Текст песни Pretty Good Day (Loudon Wainwright III) с переводом

I slept through the night, I got through to the dawn

I flipped a switch & the light went on

I got out of bed, I put some clothes on

It was a pretty good day so far

I turned the tap, there was cold, there was hot

I put on my coat to go to the shop

I stepped outside & I didn’t get shot

It’s a pretty good day so far

I didn’t hear sirens or explosions

No murders coming in from those heavy guns

No UN tanks, I didn t see one

It’s a pretty good day so far

No snipers in windows, taking a peak

No people panic, running scared through the streets

I didn’t see any bodies without arms, legs, or feet

It’s a pretty good day so far

There was plasma & bandages & electricity

Food, wood & water & the air was smoke-free

No camera crews from my TV

Pretty good day so far

It was all such a strange sight to behold

Nobody was frightened, wounded, hungry, or cold

The children seemed normal, they didn’t look old

Pretty good day so far

I walked through a park & you would not believe it

There in the park, there were a few trees left

And on some branches, there were a few leaves

It’s a pretty good day so far

I slept through the night, I got through to the dawn

I flipped the switch & the light came on

I wrote down my dream & I made it this song

It’s a pretty good day so far
