Текст песни Cinderella Undercover (Oingo Boingo) с переводом

When I was young, my mind would always wander away

I couldn’t talk; never had nothin' to say

But now I’m grown; nothing much seems to have changed

I think I’m going insane, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Is this a fairytale; are you the Seven Dwarves?

Did Snow White really die while fighting in the war?

They were the only friends I ever trusted

Now they’re scattered and livin' in the city

Unlisted numbers, huh

Cinderella undercover

I say, better alive than dead

The war is coming, but there’s nothing much that we can do

Stuck in a payphone, but the operator won’t let me through

I close my eyes, but the memories burn in my brain

I think I’m going insane

I heard a rumor: They said it’s gone nuclear

I stockpile cigarettes and double-bolt the door

A sanctuary for all my friends

We’ll stay in bed until the world ends

So please don’t wake me; I gotta get some sleep

Cinderella undercover

I say, better alive than dead

I think I’m going insane

Is this a fairytale? This can’t be real

There’s fighting all around

They’re shooting in the fields

They say that values change when hunger or ambition strikes

Survival is essential at any cost or any price

The cartoon animals on Old McDonald’s farm

Are nodding off in hotel rooms with needles in their arms

The Seven Dwarves

Well, there’s only four alive today

Cinderella’s working for the CIA

Cinderella, the fairytale’s over

You should know; you got the scars to prove it

And your skin isn’t as soft as it used to

But I don’t care; come on, you said it, baby

Cinderella undercover

I say, better alive than—

Cinderella undercover

I say, better alive than dead
