Текст песни: Donny's Death Scene + перевод

The enemy came at us with a boot knife

We gave ‘em hell ‘with everything we got'

A distant ghostly cry

See the cameras pan the sky

And pastel stars change color in the lot

Fear, it takes the form of a stranger

And travels through like electricity

Now that we are headed out of danger

You’re shaking in the glare of the marquee

Donny’s fading in the bright

Bowling alley lights

I didn’t hear a shot ring out

But a man is down tonight

A man is down tonight

Like so many others of his generation

Taken from the world before his time

He played a perfect game

Gave the spelling of his name

To the cashier for the winner’s outdoor sign

And I can’t seem to pull it all together

So here we join him to his ocean bride

Inside her stranglehold

He was a faithful soldier

In the service of her rising morning tide

Now Donny’s fading in the bright

Bowling alley lights

I didn’t hear a shot ring out

But a man is down tonight

A man is down tonight
