Текст песни A Bright Cold Day In April (Sonic Boom Six) с переводом

It was a bright cold day in April the clocks

Were striking on thirteen when she checked the mailbox

She yawned and took her place

Numbered and indexed and neat in the database

Just looked the same as any old letter

In it drop, tear the top, and a card inside

They say that it’ll make our lives better

Nothing to fear if you’ve got none to hide

You’ll be data protected, you’ll be part of the team

Now that you’re a number on the screen

All securely connected to the central machine

Now that you’re a number on the screen

Outside, the sky, was shiny and blue

The officer stopped her and scanned all her details through

She smiled because she knew

That he was from England because he had a nice card too

The fingerprint it didn’t upset her

For these laws in the wars he fought and died

They say that it’ll make our lives better

Nothing to fear if you’ve got none to hide

You’ll be data protected, you’ll be part of the team

Now that you’re a number on the screen

All securely connected to the central machine

Now that you’re a number on the screen

Your attention!

Our survey says our system has total public approval

Of our use of your data for preventioneering of illegals

Full obliteration of dole scrounge tacticians

And further elucidation of preventative counter measures on the continued war

on terror

So there is no reason for you to worry. Things are under control

It was a bright cold day in April the clocks

Were striking on thirteen when she checked the mailbox

By then it was too late to save civil liberties we don’t appreciate
