Текст песни: Expensive Being Poor + перевод

Expensive being poor

And the car is of the road

But I never had a car

But I pay more for food

But the supermarkets too far

It’s expensive being poor

Because everything cost more

Knocking on a closing door

It’s expensive being poor

Someone throw me down some crumbs

I will eat them off the floor

It’s expensive being poor

But I look good when I get desperate

And the box is on the fritz

It’s a black and white, or was

I tried taking it to bits

Now the picture’s just a grey fuss

It’s expensive being poor

Because everything cost more

Someone pick me off the floor

It’s expensive being poor

How can I live with what I did

When the cinema is 6 quid'

It’s expensive being poor

But I look good when I get desperate

Let the good times roll

Into a bottomless hole

With job friends and future

My ideal home furniture

Let the trumpets sound

As my house falls down

And the dust begins to clear

And I’m lying on the ground

And I’m standing on a path

In an unknown part of town

And the path leads me away

Over hills and out of sight

In the blazing sun by day

And the hanging moon by night

And I wind up in a place

Where I never have to count

And I never see the waves

As I push my leaking boat out

It’s expensive being poor

Because everything hurts more

Knocking on a bolted door

It’s expensive being poor

Someone throw me down some crumbs

I will eat them off the floor

It’s expensive being poor

But I look good when I get desperate
