Lyrics and translation Chumbawamba - Don't Try This At Home




Don't Try This At Home
Не пытайтесь повторить это дома
It's a long walk to the gallows
Долог путь к виселице,
It's a small step to swing free
Маленький шаг к свободе,
The crying in the tower
Плач в башне,
For my conspirators and me
По мне и моим сообщникам.
Gunpowder and modem
Порох и модем,
And a dream of liberty
И мечта о свободе.
And then they'll tell you
И тогда они скажут тебе:
Don't try this at home
«Не пытайся повторить это дома».
Oh yes, they'll tell you
О да, они скажут тебе:
Don't try this at home
«Не пытайся повторить это дома».
If you walk on the beach with King Canute
Если ты пойдешь по пляжу с королем Кнутом,
You'll be walking back alone
Ты вернешься одна.
Tonight he'll dine on oysters
Сегодня вечером он будет ужинать устрицами,
While we fall like green acorns
Пока мы падаем, как зеленые желуди.
We'll be putting down our roots
Мы пустим свои корни
Right in the centre of the storm
Прямо в центре бури.
Oh, but they'll tell you
О, но они скажут тебе:
Don't try this at home
«Не пытайся повторить это дома».
Oh yes, they'll tell you
О да, они скажут тебе:
Don't try this at home
«Не пытайся повторить это дома».
The cry of gulls, the hum of streets
Крик чаек, гул улиц,
The buzz of phones, the march of feet
Жужжание телефонов, топот ног.
We'll meet tonight to draw up plans
Мы встретимся сегодня вечером, чтобы составить планы,
Exclamations, ampersands
Восклицания, амперсанды.
Somewhere across the water
Где-то за водой
They're storming palace gates
Они штурмуют дворцовые ворота.
Scared of the moth-flame metaphor
Испугавшись метафоры мотылька и пламени,
We fall asleep and wait
Мы засыпаем и ждем.
Singing for a future
Поем о будущем,
But the chorus comes too late
Но припев приходит слишком поздно.
Because they'll tell you
Потому что они скажут тебе:
Don't try this at home
«Не пытайся повторить это дома».
Oh yes, they'll tell you
О да, они скажут тебе:
Don't try this at home
«Не пытайся повторить это дома».
Don't, don't, don't, don't (repeats to end)
Не, не, не, не (повторяется до конца)
Don't try this at home (repeats to end)
Не пытайся повторить это дома (повторяется до конца)
Try this at home (repeats to end)
Попробуй это дома (повторяется до конца)
So we're coming to the last dance
Итак, мы приближаемся к последнему танцу,
I've got another request
У меня есть еще одна просьба.
With your best foot forward
С лучшей ноги
We'll lay this ghost to rest
Мы упокоим этот призрак.
So we're coming to the last dance
Итак, мы приближаемся к последнему танцу,
I've got another request
У меня есть еще одна просьба.
With your best foot forward
С лучшей ноги
We'll lay this ghost to rest
Мы упокоим этот призрак.
So we're coming to the last dance
Итак, мы приближаемся к последнему танцу,
I've got another request
У меня есть еще одна просьба.
