Lyrics and translation Billy Bragg - The Saturday Boy (Live at I Beam – San Francisco 3 June 1985)




The Saturday Boy (Live at I Beam – San Francisco 3 June 1985)
Субботний Парень (Живое выступление в I Beam – Сан-Франциско 3 июня 1985)
I'll never forget the first day I met her
Никогда не забуду день нашей первой встречи,
That September morning was clear and fresh
То сентябрьское утро было ясным и свежим.
The way she spoke and laughed at my jokes
Как ты говорила и смеялась над моими шутками,
And the way she rubbed herself
И как ты терлась
Against the edge of my desk
Об край моей парты.
She became a magic mystery to me
Ты стала для меня волшебной загадкой.
And we'd sit together in double
Мы сидели вместе на уроках истории,
History twice a week
Дважды в неделю,
And some days we'd walk the same way home
А иногда шли домой одной дорогой.
And it's surprising how quick
И удивительно, как быстро
A little rain can clear the streets
Небольшой дождь может очистить улицы.
We dreamed of her and compared our dreams
Мы мечтали о тебе и сравнивали наши мечты,
But that was all that I ever tasted
Но это все, что мне довелось испытать.
She lied to me with her body you see
Ты лгала мне своим телом, понимаешь,
I lied to myself 'bout the chances I'd wasted
А я лгал себе о потерянных возможностях.
The times we were close
Те моменты, когда мы были близки,
Were far and few between
Были редкими
In the darkness at the dances in the school canteen
В темноте на танцах в школьной столовой.
Did she close her eyes like I did
Ты закрывала глаза, как и я,
As we held each other tight
Когда мы крепко обнимались?
And la la la la la la la la means I love you
И ля-ля-ля, ля-ля-ля, ля-ля-ля означает люблю тебя".
She danced with me and I still hold that memory
Ты танцевала со мной, и я до сих пор храню это воспоминание,
Soft and sweet
Нежное и сладкое.
And I stare up at her window
И я смотрю на твое окно,
As I walk down her street
Проходя по твоей улице.
But I never made the first team,
Но я так и не попал в первую команду,
I just made the first team laugh
Я только смешил ее.
And she never came to the phone
А ты никогда не подходила к телефону,
She was always in the bath
Ты всегда была в ванной.
In the end, it took me a dictionary
В конце концов, мне понадобился словарь,
To find out the meaning of unrequited
Чтобы узнать значение слова "безответный",
While she was giving herself for free
Пока ты отдавалась бесплатно
At a party to which I was never invited
На вечеринке, на которую меня не пригласили.
I never understood my failings then
Тогда я не понимал своих неудач,
And I hide my humble hopes now
И теперь скрываю свои скромные надежды.
Thinking back she made us want her
Оглядываясь назад, ты заставляла нас желать тебя,
A girl not old enough to shave her legs
Девочку, еще слишком юную, чтобы брить ноги.
