Текст песни: Counterclockwise + перевод

Bought a pancho and sandals; I threw away my shoes

Brought a toothbrush and a razor I probably won’t use

Hit the track, turned my back on the Headline News

On my way to meet the moon on the bay

Where she’s risin' big and bold and blue

Well, the gringo boys got their dark sunglasses

And the girls on the beach are all shakin' their fingers

Cause no matter how dark the lenses, they can see

That the eyes and the minds of the boys

Are somewhere they ain’t supposed to be

The breeze is blowin' me a new perfume

It’s givin' my heart a little elbow room

And the kids are lightin' firecrackers

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The kids are lightin' firecrackers

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Now, no one recalls when the clock on the wall

Stopped wavin' its hands all day

Maybe it died of loneliness or boredom

Rest in peace, you know it’s better this way

The breeze is blowin' me a new perfume

It’s givin' my heart a little elbow room

And the kids are lightin' firecrackers

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The kids are lightin' firecrackers

Boom! Boom! Boom!

And all my friends are laughin'

At each other’s lies

And the sea is singin' lullabies

And everything’s slowin' down

Flowin' counterclockwise

(everything's slowin' down

Flowin' counterclockwise)

Everything’s slowin' down

Flowin' counterclockwise

Now, some of the Americans are ugly Americans

But we know we ain’t all that way

So we nod and we smile

And we wait a little while

Because they never stay anywhere

Very long anyway

The breeze is blowin' me a new perfume

It’s givin' my heart a little elbow room

And the kids are lightin' firecrackers

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The kids are lightin' firecrackers

Boom! Boom! Boom!

And all my friends are laughin'

At each other’s lies

And the sea is singin' lullabies

And everythin’s slowin' down

Flowin' counterclockwise

(everythin's slowin' down

Flowin' counterclockwise)

Everythin’s slowin' down

Flowin' counterclockwise…
