Текст песни Zimbabwe Ruins (John Edmond) с переводом

Oh! The Green and White don’t fly no more in Salisbury

And the PM doesn’t drive a modest car

And they’ve changed the name and now it’s called Harare

And there’s strangers drinking in the Flagstaff bar

And the trash is piling up on all the pavements

And you can’t get milk and sugar, tea or bread

The country’s broke and hospitals are crowded

So if you get sick you have to share a bed

Zimbabwe ruins!

You were a wonder of the world

And they came from far to gaze upon your stones

Zimbabwe ruins!

Oh, how the tide has turned

Your heart is dead and all is left are bones

The Troopie statues, gone away from Cranborne

And the RLI aren’t based there any more

And the Gooks have made a compound out of Brady

And a beerhall in the quartermaster’s store

And someone blew the ammo at Nkomo

And Joshua and the boys have all been framed

And ZAPU want to have a go at ZANU

And I think that Muzorewa will be blamed

Zimbabwe ruins!

You were a wonder of the world

And they came from far to gaze upon your stones

Zimbabwe ruins!

Oh, how the tide was turned

Your heart is dead and all is left are bones

Your heart is dead and all is left are bones
