Текст песни: You'd a Thought (Leonard Cohen Must Die) + перевод

I’m running round in circles and I’m chasing my tail

Carving my initials with a rusty nail

Betraying my intentions man it happens without fail

You’d a' thought that I’d know better by now

It might be some dark secret I keep bottled up inside

Or just some miniscule transgression

I shouldn’t have tried to hide

It’s not the size that matters, it’s deceit she can’t abide

You’d a' thought that I’d know better by now

And of course she knows, ‘cause I can’t fool her

And I know she knows, ‘cause she don’t fool me

And she knows I know she knows and we might discuss it eventually

When the pressure builds ‘til it blows the seals all out from in between

You’d a' thought that we’d know better by now

You’d have thought that we’d know better

You’d have thought we’d understand

Through all the smoke and mirrors

I guess we do the best we can

Hiding out without a doubt it’s getting out of hand

You’d a' thought that we’d know better by now

And I’ve seen the phantoms hiding in the shadows in her eyes

It’s not that I’m not threatened, it’s just that I’m not surprised

«Good for the gander,"said the old folks, but they lied

You’d a' thought that we’d know better by now

They circle up the wagons, expressing deep dismay

When we know all the words that they can’t bring themselves to say

There’s so much they never tell you, there’s so much they hide away

You’d a' thought that they’d know better by now
