Chumbawamba - Smith & Taylor

Текст и перевод песни Chumbawamba - Smith & Taylor




Built with lives
Построенный из жизней
Remembered in plans
Помнят в планах
A history of no ones
История никого.
For the glory of just one man
Во славу всего лишь одного человека.
Should Smith now fall
Должен Ли Смит сейчас пасть?
Then Taylor takes his place
Затем Тейлор занимает его место.
We're measuring our progress
Мы измеряем наш прогресс.
By burying our waste
Похоронив наши отходы.
Pyramids, palaces
Пирамиды, дворцы
Railways and mills
Железные дороги и мельницы
Viaducts, offices
Виадуки, офисы
Pipelines and canals
Трубопроводы и каналы
Bells for the architect
Колокола для архитектора
Ringing through the land
Звон по всей Земле
A hundred honest men to wash
Сотня честных людей для мытья.
The ink stains from his hands
Чернильные пятна на его руках.
For the forging of words
Для ковки слов
Comes easy as sleep
Приходит легко, как сон.
Stones for Smith & Taylor
Камни для Smith & Taylor
Their memories to keep
Чтобы сохранить их воспоминания
Every maiden voyage
Каждое первое путешествие
Leaves a widow on the shore
Оставляет вдову на берегу.
And every blessed spire
И каждый благословенный шпиль.
Sees the earth get its reward
Видит, как Земля получает свою награду.

Исполнитель Chumbawamba, альбом The Boy Bands Have Won, and All the Copyists and the Tribute Bands and the TV Talent Show Producers Have Won, If We Allow Our Culture to Be Shaped by Mimicry, Whether from Lack of Ideas or From Exaggerated Respect. You Should Never Try to Freeze Culture. What You Can Do Is Recycle That Culture. Take Your Older Brother's Hand-Me-Down Jacket and Re-Style It, Re-Fashion It to the Point Where It Becomes Your Own. But Don't Just Regurgitate Creative History, or Hold Art and Music and Literature as Fixed, Untouchable and Kept Under Glass. The People Who Try to 'Guard' Any Particular Form of Music Are, Like the Copyists and Manufactured Bands, Doing It the Worst Disservice, Because the Only Thing That You Can Do to Music That Will Damage It Is Not Change It, Not Make It Your Own. Because Then It Dies, Then It's Over, Then It's Done, and the Boy Bands Have Won.
