Текст песни Pot Holes (Ezra Furman) с переводом

It’s a beautiful city

We’ve been living in lately

Never go to the South side

(Don't you go down to the South side)

And there’s pot holes

Sleeping in the black concrete

And your little rebel rebel’s

Just a pebble in a big stream

Yes, we’re living underneath a

World imperial empire

And it’s built on the flimsy web of

Your money and your desire

And yes we built this city on the ruins of

Rock and roll

One minute you’re driving on smooth pavement

Then you’re down in a dark pot hole

And if there’s black men sleeping on

Your white concrete

You go and see a ten dollar movie

Then you’re caught in the web of

The waking dream

It’s a beautiful city

But the streets are full of holes

I spend my whole life on the North side

(I don’t go down to the South side)

And I drive on the concrete

And I pay my taxes too

And I could write a letter to the mayor

But we both got a lot to do

And I admit it’s inconvenient

To get robbed in a combat zone

Well, shit, I had to cancel my credit card

Had to buy me a brand new phone

But it’s a beautiful city

And the cops are on our side

I mosey down to check out the

Angry mob just to keep myself occupied

And you can talk about Chicago

You can talk about New York

You can talk about London, England

You can have a nice day, take a walk in the park

But there’s always at least two

Different cities in your town

And if you can’t look at the dark one

Then you’ll spend your life living

Down in a dark pot hole
