Текст песни Feet on the Ground (Rickie Lee Jones) с переводом

she was a happy child

funny and bright and wild

and all of the grown-ups agreed

she was ‘Most Likely To Succeed

in Ruling the World!'

now she calls you on the phone

she’s never there alone

who is he, why is he there, that man?

she steals everything she can

easily buy it. ‘mother,

can you send some cash?'

here, World Domination Rules

get in line with these fools

we’ll show you how much it costs

twice as much as we’ve lost

this is no way to live

and I have no more to give

til she’s got her

Feet On The Ground

life is a merry-go-round

taking her up so high

the angels cry

she’s got her

Feet On The Ground

life is a merry-go-round

taking her up so high

the angels cry

the story goes on and on

nobody’s right or wrong

there somebody’s aunt

somebody’s dad,

they spent the last dollar they had

trying to bring someone home

you, you call her on the phone

you’re always here alone.

a daily reminder of what it’s cost

how much you’ve given,

how much you’ve lost

trying to save her-

-I'll just send you the cash.

now world domination’s lost.

and this is what it costs.

twice as much as we’ve had

but daddy, it’s not that bad

how does she survive

why is she left alive?

til she’s got her

feet on the ground

life is a merry-go-round

taking her up so high

the angels cry

but she’s gonna get her

Feet On The Ground

life is a merry-go-round

taking her up so high

that you hear the angels cry
