Lyrics and translation David Bowie feat. Junior's Eyes - Janine - Dave Lee Travis Show - Recorded 20.10.69, 2000 Remastered Version

Oh my love, Janine

О, Любовь моя, Джанин

I'm helpless for your smile

Я беспомощен перед твоей улыбкой.

Like a Polish wanderer

Как польский скиталец.

I travel ever onwards to your land

Я путешествую все дальше к твоей земле.

And were it not just for the jewels, I'd close your hand

И если бы не драгоценности, я бы сжал твою руку.

Your strange demand

Твое странное требование

To 'collocate' my mind

Чтобы "собрать воедино" мой разум.

Scares me into gloom

Пугает меня до уныния.

You're too intense

Ты слишком напряжен.

I'll have to keep you in your place

Мне придется держать тебя на месте.

I've no defence

У меня нет защиты.

I've got to keep my veil on my face

Мне нужно держать вуаль на лице.

Janine, Janine, you'd like to know me well

Джанин, Джанин, ты хотела бы узнать меня получше.

But I've got things inside my head

Но у меня есть кое-что в голове.

That even I can't face

С этим даже я не могу смириться.

Janine, Janine, you'd like to crash my walls

Джанин, Джанин, ты хочешь разрушить мои стены.

But if you take an axe to me

Но если ты возьмешь в руки топор ...

You'll kill another man

Ты убьешь другого человека.

Not me at all

Совсем не я.

You're fey, Janine

Ты фей, Джанин.

A tripper to the last

Триппер до последнего.

But if I catch you standing on my toes

Но если я поймаю тебя стоящим на цыпочках ...

I'll have a right to shout you down

У меня будет право прикрикнуть на тебя.

For you're a lazy stream

Потому что ты ленивый поток.

In which my thoughts would drown

В которой утонут мои мысли.

So stay, Janine

Так что останься, Джанин.

And we can glide along

И мы можем скользить вперед.

I've caught your wings for laughs

Я поймал твои крылья для смеха

I'm not obliged to read you statements of the year

Я не обязана читать ваши отчеты за год.

So take your glasses off

Так что сними свои очки.

And don't act so sincere

И не притворяйся таким искренним.

Janine, Janine, you'd like to know me well

Джанин, Джанин, ты хотела бы узнать меня получше.

But I've got things inside my head

Но у меня есть кое-что в голове.

That even I can't face

С этим даже я не могу смириться.

Janine, Janine, you'd like to crash my walls

Джанин, Джанин, ты хочешь разрушить мои стены.

But if you take an axe to me

Но если ты возьмешь в руки топор ...

You'll kill another man

Ты убьешь другого человека.

Not me at all

Совсем не я.
