Текст песни The Rat Age (T Bone Burnett) с переводом

I was conceived in a behavior station

Light years from civilization

I was born in oblivion

Half Balinese half Libyan

My father was a vector

My mother was a specter

As earthmen battle for their skins

I come down with the aliens

Is this not the rat age

The demented Photostat age

The time of no room

We’ve broken the genetic code

And left it bleeding by the road

Where murderers loom

You’ve changed your face you’ve changed your scent

You’ve even changed your fingerprint

Image is anything

But with all this electricity

You can’t change your publicity

The lies the many sing

Down in the greed plex

Under a spike of light

Stop at the slave port

Enter the death resort

No stimulation

Nothing but mono thought

Re simulation

Depop but don’t get caught

I dream to surf the rodeocean

Negotiate meaning with no emotion

If the kill is clean your still got time

To hone evil on the tooth of crime

I’m sober on the grapes of wrath

While running down the psycho path

Is this not a cruel world

Good morning little school girl

It’s the rat age
