Текст песни And Everything Like That (Shriekback) с переводом

Under the time-lapse clouds

Out on the screen of green

I want to see the monsters couple

With the wet machine

You are my salad witch

That I would love to dress

I do not lack the Wound

I do not lack the Mess

And Everything Like That

It’s a granulated thing

Out the Isle of Grain

I want to see the mermaids tussling in the cellophane

You took me to the temple

And I saw the Snake of Brass

I worshipped gods I don’t believe in then they bit my arse

And Everything Like That

It’s a many splendoured thing

I’m looking for it still:

To sculpt the stone of history

-With the hammer of my will

You told me that your Art

Was something that you’d suffer for

'That's well and good' I said

'But would you teach yourself to draw?'

Or Anything Like That?

It’s under shadow law

I sought my virtue there

I want to stand up on the mountain

With my soul laid bare

When all the lilies bloom

You’ll be in my Song of Songs

I’ll be your sugar daddy baby

Here’s the sugar tongs

And Everything Like That

It’s a large potato thing

I keep looking for the signs

I wanna see the aerial view of Sodom

Once before I die

Be my deliquescent virgin

I’ll be your gateway crime

I understand your hesitation

Please just take your time

And Everything Like That

It’s all a mirage

The glory that was Rome:

I want to ape Tiberius

With methedrine and chrome

You are my thunder monkey

You are my baby lamb

I am a simple reptile honey -you know I am

And Everything Like That

It’s an avant-gardish thing

They gave me too much rope:

I’m doing lolanthe

Through a stethoscope

I see you wreathed in vapours

And striding through the coals

You’ll be a Muse of Fire for

Post-post-modern rock 'n' roll

And Everything Like That

It’s an evanescent thing

I waved my fairy wand

I want to rise up glistening from the bottom of the pond

You never liked this nonsense

But this is not so wrong

It’s sort of funky

Sort of weird and moderately long

And Everything Like That

This is a Do-Right outro

For all night song

And it’ll fade out slowly before long…
