Текст песни Floods of Tears (Loudon Wainwright III) с переводом

I’ll take this, «Make this room up» sign and hang it on the door

The place is looking ransacked — what was I looking for?

Get that woman in here now to pick after me

She’ll find some wires in the rug: A-D-G-B and E

Flip over to «Do not disturb», hang that one on the knob

I don’t want any bodies here, the joy’s become a job

I lure them in and throw them out — it went they way for years

You start out having a few laughs and soon it’s floods of tears

I call down to the front desk and put a block on the phone

I hear your voice long distance and then I know I’m alone

Talk show hosts and anchors are the company I keep

Until I draw the curtain and I shut them off to sleep

I don’t want a wake up call to get me out of bed

Sleep’s an undressed rehearsal — for this world I’ll play dead

Clean up this room, do not disturb, please no incoming calls

I lie in air conditioned state, my casket — grass mat walls

And I’ll take this, «Make this room up» sign and hang it on the door

The place is looking ransacked — what was I looking for?

Get that woman in here now to pick after me

She’ll find some wires in the rug: A-D-G-B and E

She’ll find some wires in the rug: A-D-G-B and E
