Текст песни: My Brother Makes The Noises For The Talkies + перевод

My brother makes the noises for the talkies,

There’s not a single noise that he can’t do:

If you’ve forgotten what a parrot’s squawk is —

Our Rod can demonstrate that noise for you.

He does the steam escaping from liners leaving dock;

He’ll fake a razor scraping or else a cuckoo clock.

My brother makes the noises for the talkies,

There’s not a single noise that he can’t do.

This is what I hear when I’m in bed —

A bang, a rattle, like thunder overhead,

The cat’s miaow, and dog’s bow-wow,

The only sleep I’ll get is when I’m dead.

A shot goes crack: a gale starts blowing,

A duck goes quack, a cock starts crowing.

You might think I’m kidding you,

But what I say is true —

Just listen; I’ll explain to you.

My brother makes the noises for the talkies,

There’s not a single noise that he can’t do:

I’m really not quite certain what a stork is —

But if it makes a noise, then Rod does too.

He makes the noise that steers make

When cowboys make a swoop:

He makes the noise that beards make

When used for straining soup.

My brother makes the noises for the talkies,

There’s not a single noise that he can’t do.

My brother can make any noise you wish:

Like two sealions shouting out for fish.

A horse’s neigh, a donkey’s bray,

He’s even got a noise for Lilian Gish.

The only time he made a bungle

Was when a tiger in the jungle

With mighty roar dropped dead

With bullets in its head

And Rod moo’d like a cow instead.

My brother makes the noises for the talkies,

There’s not a single noise that he can’t do:

You’ll know exactly what a popping cork is —

For Rod can pop a pretty cork for you.

He’ll imitate a setter, a pheasant or a grouse —

But what is even better is his noise for Mickey Mouse.

My brother makes the noises for the talkies,

There’s not a single noise that he can’t do.
