Текст песни Creatures of Habit (Mel Cooleys) с переводом

We held our breath for hours and hours

With adolescent lungs

And all the rhymes of younger times

Came tripping off our tongues

But we lost some sight

We lost some timing

Backed away from social climbing

All the way from saccharine to sweet

This is not an honorable defeat

We watched the tv closer, closer

Read by candle-light

Held our views and turned the screws

And served our appetite

But we lost some height

We lost some courage

Grew so tired of being discouraged

All the way from nursery to grave

This is how the old-at-heart behave

Creatures of habit

Suffering our conceits

All we learn from history is history repeats

Creatures of habit

Creatures of habit

We held our breath for hours and hours

In adolescent truth

All the cars and lovers scars

Were symbols of our youth

But we lost some strength

We lost some hearing

Lost the things we thought endearing

All the way from dangerous to dumb

This could be the best of what will come

Creatures of habit

Calm and incomplete

All we learn from history is history repeats

Creatures of habit

Creatures of habit

All the way from saint to second-hand

This is not the way that it was planned

Less to lose and less to plunder

Only dreams to pull us under

(Creatures of habit)

Almost obsolete

All we learn from history is history repeats

And we are creatures of habit
