Banquet (Live at Carnegie Hall, New York, NY, 2/23/1972)
Банкет (концерт в Карнеги-Холле, Нью-Йорк, 23.02.1972)
Okay,
this
is
another
new
song
Ладно,
это
ещё
одна
новая
песня,
It's
called
"The
Banquet"
она
называется
«Банкет».
And
uh
that's
about
all
I
can
tell
you
about
it
И
это,
пожалуй,
всё,
что
я
могу
о
ней
рассказать.
Come
to
the
dinner
gown
Приходите
на
званый
ужин,
The
table
is
laiden
high,
fat
bellies,
hungry
little
ones
стол
ломится
от
яств:
толстопузые,
голодные
малыши.
Tuck
your
napkins
in
and
take
your
share
Заправляйте
салфетки
и
берите
свою
долю:
Some
get
the
gravy
and
some
get
the
gristle
некоторым
достаётся
подливка,
а
некоторым
— потроха,
Some
get
the
marrow
bone
and
some
get
nothing,
though
there's
plenty
to
spare
некоторым
— костный
мозг,
а
некоторым
— ничего,
хотя
еды
в
изобилии.
I
took
my
share
down
by
the
sea
Я
унесла
свою
долю
к
морю,
Paper
plates
and
Javics
bottles
on
the
tide
бумажные
тарелки
и
бутылки
из-под
растворимого
кофе
«Javics»
на
берегу.
Seagulls
come
down
and
they
squawk
at
me
Чайки
слетаются
и
кричат
на
меня
там,
Down
where
the
water
skiers
где
водные
лыжники
Some
turn
to
Jesus
Кто-то
обращается
к
Иисусу,
Some
turn
to
heroin
кто-то
— к
героину,
Some
turn
to
rambling
round,
looking
for
a
clean
sky
and
a
drinking
stream
кто-то
отправляется
бродить
по
свету
в
поисках
чистого
неба
и
питьевого
ручья.
Some
watch
the
paint
peel
off
Кто-то
смотрит,
как
отслаивается
краска,
Some
watch
their
kids
grow
up
кто-то
смотрит,
как
растут
их
дети,
Some
watch
their
stocks
and
bonds,
waiting
for
that
big
deal
кто-то
следит
за
своими
акциями
и
облигациями
в
ожидании
крупной
сделки
—
American
dream
американской
мечты.
I
took
my
dream
down
by
the
sea
Я
унесла
свою
мечту
к
морю:
Yankee
yachts
and
lobster
pots
and
sunshine
яхты
«Янки»,
ловушки
для
омаров,
солнечный
свет,
And
logs
and
sails
and
shell
oil
pails
брёвна,
паруса,
вёдра
из-под
машинного
масла
«Shell»,
Dogs
and
tugs
and
summertime
собаки,
буксиры
и
лето.
Back
in
the
banquet
line,
angry
young
people
crying
Снова
в
очереди
за
банкетом
плачут
рассерженные
молодые
люди.
Who
let
the
greedy
in
Кто
впустил
жадных,
Who
left
the
needy
out?
кто
оставил
нуждающихся
без
внимания?
Who
made
the
salty
soup?
Кто
сварил
этот
пресный
суп?
Tell
them
we're
very
hungry
now
for
a
sweeter
fare
Передай
им,
что
мы
очень
голодны
и
хотим
более
сладкой
еды.
In
the
cookie
I
reap
В
печенье,
которое
я
пожинаю.
Some
get
the
gravy
Некоторым
достаётся
подливка,
Some
get
the
gristle
некоторым
— потроха,
Some
get
the
marrow
bone
and
some
get
nothing
некоторым
— костный
мозг,
а
некоторым
— ничего.
Now
there's
plenty
to
spare
Теперь
еды
в
изобилии.
