Текст песни Bird in a Basement (Paul Dempsey) с переводом

Hey living thing, buy me a drink

And drive me out to the airport

Give me two hundred dollars and say

The best thing anyone’s ever said

If you steal every word from your grandmothers' purse

And lay them out on the dashboard

We’ll be fine…

Hey living thing, if you’re turning in

I’ll wake you when something changes

Then I’ll ring all the bells again

And you’ll spill champagne in my shoes

We’ll make rose-coloured smoke from bad horoscopes

Confetti from news pages

And you’ll be mine…

The same heart attack

Will keep feeding back

Right under the streets

Skipping every other beat

So hey living thing, let me in

To the world you’re living in

Hey living thing, you’ve waited for it

From billions counting backwards

Like a dog on a fire escape

Like a bird in a basement

Now release your breath form it’s paper bag

And no matter what you hear

If green lights come raining down tonight

It means tomorrow’s another year…

And the same heart attack

Will keep feeding back

Right under the streets

Skipping every other beat

Hey living thing, you’re breathing again

You’re breathing again…
