Текст песни The Carnival (Jaya The Cat) с переводом

As the lights go down at the carnival

And the last ride grinds to a stop

All the bums are singing out 'the parting glass'

In the church across the lot

And all the thieves and the liars and the hypocrites

That brought her down so low

All file past the coffin man

Like wolves out on the prowl

And everyone has an alibi

No one was at the scene

The only eulogy is written out in spraypaint on the street

Lady liberty what the hell is happening

It seems like your torch it don’t burn for me

Your children are hungry and can’t find their way home

Whatever happened to the dream?

All the junkies and the drunks and the burned out punks

Out wandering the streets

Just looking for a five spot of happiness

To burn away their broken dreams

And in a penthouse apartment in a highrise

Standing high above the filth

You know the promised land just went and made a promise

To someone else

And the guns on the roof are silent for now

But you still don’t feel safe

Until you’re locked in your room five floors up man

Planning your escape
