Текст песни Oceanographer’s Choice (The Mountain Goats) с переводом

Well, guy in a skeleton costume

Comes up to the guy in the Superman suit

Runs through him with a broadsword

I flip the television off

Bring all the bright lights up

Turn the radio up loud

I don’t know why I’m so persuaded

That if I think things through

Long enough and hard enough

I’ll somehow get to you

But then you came in

And we locked eyes

You kicked the ashtray over as we came toward each other

Stubbed my cigarette out against the west wall

Quickly lit another

Look at that

Would you look at that

We’re throwing off sparks

What will I do when I don’t have you to hold onto in the dark?

Yes, everybody’s gonna need a witness

Everybody’s gonna need a little backup incase the scene gets nasty

You throw the attic window open

And I throw myself all around you

And night comes to Tallahassee

I don’t know why it’s gotten harder

To keep myself away

I thought I’d finally beat the feeling back

It all came back today

And then we fell down

And we locked arms

We knocked the dresser over as we rolled across the floor

I don’t mean it when I tell you

That I don’t love you anymore

Look at that

Would you look at that

The way the ceiling starts to swerve

What will I do when I don’t have you

When I finally get what I deserve
