Текст песни The Box (Sammy Rae) с переводом

If you put a woman in a box

And a man right there beside her

Tell ‘em both to play the leader

Who you think would take the lead?

Which of them will get their point across

And which of them would just have to «yes, indeed»?

If you put a man in a box

And a woman right beside him

Tell ‘em, «make the thing you’re made for

And you’ll make it out okay»

Which of them you think is sticking out

And which of them is kicking out the same damn day?

Ah, we are gathered here today to

Learn about our own race

Let us refrain from any bias

As the observations take place

If you put a woman in a box

And a man right there beside her:

«It's important that I spend tonight alone, is that okay?»

Which of them you think’ll understand

Which of them is standing in the other one’s way, hey?

If you put a woman in a box:

Oh, what does it mean to be a woman in a box

What is it like to be a man

Which of them you think is standing in the other one’s way

And who would understand

Ah, he sees her putting her dress on

Letting her hair out (ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh)

He takes a head full of high hopes

To the porch where it can air out

Oh, she’s got a half a mind to think it’ll

Never be the right time (ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh)

Oh, maybe. but they got a hell a lot of thinking

To do before nighttime

Woah, they come together, they say

Woah, oh, oh

Woah, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

And we sing it again

Woah, oh, oh

Woah, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh ah

We put a woman in a box

And a man right there beside her

And they took care of each other

And they don’t ask for too much

The woman and the man discover

Better ways to talk, like through song and touch

Ah, she’s having a happy box morning

Cooking with no pants on (ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh) (come here, baby)

He clears a little bit of living room floor

For them to dance on (ah, get your dance on) (ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh)

And we are gathered here today to

Learn about our own selves (ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh)

We are them little tiny children

Learning from our grown selves

Ah, we come together, we say

Woah, oh, oh

Woah, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Woah, oh, oh

Woah, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, ah
