Lyrics and translation James Taylor - A Junkie's Lament (2019 Remaster)




Ricky's been kicking the gong
Рики пинает гонг.
Lickety split didn't take too long
Lickety раскол не займет много времени.
A junkie's sick
Наркоман болен.
A monkey's strong
Обезьянка сильна.
That's what's wrong
Вот что не так.
Well, I guess he's been messing around downtown
Что ж, я думаю, он дурачится в центре города.
So sad to see the man losing ground
Так грустно видеть, как человек теряет землю.
Winding down behind closed doors
Сворачиваюсь за закрытыми дверями.
On all fours
На четвереньках.
Mama, don't you call him my name
Мама, не называй его моим именем.
He can't hear you anymore
Он больше не слышит тебя.
And even if he seems the same to you
И даже если он тебе кажется таким же.
That's a stranger to your door
Это незнакомец твоей двери.
Ask him what's he come here for
Спроси его, зачем он пришел сюда?
Oh my God, a monkey can move a man
Боже мой, обезьянка может двигать человека.
Send him to hell
Отправь его в ад.
And home again
И снова домой.
With an empty hand in the afternoon
С пустой рукой днем.
Shooting for the moon
Стрельба на Луну.
It's halfway sick
Это наполовину больной.
And it's halfway stoned
И наполовину под кайфом.
He'd sure like to kick
Он точно хотел бы пнуть.
But it's too far gone
Но это слишком далеко зашло.
They wind him down with the methadone
Они заводят его метадоном.
He's all on his own
Он сам по себе.
But baby, don't you throw your love away
Но, Детка, не бросай свою любовь.
I hate to seem unkind
Я ненавижу казаться злым.
It's only that I understand the man
Это только то, что я понимаю этого человека.
That the monkey can leave behind
Что обезьяна может оставить позади.
I used to think he was a friend of mine
Раньше я думала, что он мой друг.
