Текст песни You Curl Your Toes in Fun/Childhood Heroes/Stabs Instrumental (Jethro Tull) с переводом

You curl your toes in fun

As you smile at everyone

You meet the stares, you’re unaware

That your doings aren’t done

And you laugh most ruthlessly

As you tell us what not to be

But how are we supposed to see

Where we should run?

I see you shuffle in the courtroom with

Your rings upon your fingers

And your downy little sidies

And your silver-buckle shoes

Playing at the hard case

You follow the example

Of the comic-paper idol

Who lets you bend the rules

So, come on ye childhood heroes!

Won’t you rise up from the pages

Of your comic-books, your super crooks

And show us all the way

Well! Make your will and testament

Won’t you join your local government?

We’ll have Superman for president

Let Robin save the day

You put your bet on number one

And it comes up every time

The other kids have all backed down

And they put you first in line

And so you finally ask yourself

Just how big you are

And you take your place in a wiser world

Of bigger motor cars

And you wonder who to call on

So! Where the hell was Biggles

When you needed him last Saturday?

And where were all the sportsmen

Who always pulled you though?

They’re all resting down in Cornwall

Writing up their memoirs

For a paper-back edition

Of the Boy Scout Manual
