Текст песни World (Dan Bern) с переводом

Meet me in the autumn way up in Puget Sound

We can get a cabin forty miles outside of town

We can do experiments of the scientific kind

Try survive atomic blasts without going blind

Every now and then we’ll head out to the deck

Breathe a little oxygen, ‘n just to check

If the World’s still there

If the World’s still there

If the World’s still there

If the World’s still floating by

Is the ground still around

Above our heads the sky

Maybe if the poets were the kings

Maybe if the honeybees were never more to sting

Maybe if the vampire could face the light of day

Maybe there’s some posture I should be in when I pray

Can we sit here and just wait it out

If you hear something give a shout

If the World’s still there

If the World’s still there

If the World’s still there

If the World’s still floating by

Is the ground still around

Above our heads the sky

And fields of clover, cliffs of Dover

Pause, rewind, release, do over

Fraud on my account

Check it out, make it good

In Denmark something’s rotten and in Monterrey there’s mold

Slaves still pickin cotton, drop my ass in the north pole

God damn the pusher man, God bless the child

Who’s got his own motor home and sleeps out in the wild

Wal Mart, Sam’s Club, Home Depot, yes

Meet me out front, we’ll give it our best

If the World’s still there

If the World’s still there

If the World’s still there

If the World’s still floating by

Is the ground still around

Above our heads the sky
