Текст песни Abandon Ship! (Van Der Graaf Generator) с переводом

Oh, the heptagenarians got behind the decks

While the skeleton crew went through the motions

It was only the medication that was keeping them erect

Yeh, the devil got the best tunes

So god knows what comes next

And it’s difficult to think of anything less magic

Than the aged in pursuit of the hip

At the lifeboat station there’s a mounting panic…

They’re going overboard for this one —

Abandon ship!

Oh, the humanitarians took themselves below

While they tried to debate the latest motion;

Meanwhile only the medication served to keep them on the go

So it’s devil take the hindmost:

We sail on the sloop John Doe

And it’s difficult to think of anything that’s factual

Now we find ourselves in Alzheimer’s grip;

So at disembarkation it’s no names, no pack-drill

We’re all anonymous on this one —

Abandon ship!
