Текст песни Paris Warlike (Mischief Brew) с переводом

Paris 1933

It says here, «Army marches streets

A thousand soldiers seen today

All on the eve of May Day.»

I found a paper in the antique

«Paris Warlike On May Day Eve.»

This gasoline has met its match

«Any uprising will be smashed.»

The stirring guns and loaded tanks

So who shall cast the first red flag?

On yellow paper, black type:

«Troops are ready to smash a general strike.»

Up in the attic, under dust

I opened up a soldier’s trunk

And now the ghosts inside are all stirred up

Can almost hear those trumpets blare

They’re holding fire in the square

They’re standing on some general’s bones

And that’s all the AP wrote

I guess the people all went to sleep

I wonder, what did May First’s headlines read?

All on the paper in the antique

«Paris Warlike On May Day Eve.»
