Текст песни [When I] Box The Days [Up] (Mike Doughty) с переводом

I fell in love with the day drunk

Yeah, the whole day long

Well she kissed the book

All the morning through

And then she sang out the words to the wrong song

Oh, your love grips me like a golden vise

Or the clenches of a champion

I dreamed I’m in a ring at the Grand Palais

And then I sang out the words to the wrong song

And when I box the days up

Yeah, when I box the days up

Oh when I box the days up

When I box the days

Dreamed I was the king in Phnom Penh

And I was giving up my throne

All the people chatting on the muddy banks

Said I’m an okay king, and I sure can play the saxophone

Then I woke up in a motel

I was not so far from there

Heard the shower running through a closed door

And saw her dress laid across a desk chair

Yeah when we round the strays up

Oh when we round the strays up

Yeah, the asphalt soaks the rays up
