Текст песни Glass Spider (2018) (David Bowie) с переводом

Up until one century ago there lived

In the Zi Duang province of an eastern country

A glass-like spider

Having devoured its prey

It would drape the skeletons over its web

In weeks creating a macabre shrine of remains

Its web was also unique, in that it had many layers

Like floors in a building

At the top of this palace-like place

Assembled with almost apparent care

Were tiny, shining objects

Glass, beads, dewdrops

One could almost call it an altar

When the breeze blew through this construction

It produced sounds of wailing, crying

Tiny wails, tiny cries

The baby spiders would get scared

And search frantically for their mother

But the glass spider would have long gone

Having known that the babies

Would survive somehow on their own

Oh, the glass spider had blue eyes almost like a human’s

They shed tears at the wintered turn of the centuries

Don’t you hear this wasted cry, life is over you

(Mommy come back 'cause the water’s all gone)

But you’ve seen who’s in Heaven, is there anyone in Hell?

(Gone, gone, the waters all gone)

(Mommy come back 'cause it’s dark now)

(Oh-hoho-oh)

(Oh-hoho-oh)

Take care, take care

(Mommy come back 'cause the water’s all gone)

Somewhere she glows divine, somewhere she wakes alone

But you, you’ve promised in your loving eye

God it’s dark now

(Mommy come back 'cause it’s dark now)

(Ja ja ja ja ja)

(Ja ja ja ja ja)

(Ja ja ja ja ja)

Gone, Gone the water’s all gone

(Mommy come back 'cause the water’s all gone)

Stay low on the ground

The fire can drive you, savage and afraid

Spitting the dawn, come along before the animals awake

(Gone, gone, the water’s all gone)

(Mommy come back 'cause it’s dark now)

Run, run, we’ve been moving all night, rivers to the left

If your mama don’t love ya' then the riverbed might

Gone, gone, the water’s all gone

(Mommy come back 'cause the water’s all gone)

(Ja ja ja ja ja)

(Ja ja ja ja ja)

Gone gone the water’s all gone

Mommy come back 'cause the water’s all gone

Gone gone the water’s all gone

Mommy come back 'cause the water’s all gone

Gone gone the water’s all gone

Mommy come back 'cause the water’s all gone

Mommy come back 'cause it’s dark now

(Oh-hoho-oh)

(Oh-hoho-oh)

Mommy come back 'cause the water’s all gone

(Ja ja ja ja ja)

(Ja ja ja ja ja)

Mommy come back 'cause it’s dark now

(Ja ja ja ja ja)

(Ja ja ja ja ja)

Mommy come back 'cause the water’s all gone

(Ja ja ja ja ja)

(Ja ja ja ja ja)

Mommy come back 'cause it’s dark now

(Oh-hoho-oh)

(Oh-hoho-oh)

Mommy come back 'cause it’s dark now
