Lyrics and translation Michael Head - Money, O!




Money, O!
Деньги, о!
When I had money, money O
Когда у меня водились деньги, о, деньги,
I knew no joy till I went poor
Я не знал радости, пока не стал беден.
For many a false man as a friend
Много лживых друзей
Came knocking all day at my door.
Стучались весь день в мою дверь.
Then felt I like a child
Тогда я чувствовал себя как ребенок,
That holds a trumpet
Который держит трубу,
That he must not blow
В которую нельзя дуть,
Because a man is dead
Потому что кто-то умер.
I dared not speak to let this false world know
Я не смел говорить, чтобы этот лживый мир не узнал.
Much had I thought of life
Много я думал о жизни
And seen how poor man's
И видел, как у бедняков
Hearts are ever light
Сердца всегда легки,
And how their wives do hum like bees
И как их жены жужжат, словно пчелы,
About their work from morn till night
За работой с утра до ночи.
So when I hear these poor ones laugh
Поэтому, когда я слышу смех бедняков
And see the rich ones coldly frown
И вижу, как хладнокровно хмурятся богачи,
Poor men think I need not go up
Думаю, беднякам не нужно подниматься,
So much as rich men should come down
Настолько, насколько богачам нужно спуститься.
When I had money, money O
Когда у меня водились деньги, о, деньги,
I knew no joy till I went poor
Я не знал радости, пока не стал беден.
For many a false man as a friend
Много лживых друзей
Came knocking all day at my door
Стучались весь день в мою дверь.
All Day, at my door.
Весь день, в мою дверь.
