Текст песни Halfwit (Strangled Darlings) с переводом

I was walking the big easy, all by myself

A black boy tapped a dance

Out on a wooden shelf

He said you looked like someone

Could commit a crime

I kindly tipped my hat back

And flipped a shiny dime

Halfwit sing your man to sleep

Then go break the law

Halfwit sing your man to sleep

Then go break the law

Hold on, hold on, hold on

Catfish in the market, crawdad etouffee

It hides the stench of murder, on a sunny day

Cobblestone and raindrops, a princess in trance

The blackest bargain incest

A simple game of chance

Went looking for a man

Went missing long ago

Johnny Sunshine singer

Johnny Secret Doe

They said he cut the heart out

Of a man under a spell

At Times Square and at midnight

Above the gates of hell

Memory’s what you make it

Story for yourself

You talk a pretty angel

Till the devil come himself

Mister Louis Cypher clearing up the books

Kindly takes his flock to home

And shepherd and his crook
