Текст песни The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air (DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince) с переводом

Now this is a story all about how

My life got flipped turned upside down

And I’d like to take a minute, just sit right there

I’ll tell you how I became the prince of a town called Bel-Air

In West Philadelphia, born and raised

On the playground is where I spent most of my days

Chillin' out, maxin', relaxin' all cool

And all shootin' some b-ball outside of the school

When a couple of guys who were up to no good

Started makin' trouble in my neighborhood

I got in one little fight and my mom got scared

And said «You're movin' with your auntie and uncle in Bel-Air»

I begged and pleaded with her day after day

But she packed my suitcase and sent me on my way

She gave me a kiss and then she gave me my ticket

I put my Walkman on and said «I might as well kick it»

First class, yo, this is bad

Drinkin' orange juice out of a champagne glass

Is this what the people of Bel-Air livin' like?

Hmmm, this might be all right

But wait, I hear they’re prissy, bourgeois, and all that

Is this the type of place that they just sent this cool cat?

I don’t think so, I’ll see when I get there

I hope they’re prepared for the Prince of Bel-Air

Well, uh, the plane landed and when I came out

There was a dude looked like a cop standin' there with my name out

I ain’t tryin' to get arrested yet, I just got here

I sprang with the quickness like lightning, disappeared

I whistled for a cab and when it came near

The license plate said 'Fresh' and it had dice in the mirror

If anything I could say that this cab was rare

But I thought «Nah, forget it, yo holmes, to Bel-Air!»

I pulled up to the house about 7 or 8

And I yelled to the cabbie «Yo holmes, smell ya later»

Looked at my kingdom, I was finally there

To sit on my throne as the Prince of Bel-Air
