Текст песни: Shanty Song + перевод

Fallow from the loss of sun

Fields turn into spoil

And sought along the arid plains

For food left in the soil

And all the mothers, fathers with

Their water and their wood

Give life to an inheritor

Relieved not understood

I come from a line of crooks

Bitter and brittle men

So I won’t be around when those

Wedding bells ring

But I’m mean and marked up enough

To give you my hand

With none of my roots showing

So leave me a little privacy

Don’t call, don’t come around at all

Leave me a little decency

And call off all your dogs

Or their collars are coming off

Following the loss of laws

Saying in their turn

For every man to live his life

She’ll have to last and burn

And all the brothers, sisters, mothers

Fathers and their sons, will

Be passed along the daily deal

Alike the day before

La da, da da, da da, da da, la da

Don’t get like that

Don’t recoil back in silence

All that I ask is just a couple of seconds

In private

Leave me a little privacy

Don’t call, don’t come around at all

Leave me a little decency

And call off all your dogs

Oh, I’m sorry darlin', you’re just gonna have to choose

It’s either me or the elephant in the room

I can’t stand to lose ya, I can’t stand to lose ya

But it’s either me or the elephant in the room
