Текст песни: Father's Day + перевод

I rehearsed today down in the bay

With a bunch of singers

And a string section, too

Came home in the afternoon, sunk into my chair

Took in the sun, thinking about what a friend said

About bullshit versus more important issues

The doors all started buzzing

Caroline went downstairs, and a crackhead fled

Two FedEx packages were ripped to shreds

She filed a report and I called the building manager

And let her know, and the next morning

A neighbor came over

And we talked it over

We went to bed

Turned on CNN

In South Carolina

Nine were shot dead

The killer looks like a little boy

And not a man, so tonight

I can’t address nothing else that’s happening

Friday was the show

With Chuck and Steph

Last night was a fight with Andre Ward

And an overweight Paul Smith

A piece of Smith’s face went flying

In the ninth round

The ref stepped in, and the noise from the crowd

Was so intense, cause Steph Curry was in the house

And today is

Father’s Day

Called my dad

And he sounded okay

Told him I was recording

But that on Wednesday

Gonna go pull fish from the ocean, have a cookout

With Caroline in a brand new kitchen

Oh, today is

Father’s Day

Just talked with my dad

And he’s doing okay

And his girlfriend went to lunch

That’s all he needs, he’s eighty-one

He’s a simple man and full of love

And I miss him a bunch

Oh, today is

Father’s Day

Called my dad, and I’m so happy

That I can say

That after years of struggle

He’s one of my best friends

No matter what his faults

I will always love that man

And it’s Tuesday

And I’m dueting with Rachel

She’s penned down, and so is Neil, and so is Justin

Maybe they’re on to something

What is next?

And when will I face death?

Do I want kids? We both think «no»

But I hear them laughing on the playground at school

And I think about life

With all its pain and hurdles

I still love lily pads at the top of the pond

And the painted turtles

And I love Cat Stevens

And Neil Young’s songs

And I love Owen Ashworth’s music

When we’re driving along

And I think about life

With all its spewing venom

And I still love playing, that’s getting up

On stage and entertaining

I look to the sky

And all of its beautiful shades of blue

And I’m so happy to pass through these places

That have led me to you

Will I ever hear people say

Happy Father’s Day

Will I ever hear people say

Happy Father’s Day

Got the money, got the space

Got the right girl, everything’s in place

Will there ever be our kid out there

On the playground, laughing and playing

For half of my life

That playground

Has been my

Very favorite sound

They wake me in the morning

Then in the afternoon

I write music to the sound of them

During their after school programs in my living room

This morning, my world

Was so strange and quiet

Walked on the marina for exercise

I’ve been trying to maintain some kind of diet

My sister said my father’s

Skin is getting dry, that his hands are black and blue

Like my grandfather’s was

When I was five

I’m going to meet Caroline

Down the road for Chinese

We’ll go to the new hospital over there

And the cat still sleeps at the fish market across the street

And here we are, back in my room

Watching a movie on TV

And I’m looking for the picture of my sister’s kids in a garden

And it’s gotten me thinking
