Текст песни Man-Sized Wreath (R.E.M.) с переводом

Turn on the TV and what do I see?

A pageantry of empty gestures all lined up for me — wow!

I’d have thought by now we would be ready to proceed

But a tearful hymn to tug the heart

And a man-sized wreath — ow!

Throw it on the fire

Throw it in the air

Kick it out on the dance-floor like you just don’t care, oh

Give me some

Wave the palms, steal the alms, fists in the air

A motorcade up Ninth Street shows the people that you care — ow!

Nature abhors a vacuum but what’s between your ears?

Your judgement clouded with fearful thoughts

A headlights and a deer — ow!

Throw it on the fire

Throw it in the air

Kick it out on the dance-floor like you just don’t care

Look what I’ve found

Everybody look around

Everybody looking like they just don’t care, oh

Give me some

Well I’m not deceived by pomp and odious conceit

But a tearful hymn to tug the heart

And a man-sized wreath-ow!

Throw it on the fire

Throw it in the air

Kick it out on the dance-floor like you just don’t care

Look what I’ve found

Everybody look around

Everybody looking like they just don’t care

Throw it on the fire

Throw it in the air

Kick it out on the dance-floor like you just don’t care, oh

Give me some

Give me some

Give me some
