Текст песни Blanket and Crib (Okkervil River) с переводом

Safe, safe — enjoy your time feeling so safe

And treasure that smile on your face, okay?

‘Cause time will see that it’s replaced in a while

So go on & smile, smile, handshakes all around, that’s your style

And no one would call it denial

For you’re not even sure what’s in store, though it’s more

Than you’ll be able to take standing up straight

And it won’t be okay

And you won’t be somebody who it’s just happening to

It’s a trap that you, and only you

Have laid, laid with a towel up over your face

In your armchair, just lying in wait

Waiting forces were gathering outside your door

They sharpened their knives, knives and smiled with no smiles in their eyes

A little bit larger in size

And a little bit hungrier for that tiny prize

And my mother she said «Son, remember this, no matter what someone did

That they once were just a kid

At breast and in bib, in blanket and crib

So just reach inside yourself and find that part that still needs help

Find that part in someone else and you’ll do good»

So I thought that I would

So hey, hey — I love you, it goes without saying

I would give you the world on a tray

Though they’re already tracing a line across your throat

Far too late in the game you’ll find that you have been betrayed

Propped up and pushed into your place

I could claim that it all would go great, but the reason I came

Is to say that it won’t

You should know that it won’t

You should know that it won’t

You should know that it won’t

And so, Phillip, let go
