Текст песни City of the Dead (The Clash) с переводом

Ooh

This is the city of the dead

As we lie side by side in bed (ooh)

I’d do somethin' else instead

But it is the city of the dead (ooh)

When we went out kickin' around

You got drunk and fallen down

And I wished I could be like you

With the Soho river drinkin' me down

In the city of the dead

Fall in love and fall in bed

It wasn’t anything you said

Except I know we both lie dead

«Don't ya' know where to cop?»

That’s what New York Johnny said

You should get to know your town

Just like I know mine

While all the windows stare ahead

And the streets are filled with dread (ooh)

Every nation in the world

Slinks through the alley after girls (ooh)

What we wear is dangerous gear

It’ll get you picked on anywhere

Though we get beat up we don’t care

At least it livens up the air

But somedays we hide inside

All courage gone and paralyzed

Sniff that wind of ugly tension

Today the jerks have got aggression

I said today the jerks have got aggression

Is this the city of the dead?

It is the city of the dead

It is the city of the dead

It is the city of the dead
