Текст песни: Don't Set Foot over the Railway Track + перевод

Don’t set foot over the railway track

The heathens and the spin doctors are waiting round the back

The skies are always sullen and rain races to the tarmac

So don’t set foot over the railway track

Don’t set foot over the railway track

The grass isn’t green, it’s yellow and the pavement is all cracked

The graveyard’s in a coma, the church has got the blues

And Jesus has a nose-ring and Mary has tattoos

And girls paint their skins like corpses and have hair of scouring wire

And the men all look like demons, see them dancing round their fires

Every door has leprosy, every house has got the clap

So, don’t set foot over the railway track

Don’t set foot over the railway track

Hope you’ve not been speaking to the wrong kind of people, Jack

They’ll screw you soon as look at you if you let them gain a foot

This line’s God almighty’s way of saying that you’ll stay just where you’re put

'Cause they’re all paid up party members with a red streak like a river

They’re all standing there on their side shouting «promise and deliver»

They are papering their walls with pages of Kerouac

So, don’t set foot over the railway track

No, don’t set foot over the railway track
