Текст песни Rockland (The Lilac Time) с переводом

Hold back the edges of your gowns

You asked for hell — elected clowns

With no dissent for how things are

Or gently pushed beneath a car

Our leaders are assassin’s friends

And we aren’t needed for their ends

No industry or open wars

They cut health care and lock the doors

But I’m with you if you’re with me

Take my hand

I’m with you in Rockland

I’m with you in Rockland

And don’t it make you wanna howl?

So, where’s the champion of Mary Queen O’Scots?

And liberty and chivalry?

To damn the MI5 for C.N.D

I need someone with a memory

Of what we used to mean by morally

And all we can find is old Jack Ruby

When the victor rewrites history

The napalm lights his vanity

I’m with you if you’re with me

Take my hand

I’m with you in Rockland

I’m with you in Rockland

And don’t it make you wanna howl?

Josephine, the singer called

She made a comeback in the psychiatric ward

Where the shock is mightier than the sword

And the adverts obscure the blackboard

And chalk is something we can’t afford

And the only class is how to be bored

But my hopes are still on the soul horse

This is my Woody for president waltz

'Cause I’m with you if you’re with me

Take my hand

I’m with you in Rockland

I’m with you in Rockland

And don’t it make you wanna howl?

I’m with you in Rockland

I’m with you in Rockland

And don’t it make you wanna howl?
