Текст песни Sitting Targets (Peter Hammill) с переводом

We can talk about it in the car;

We can talk about it with the drive

Keep your eyes on the road up ahead

Don’t forget what we said about staying alive

If we’d been stuck just a few hours more

I’d have cracked up, I’d say

No, you never can tell when it’s coming;

It’s so hard getting out of the way;

To be sitting targets is surely

No better than running away…

Sitting targets in the car

I’ll be thinking about it —

Not so far to, not so far to

Not so far to drive

Not so far to drive

Ooh, this time we made our getaway

We’d been stalling for too long

Keep your eyes on the road up ahead (oh yeah)

While I try to forget what’s been going wrong

What’s been going on…

You’d better check up on the CB

See what Tail-End Charlie say:

«Oh you never can tell how it’s going

No you never can see how it’s been

But to stay sitting targets is surely

No better than living a dream.»

Sitting targets in the car

I’ve been thinking it over, it’s

Not so far to, not so far to

Not so far to drive

In the car…

We can talk about it in the car

Surely we can talk about it some other time

Oh, keep your eyes on the road up ahead —

I don’t seem to be able to use mine

And I’m losing control of my body

And I’m running scared…

Oh, we’re left with a black-and-white movie

A positional state of affairs

An obsessional interest in moving

Just to prove that we’re there

Sitting targets in the car

I’ll be thinking about it, not so far to drive

Sitting targets in the car

I’ve been thinking it over, it’s

Not so far, not so far

Not too far to drive
