Текст песни I'm The Guy Who Found The Lost Chord (Jimmy Durante) с переводом

I was sitting at my piano, the other day

But my mind was ill at ease

They were coming to take it away that afternoon

I was all by myself in a mellow mood

Improvising symphonies

My right hand was playing Mozart’s minuet

And at the same time my left hand was playing; have a banana; from Carmen

And at the same time my mouth was whistling a sextet from Luicini

And at the same time What do you think my foot was doing?

While keeping time it was cracking walnuts; see I had to eat too

Then in the midst of all soliloquy

I found it, I found it

The Lost Chord, The Lost Chord!

So let’s celebrate I’m feeling great

I’m the guy that found the Lost chord

I’ll have my name in the hall of fame; cos I went and found that lost chord

Everyone knows Tchaikovsky wasn’t recognised for 300 years

Brahms wasn’t recognised for 400 years

Beethoven wasn’t recognised for 500 years

But I can’t wait that long I’ve only got two changes of clothes!

People said I was mad. but that didn’t trouble me

They said Mozart was mad

They said Puccini was mad

They said Louis was mad

Who’s Louis? My uncle, he was mad!

So let’s celebrate I’m feeling great

I’m the guy that found the Lost chord

You know it wasn’t easy finding that Lost chord

Working in my attic I didn’t sleep for days and days

I’d be in terrible shape if I hadn’t slept nights!

First I put an A flat with a B minor

Then I put a B minor with and F major

Then I put and F minor with a B major

Then I tried an A and a B and a B and a C

And a C and a D and a D and E and an E and a F

And a F and a G; What a piano no apostrophe’s !

And this is what I came up with (plays wrong chord)

What’s happened that isn’t the chord (plays wrong chord)

Neither is that (plays wrong chord)

Neither is that (plays wrong chord)

And neither is that! I lost the chord a catatstrophe

I’m gonna sit down on the keyboard of this piano until the chord is return

(sits down bum plays the right chord)

That’s it the lost chord! I found it, I found by sitting on the piano keyboard

Strange I usually play by ear!

So let’s celebrate I’m feeling great

I’m the guy that found the Lost chord
