Текст песни The Company Of Cowards (John Mellencamp) с переводом

I’m in the company of cowards

I’m in the company store

Bullet holes through the window

We can’t keep this company up anymore

A bucket of beer, a bucket of fools

A bucket of dark and broken rules

There’s a lot more to this than I ever thought

A bucket of trouble that’s what we’ve bought

The man in the moon this afternoon

Told secrets on you

I believe to be true

I’m in the company of cowards

I’m in the company of me and you

I saw you with Mr. Struggle Must Go On

In a bar down in the Keys

He was old and slow and couldn’t throw a punch

And you looked so musical last night in the breeze

You were showering him with your tender protection

With no regard for me

I was dining alone on the bread of sorrow

While you were making fat the old man and the sea

The man in the moon this afternoon

Told secrets on you I believe to be true

I’m in the company of cowards

I’m in the company of me and you

The Bible speaks of Heaven and Hell

And many frightening things

Politicians say «One more war

And the bells of freedom will start to ring»

Those stories you told by the waggin' of your chin

Time’s not so precious til it comes to an end

And silence is truth between me and you

With our demur well hidden, like two birds we flew

So cover your eyes old man in the moon

Unless you care to see what really is not true

You’re in the company of cowards

It’s hard telling what they will do

You’re in the company of cowards

You’re in the company of me and you
