Текст песни Words and Music (Paul Kelly) с переводом

I was standing in the schoolyard

I guess it was sometime in 1965

Just me and my friends listening to the radio

And a song came on called I feel fine

The playground sounds grew dim

The whole wide world seemed to fade

There was nothing but me and that heavenly sound

Burning in my brain

Words and Music — yeah, yeah

I was lying on the living room floor

With the sound way up on Highway 61

Then I heard my mother calling through the door

Saying, «Now, what about those dishes then, son?»

So I picked the needle up

And yelled out, «Just one more song to go»

Then I put the needle back down

At the start of Desolation Row

Words and Music — yeah, yeah

Now two things saved that crazy sailor

Trapped for days inside his hull

No food, no water, no nothing

Just his tongue rattling around inside his skull

Words and Music — yeah, yeah
