Текст песни Mayday In Arcadia (Mark gillespie) с переводом

In the distance, in the gloom

There’s a long procession of deep-sea divers

Coming from an air-tight room

Their dancing lights give a false impression

It will all be over soon

And Baby Ben has just struck ten

Doc says I’ve only got to do one more session

Some guy named de Sade

Man, he’s taking it hard

But I guess he had to learn his lesson

And Neptune’s in his palace at the bottom of the sea

And his priests warn Plato that their prophesies

Are turning out to be no fantasy

They say the world will end at 8 o’clock

Father Time gave his blessing at 3

And they’ve barred the windows

And they’re locking the doors

And they’re waiting for the shock just like me

And Helen of Troy, she’s making love with a boy

Her malice hiding her jealousy

There’s not a cloud in sight, it’s a sunny day

And there’s mermaids all along the shore waiting

Yeah, but they’re not sure exactly what for

Virgil’s reading back through the Iliad

And Achilles is checking his heel

And God has lost any will that he had

He’s just wishing he had 4 wheels

And all the angels in Arcadia

Man, they’re screaming for a better deal

They’d like to strike, they say it’s their right

But instead they’re all made to kneel

And the sun’s setting lower

And the wind starts moaning

Who could have known that those red-hot stones’d

Be raining down like flakes of snow

And while they sleep hot death is blown

A fiery curtain is closing the show

Noah’s boat, it can’t even float

He’s on the Royal Telephone

God’s chariots, they can’t even carry it

Can’t even get a dial tone

And it’s mayday in Arcadia

All the rats are leaving home

And it’s mayday in Arcadia

Man, you’d better get back to your home

It’s mayday in Arcadia

Rats!

What else can I say to you?

Either you dig it, or you don’t

It’s mayday in Arcadia

Ah! You’d better go back to your home
