Текст песни Stranger (Ben Caplan) с переводом

When I was a child my mother

Would tuck me into bed

And each night as she kissed me

These are the words that she said

She said

Don’t go to bed with strangers

Don’t play with the dead

Always keep your wits sharp

Like the axe inside the shed

Yay diridiri day diridiri day

Yay diridiri day daydaday

Yiridaydayday yirididaydayday

Dayday dayday dayday

When I was just a schoolboy

My father, he spoke unto me

He said, Boychick, my son

Don’t trust anyone

And remember that nothing is free

«And the world is full of strangers

The world is full of dread

The world is full of charm and wits

And millions of tears you will shed»

Yay diridiri day diridiri day…

Well, when I was a young man

My professor at university

Said advice is corrupting

Don’t ever be trusting

Don’t show your emotion

Human suffering is an ocean

And it’s dark at the bottom of the sea

And there’s no such thing as a stranger

They’re equally backwards and wrong

Shapened axes, not wits

Bones are broken by sticks

And you never be free till you’re strong

Yay diridiri day diridiri day…

Well, young men grow older

And the world, it gets colder

Though it never was warm to begin

Don’t let down your guard

For the reaper works hard

And he will not take pause till you’re dead

Now I’m old and I’m rusty

My troubles like sand on a beach

They can’t be calculated

I always have waited

For something just out of reach

And I to myself am a stranger

My heart is an island of lead

My world is resounding

With miseries unbounding

There’s only one thing to be said

I’ll say hay diridiri day diridiri day…
