Текст песни The Rocking Chair (The Beautiful South) с переводом

Here I walk, here I walk

Looking for an angel’s wings in the den of the hawk

Here I am, here I am

With a choice between an also ran and a sunbed tan

And you thought you’d found your own little look

How I misjudged, how I mistook

And you thought you’d found the style of your hair

I guess tonight I’ll take

I’ll take these troubles to the rocking chair

So I’ll take these high-heeled shoes

And yes, I’ll take these traditional views

I’ll take this deep despair

Of a thirty-year-old square to the rocking chair

Here I sit, here I sit

Looking for a warming smile in a house of cold wit

Here I stand, here I stand

Torn between the balding drunk and no man’s land

And they’ll tell you when you’ve reached your peak

Where the wolf-whistle rung, there’s a deafening shriek

Blowing kisses into thin air

I guess tonight I’ll take

I’ll take these troubles to the rocking chair

So I’ll take this awkward stance

And I’ll take this sexless dance

I’ll take this deep despair

Of a thirty-year-old square to the rocking chair

Am I skinny? A shade too fat?

Mm, my friend the cat knows all about that

Am I happy? (Here I sit) Just a little sad? (Here I sit)

Mm, my friend the cat knows all about that (Looking for a warming smile in a

house of cold wit)

Am I skinny? (Here I walk) A shade too fat? (Here I walk)

My friend the cat knows all about that (Looking for an angel’s wings in the den

of the hawk)

Are you happy? Are you happy?

Just a little sad?

Are you happy? Are you happy?

Just a little sad?
