Текст песни Back Back Back (Ani DiFranco) с переводом

Back back back in the back of your mind

Are you learning an angry language

Tell me boy boy boy are you tending to your joy

Or are you just letting it vanquish

Back back back in the dark of your mind

Where the eyes of your demons are gleamin

Are you mad mad mad

About the life you never had

Even when you are dreaming

Who are these old old people

In these nursing homes

Scowling away at nothing

Like big rag dolls just cursing at the walls

And pulling out all of their stuffing

Every day is a door leading back to the core

Yes, old age will distill you

And if you’re this this this full of bitterness now

Some day it will just fill you

When you sit right down in the middle of yourself

You’re gonna wanna have a comfortable chair

So renovate your soul before you get too old

Cuz you’r egonna be housebound there

When you’re old you fold up like an envelope

And you mail yourself right inside

And there’s nowhere to go

Except out real slow

Are you ready, boy, for that ride?

Your arrogance is gaining on you

And so is eternity

You better practice happiness

You better practice humility

You took the air, you took the time

You were fed and you were free

Now you’d better put some beauty back

While you got the energy

You’d better put some beauty back, boy

While you got the energy
