Текст песни Outside of a Small Circle of Friends (Phil Ochs) с переводом

Oh, look outside the window

There’s a woman being grabbed

They’ve dragged her to the bushes

And now she’s being stabbed

Maybe we should call the cops

And try to stop the pain

But Monopoly is so much fun

I’d hate to blow the game

And I’m sure

It wouldn’t interest anybody

Outside of a small circle of friends

Ridin' down the highway

Yes, my back is gettin' stiff

Thirteen cars are piled up

They’re hangin' on a cliff

Now maybe we should pull them back

With our towin' chain

But we gotta move and we might get sued

And it looks like it’s gonna rain

And I’m sure

It wouldn’t interest anybody

Outside of a small circle of friends

Sweatin' in the ghetto

With the colored and the poor

The rats have joined the babies

Who are sleepin' on the floor

Now wouldn’t it be a riot

If they really blew their tops?

But they got too much already

And besides we’ve got the cops

And I’m sure

It wouldn’t interest anybody

Outside of a small circle of friends

Oh, there’s a dirty paper

Using sex to make a sale

The Supreme Court was so upset

They sent him off to jail

Maybe we should help the fiend

And take away his fine

But we’re busy reading Playboy

And the Sunday New York Times

And I’m sure

It wouldn’t interest anybody

Outside of a small circle of friends

Smokin' marihuana

Is more fun than drinkin' beer

But a friend of ours was captured

And they gave him thirty years

Maybe we should raise our voices

Ask somebody why

But demonstrations are a drag

Besides we’re much too high

And I’m sure

It wouldn’t interest anybody

Outside of a small circle of friends

Oh, look outside the window

There’s a woman being grabbed

They’ve dragged her to the bushes

And now she’s being stabbed

Maybe we should call the cops

And try to stop the pain

But Monopoly is so much fun

I’d hate to blow the game

And I’m sure

It wouldn’t interest anybody

Outside of a small circle of friends
