Текст песни The Teacher - Paul Simon
There
once
was
a
teacher
of
great
renown
Whose
words
were
like
the
tablets
of
stone
Because
it's
easier
to
learn
than
unlearn
Because
we've
passed
the
point
of
no
return
Gather
your
goods
and
follow
me
Or
you
will
surely
die
I
was
only
a
child
of
the
city
My
parents
were
children
of
immigrant
stock
So
we
followed
as
followers
go
Over
a
mountain
with
a
napkin
of
snow
And
ate
the
berries
and
roots
That
grown
along
the
timberline
Deeper
and
deeper
the
dreamer
of
love
Sleep
on
a
quilt
of
stars
It's
cold
Sometimes
you
can't
catch
your
breath
It's
so
cold
Time
and
abundance
thickened
his
step
So
the
teacher
divided
in
two
One
half
ate
the
forest
and
fields
The
other
half
sucked
all
the
moisture
from
the
clouds
And
we,
we
were
amazed
at
the
power
of
his
appetite
Deeper
and
deeper
the
dreamer
of
love
Sleeps
on
a
quilt
of
stars
Sometimes
we
don't
know
who
we
are
Sometimes
force
overpowers
us
and
we
cry
My
teacher
carry
me
home
Carry
me
home
my
teacher
Carry
me
home
Carry
me
home
my
teacher
Carry
me
home
