Текст песни No World Order (Todd Rundgren) с переводом

Let me tell you 'bout the new world order

Not the kind to make you run for the border

It’s a new religion wrapped in a revolution

With a proven solution for your mental pollution

Don’t let no one tell you that god ain’t got a sense of humor

Someone said he’s pissed off, but that was just a rumor

I know he’s laughin’when the preacher starts to scream about

How trippin’is evil, and sex is unclean

Cars and gold bars and chains and diamond rings

These are the symbols, we want the real things

Peace in the soul and a natural insight

Things that please the mind and make the body feel right

Nature wants your life to go on long and on strong

To have children and show them where you went wrong

So if your life style leads you into hell or into prison

Wake up and listen, this is what you’re missing

Free will, we can’t seem to get our fill

We are beggers, we are choosers drunk on a lack of power

I believe in understanding, I’ve got to know where we’re landing

I’m takin’my survey now, hands up if you’re with me Do you want different choices? Can’t hear the quiet voices

Got to dim all the lights, turn down the volume

Put on a little more forgiveness, who’s gonna be my witness?

If we must endure this trial, someone is bound to touch us Do you want more sex, more comforting

A little more foreplay and afterglow, let my people go Everybody wants peace on the earth, children sheltering

Calling every man, every woman

We’re gonna take control of our own bodies

Peace breaks out in the battle of the sexes

We start to learn what the other one expects is We stay away from what the other one rejects is And have respect for individual perspectives

We’re gonna break out of this cycle of dependency

And liberate each other from a hopeless life of drudgery

And face up to the truth as we dispel all of this secrecy

And simplify the situation when we learn to speak plainly

We’re gonna take control of the machinery

Bad little actors that chew up the scenery

Job number one is gonna be findin’a way

That we can rave all night and meditate all day

Mankind’s strugglin’hard to see the light

To hear the voice of the spirit in the night

To lay down his heavy burden and pick up his soul power

And build a heaven on earth hour by hour by hour

Child protection, more careful mate selection

Everyone wants to be wanted by a natural father and mother

Lookin’for a sense of wonder, don’t let your faith go under

This is a beautiful world, if we could only give up fighting

The answer is surrender, every race, every gender

Beat our swords into plowshares on the anvil of a pure heart

We gotta have honest answers and the courage to take our chances

Opporunity’s knockin’loud, give me your attention
