Текст песни Something For Everything (Bill Chinnock) с переводом

I saw Bethlehem

In the burned out ruins

Of an East side adobe church

Warmed my hands on Houston Street

Watched the day give birth

Made my bed in a doorway

Under a neon sign

Electric six foot letters

Blinking in my mind

There’s something for everybody

Something for young and old

The streets are filled with money

The sidewalks paved in gold

Picked up yesterday’s newspaper

I went down to apply for a job

The superintendent got crazy

Chased me away with his dog

Bearded and wrinkled

I could stand it no more

I pulled out a water pistol

And squirted his door

I ran down the street

With a big dog at my feet

There’s something for everybody

Something for young and old

The streets are filled with money

The sidewalks paved in gold

Unemployment sent me to welfare

Welfare demanded some proof

I was so drunk

I couldn’t even remember my name

I tried, but it ain’t no use

An El Dorado roared blindly by

Leopard glass packs tore the sky

An ancient old lady

Heard the news and cried

And there’s something for everybody

Something for young and old

The streets are filled with money

The sidewalks paved in gold
