Lyrics and translation The Guess Who - Cardboard Empire (Remastered)
Cardboard
empire
would
you
crumble
to
the
ground
Картонная
империя,
дорогая,
ты
рухнешь
на
землю,
As
we
watched
by
А
мы
будем
смотреть.
Shipping
magnate
are
you
stranded
on
the
ground
Морской
магнат,
милая,
ты
застрял
на
земле,
With
no
dog
to
fly...
Без
собаки,
чтобы
взлететь...
Round
the
table
sat
the
kings
of
circumstance
За
круглым
столом
сидели
короли
обстоятельств,
The
puppeteer
would
pull
his
strings
Кукловод
дергал
за
нити,
And
we
would
sing
and
dance
А
мы
пели
и
танцевали,
As
the
cardboard
empire
fell
Пока
картонная
империя
падала.
Stone
Age
Neros
sat
behind
their
desks
of
steel
Нероны
каменного
века
сидели
за
своими
стальными
столами,
Trading
paper
clips
Торгуя
скрепками.
Of
our
empire
there
was
nothing
left
untouched
От
нашей
империи,
любимая,
ничего
не
осталось
нетронутым,
But
potato
chips
Кроме
картофельных
чипсов.
We
sat
down
at
the
banquet
and
the
jester
danced
a
reel
Мы
сели
за
банкетный
стол,
и
шут
станцевал
джигу,
The
gladiator
drew
his
sword,
we
knew
we
were
the
meal
Гладиатор
обнажил
свой
меч,
мы
знали,
что
мы
— угощение,
As
the
cardboard
empire
fell
Пока
картонная
империя
падала.
Who
are
the
people,
who
are
the
people
Кто
эти
люди,
кто
эти
люди,
Who
are
the
people
that
you
think
you
are?
Кто
эти
люди,
дорогая,
кем
вы
себя
воображаете?
