop?
И моя соломенная голова, где она остановится?
And the boys in the shop continue to bop
А ребята в магазине продолжают отрываться.
A man of straw in cloth of gold
Соломенный человек в золотых одеждах,
Look into his eyes to the days of old
Загляни в его глаза, вглядись в былые дни
And bow to the cloth
И преклонись перед величием,
Bow to the cloth
Преклонись перед величием.
Heading down, getting further down
Мы идём ко дну, всё ниже и ниже,
And we've hit an iceburg
И вот мы наткнулись на айсберг.
But I don't care what the people think
Но мне всё равно, что думают люди,
I will drink and drink till the damn ship sinks
Я буду пить и пить, пока этот чёртов корабль не потонет.
A man of straw in cloth of gold
Соломенный человек в золотых одеждах,
Look into his eyes to the days of old
Загляни в его глаза, вглядись в былые дни.
A drowing man in a metal coat
Утопающий в металлическом одеянии,
The prince has fallen into the moat
Принц упал в ров.
To the cloth, to the cloth
К величию, к величию.
