Albert Hammond - The Free Electric Band Albert Hammond - The Free Electric Band |
*** Autor textu: Mike Hazlewood *** Autor hudby: Albert Hammond | My father is a doctor, he's a family man
My mother works for charity whenever she can
They're both good clean Americans who abide by the law
And they both stick up for liberty and they both support the war
My happiness was paid for when they laid their money down
For summers in a summer camp and winters in the town
= Otec je doktor, je to rodinne založený muž
= Matka pracuje pre charitu kedykoľvek môže
= Obaja sú správni američania, čo dodržujú zákon
= A obaja sa zástávajú slobody a pritom obaja podporujú vojnu
= Zaplatili mi šťastie vyhadzovaním peňazí
= Na letá v letnom tábore a zimy v meste
My future in the system was talked about and planned
But I gave it up for music and the Free Electric Band
= Moja budúcnosť v spoločnosti bola prediskutovaná a naplánovaná
= Ale ja som sa jej vzdal pre hudbu a Free Electric Band
I went to school in hand-washed shirts with neatly ordered hair
And the school was big and newly built and filled with light and air
And the teacher taught us values that we had to learn to keep
And he clipped the ear of many idle kid who went to sleep
Then my father organised for me a college in the east
But I went to California, the sunshine and the beach
= Chodil som do školy v ručne vypraných košeľách s úhľadne upraveným účesom
= A Škola bola veľká, čerstvo postavená, plná svetla a vzduchu
= A učiteľ nás učil hodnotám, ktoré sme si mali osvojiť
= A pristrihol ucho nejednému lenivému decku, čo zaspalo
= Potom mi otec zariadil univerzitu na východe
= No ja som ušiel do Kalifornie, za slnkom a plážou
My parents and my lecturers could never understand
Why I gave it up for music and the Free Electric Band
= Rodičia a profesori nikdy nedokázali pochopiť
= Prečo som sa toho vzdal pre hudbu a Free Electric Band
Well, they used to sit and speculate upon their son's career
A lawyer or a doctor or a civil engineer
Just give me bread and water, put a guitar in my hand
'cause all I need is music and the Free Electric Band
= Vysedávali a uvažovali nad kariérou svojho syna
= Právnik či doktor, či stavebný inžinier
= Dajte mi len chlieb, vodu a gitaru do ruky
= Lebo všetko čo potrebujem je hudba a Free Electric Band
My father sent me money, and I spent it very fast
On a girl I met in Berkeley in a social science class
And we learnt about her body, but her mind we didn't know
Until deep rooted attitudes and morals began to show
She wanted to get married even though she never said
But I knew her well enough by now to see inside her head
= Otec mi posielal peniaze a ja som ich rýchlo míňal
= Na dievča, čo som spoznal v Berkeley na hodine Sociálnych vied
= Preberali sme jej telo, ale jej myšlienky sme nerozoberali
= Pokiaľ hlboko zakorenené pomery a morálka nezačali vychádzať na povrch
= Chcela sa vydať aj keď to nikdy nespomenula
= Ale ja som ju dovtedy spoznal dosť na to, aby som jej videl do hlavy
She'd settle for suburbia and a little patch of land
So I gave her up for music and the Free Electric Band
= Usadila by sa na predmestí a malom kúsku zeme
= Tak som ju opustil pre hudbu a Free Electric Band |
