Текст песни: Nobody Gives + перевод

I can’t understand why everybody’s quarreling

Nobody gives in case they lose face

And everybody’s guilty and everybody’s innocent

And the fact of it is nobody gives any more

It’s the same throughout all history

Nobody gives unless they receive

And nobody trusts or is willing to believe

And nobody gives or is willing to concede

Back in nineteen hundred and twenty-five

There were thousands of people struggling to survive

There was hunger, unemployment and poverty

Then in 1926 they decided to be free

So they all went on strike and

The workers told the unions, who blamed it on the government

The politicians blamed it on the strikers and the militants

Every one is guilty and everybody’s innocent

But the fact of it is nobody gives any more

Back in nineteen hundred and thirty-nine

There were scores of German military waiting in a line

And the Fatherland wanted what the world wouldn’t give

And then Hitler decided he could take what was his

So they all went to war and said

Kill all the left-wing intellectuals

Annihilate the Jews and wipe out their race

Eliminate the weak because they’re ineffectual

And the fact of it is nobody gives any more

I’m only sitting here watching it all go on

And listening to both sides

Yeah, why can’t we talk it out

Why can’t we sort it out

We’ll work it out if we try

Why can’t we sit down and work out a compromise

Why not negotiate and try to be civilised?

I’ll tell you why, because nobody gives a damn

Nobody listens and no one will understand

Yet I’m wondering, sitting here wondering

And listening to both sides

Why can’t we work it out?

Why can’t we sort it out?

We’ll work it out if we try

Why can’t we sit down and work out a compromise

Why not negotiate and try to be civilised?

I’ll tell you why, because nobody gives a damn

Nobody listens and no one will understand

Yet, I’m wondering, sitting here wondering

Yet I’m wondering, sitting here wondering

Listening to both sides

Nobody gives, nobody gives, nobody gives

The workers told the unions who blamed it on the government

The politicians blamed it on the strikers and the militants

Everybody’s guilty and everybody’s innocent

Nobody gives. Nobody gives a damn any more

The politicians, unions, workers and the militants

The fact of it is nobody gives any more
