Текст песни Broadway Melody Of 1974 (Peter Gabriel) с переводом

Echoes of the Broadway Everglades

With her mythical madonnas

Still walking in their shades;

Lenny Bruce, declares a truce

And plays his other hand

Marshall McLuhan, casual viewin'

Head buried in the sand

Sirens on the rooftops wailing

But there’s no ship sailing

Groucho, with his movies trailing

Stands alone with his punchline failing

Klu Klux Klan serve hot soul food

And the band plays «In the Mood»

The cheerleader waves her cyanide wand

There’s a smell of peach blossom

And bitter almond

Caryl Chessman sniffs the

Air and leads the parade

He knows in a scent, you

Can bottle all you made

There’s Howard Hughes in blue suede shoes

Smiling at the majorettes smoking

Winston cigarettes

And as the song and dance begins, the children

Play at home with needles; needles and pins
