Текст песни Empty Cans (The Streets) с переводом

If I want to sit in and drink Super Tennent’s in the day I will

No one’s going to fucking tell me jack

But can you rely on anyone in this world? No, you can’t

It’s not my fault there’s wall-to-wall empty cans

Everyone wanted this to all go wrong for me from the start

It’s fucked up that a man’s life can just be attacked

Watching This Morning with a beer is much better than relying on

Gnome cunts for mates I was given that don’t have my back

Scott texted me to say he’d have a look at the TV for me

But I laid it down, telling him to fuck right off, chap

Phoned this company out the Yellow Pages

Told them to take away the TV, fix it quick snap

The next day they took away the TV

Told me they would repair the little bit

That’s broken round on the back

I thought that’d be that, but the next bit was on top

This was where it all started to get a bit out of hand

No one gives a crap about Mike

That’s why I’m acting nasty

You know what you can do with your life?

Introduce it up your jacksie

'Cause no one gives a crap about Mike

That’s why I’m acting nasty

You know what you can do with your life

Introduce it up your jacksie

The TV man comes back later, knocks on mine

To say he’s found something in the back of the TV

I’m looking at it absolutely speechless

Can’t quite believe he’s trying to pull this fucking stunt on me

I knew it was a simple case of the power supply gone on the back

But he’s trying to tap me up for more money

He says, «It's not like that,» and I’m like, «Fuck off and die»

And stick up my two fingers and one more to make three

And he says, «Don't talk to me like that,» and «I don’t understand»

My face is in his face, I tell him I understand perfectly

And he grabs my shirt and I grab his face with my hand

So he brings his fist up and twats me a good one on my cheek

Now I’m trying to pull his head down

So I can knee it, but he’s got my ear

He’s twisting it 'round so much that it’s really hurting me

And we both go down on the floor, and he pushes my head

Back onto the corner of the fridge, which is total agony

Then he gets up and runs out of the kitchen and out of the door

Shouting stuff to me, slams his door, shouting at me

So here I am in my house, drinking on my own settee

Everyone’s a cunt in this life, no one’s there for me

No one gives a crap about Mike

That’s why I’m acting nasty

You know what you can do with your life?

Introduce it up your jacksie

'Cause no one gives a crap about Mike

That’s why I’m acting nasty

You know what you can do with your life

Introduce it up your jacksie

If I want to sit in and drink Super Tennent’s in the day I will

No one’s going to fucking tell me jack

But can you rely on anyone in this world? No, you can’t

It’s all my fault there’s wall-to-wall empty cans

I sat in the kitchen all fucked off

Imagining over and over what they were all doing behind my back

Dodgy things going on, actions I regretted

Stain bottle with a pipe and tin foil on the mat

Scott texted me to say he’d have a look at the TV for me

And I felt like just telling him to fuck right off, chap

But what he said about wanting to do

The right thing by both mates

And then opting to stay out? It seemed to match

But I told him he could make it up by fixing the TV

He said that’s the least he could do to square things flat

I thought that’d be that but then the next bit was mad

This is where everything started to all turn back

It’s the end of something I did not want to end

Beginning of hard times to come

But something that was not meant to be is done

And this is the start of what was

He had to unscrew about fifteen screws

Before he could pull the panel off the back

To get in the fecking thing

But just as he did so, he said he saw summat

That slipped inside behind the panel down the back of it

Must have been some leaflets or a bill maybe

I didn’t wanna lose the bill in case it was a final warning

So we both tried to get the back off and work out

If there was any more screws to get out or if we left any in

And when he looked down the back of the TV, his eyes just froze

Before he rammed his hand in, saying, «No shit!»

He’s looking at me absolutely speechless

He can’t quite believe what he’s trying to pull out of the slit

I get up, wondering what he’s smiling about

He’s shaking his head at this point with the biggest of grins

I look down the back of the TV and that’s where it was

In all its glory: my thousand quid

It’s the end of something I did not want to end

Beginning of hard times to come

But something that was not meant to be is done

And this is the start of what was

About two this afternoon, the last of the people left my house

'Cause they never stop chatting 'til all the racket’s gone

I really feel like things clicked into place at some point

Or maybe it’s the fact that me and Alison really got on

Or maybe it’s that I realised that it is true

No-one's really there fighting for you in the last garrison

No-one except yourself that is, no-one except you

You are the one who’s got your back 'til the last deed’s done

Scott can’t have my back 'til the absolute end

'Cause he’s got to look out for what over his horizon

He’s gotta make sure he’s not lonely, not broke

It’s enough to worry about keeping his own head above

I shut the door behind me, huddled up in my coat

Condensation floating off my breath, squinted out the sun

My jeans felt a bit tight, I think I washed them too high

I was gonna be late, so I picked up my pace to run

It’s the end of something I did not want to end

Beginning of hard times to come

But something that was not meant to be is done

And this is the start of what was

It’s the end of something I did not want to end

Beginning of hard times to come

But something that was not meant to be is done

And this is the start of what was

It’s the end of something I did not want to end

Beginning of hard times to come

But something that was not meant to be is done

And this is the start of what was

It’s the end of something I did not want to end

Beginning of hard times to come

But something that was not meant to be is done

And this is the start of what was
