Текст песни Rook (XTC) с переводом

Rook, rook, read from your book

Who murders who and where is the treasure hid?

Crow, crow, spill all you know

Is that my name on the bell?

Rook, rook, gaze in the brook

If there’s a secret, can I be part of it?

Crow, crow, before I’ll let go

Say, is that my name on the bell?

Soar up high, see the semaphore from the washing lines

Break the code of the whispering chimneys and traffic signs

What’s the message that’s written under the base of clouds?

Plans eternal, I know you know so don’t blurt out loud

Rook, rook, by hook or by crook

I’ll make you tell me

What this whole thing’s about

Crow, crow, why can’t you show

If that’s my name on the bell?

On the wings of night, I fly too, above field and stream

My head bursting with knowledge 'til I wake from the dream

If I die and I find that I had a soul inside

Promise me that you’ll take it up on its final ride

Rook, rook, gaze in the brook

If there’s a secret, can I be part of it?

Crow, crow, before I’ll let go

Say is that my name on the bell?

Is that my name on the bell?
