Текст песни Amaryllis In The Sprawl (Shriekback) с переводом

Looking real pretty in her anorak

Between the A111 and the railway track

Amaryllis has a dream of traffic cones

And a crumpled raincheck for the pleasure dome

She says, «Nothing is unbearable, nothing is unbearable»

Peering through the window at the greasy sky

And the complicated beauty of a river run dry

Everything connected to her pleasure and pain

She gonna try it all at once and do it all again

As if everything’s a riddle to her, everything’s a riddle to her

All of history, slack demented poetry

Take a look at Amaryllis in the sprawl

And the road-kill kitten wants to feel it all

Out around the ring road in the falling dark

Between the heritage center and the business park

Amaryllis thinking on the world and I

The way the mud don’t love you and the trees don’t cry

All of it’s embarrassing, all of it’s embarrassing

All of history, lit up like a Christmas tree

Take a look at Amaryllis in the sprawl

And the car park’s freezing but the rain don’t fall

Amaryllis moving through the shifting night

It’s a temporary structure but it feels alright

The flesh of the city where it’s got no bones

And everywhere’s America and nowhere’s home

And I dropped her off at Kidderminster, dropped her off at Kidderminster

All of history, not all it’s cracked up to be

Take a look at Amaryllis in the sprawl

And the electric eyeballs get to see it all

Isn’t it delirious?
