Текст песни The Communists Have the Music (They Might Be Giants) с переводом

I got handed an Ayn Rand sandwich

Straight from the can, it tasted so bland

I asked a lass to pass me a glass

Of Engels' Conditions of the Working Class

Right away they dragged me to the committee

To explain my un-American activity

They’re gonna see they made a mistake

If they’d only let me play my mixtape

I’m not partial to the martial

Or the plutocrats, in their beaver hats

And the fascists have the outfits

But I don’t care for the outfits

What I care about is music

And the communists have the music

I hear a melody

And just as suddenly

I know who I’m supposed to be

I don’t need a rationale

To sing «The Internationale»

I only need to plug in the headphone jack

So I can listen to my backing track

I’m not jealous of the zealous

Or anarchics with guitar picks

And the fascists have their outfits

But I don’t care for the outfits

What I care about is music

And the communists have the music

Yes, the communists have the music

Oh, the communists have the music

I hear a melody

And just as suddenly

I know who I’m supposed to be

I’m not partial to the martial

Or the plutocrats, in their beaver hats

And the fascists have the outfits

But I don’t care for the outfits

What I care about is music

And the communists have the music

Yes, the communists have the music

Oh, the communists have the music
