Текст песни Archimedes (John Cale) с переводом

Keep me away from a naked flame

I am made of vapour and I will explode

There’s been something rattling in the closet trying to get out

The car antenna’s gone missing — it’s out there somewhere

Cruising the streets

Archimedes and me go back a ways

Archimedes and me both married in our own way

To old ideas in new clothes

The good will goddess passed us by we were satisfied with that

And when your drive down

Pacific Palisades you can see he made the desert bloom

Archimedes and me…

(the noise of the first Archimedes Screw)

There’s been something rattling in the closet trying to get out

— the car antenna’s missing — (the rest of it will be gone soon)
