Текст песни Singapore (Harry James Angus) с переводом

There’s gotta be more than this she said

As she cooks your fish and chips

And you said I’m an accountant

But on the weekend I sail sailing ships

The baker sees the world awake

Every morning from its dreams

And the truckie drives across the land

From the mountain to the sea

Oh You gotta make that money

Is this what you wanna be?

It doesn’t matter angelina

Won’t you spend a while with me?

And oh, are you happy

Are you happy my dear?

Life is like a fish

That is very hard to spear

Oh Singapore

Do you hear the pirates roar

McDonalds and Christian Dior

Where there used to be the finest whores

And when the trade winds blow

You look up from your desk

To where your grandfather sailed for war

In 1944

And He didn’t wanna be famous

And He didn’t want no gold

He died for Queen and country

Like the warriors of old

And Oh, are you happy

Are you happy my dear?

Life is like a fish

That is very hard to spear

Oh, oh I love you

And While the seas are booming

You should try to live a life

That could be turned into a movie

There are millions of fires

In the frangipani night

And One day we will die

By dust or by the wire

By friendship or by tiredness

By water or by fire

Let’s live a lovely life

And let’s make love tonight

And oh, are you happy

Are you happy my dear?

Life is like fish

That is very hard to spear
