Evo nesto malo od dobrog starog Leonarda:
THE PARTISAN
when they poured across the border
i was cautioned to surrender,
this i could not do;
i took my gun and vanished.
i have changed my name so often,
i\'ve lost my wife and children
but i have many friends,
and some of them are with me.
an old woman gave us shelter,
kept us hidden in the garret,
then the soldiers came;
she died without a whisper.
there were three of us this morning
i\'m the only one this evening
but i must go on;
the frontiers are my prison.
oh, the wind, the wind is blowing,
through the graves the wind is blowing,
freedom soon will come;
then we\'ll come from the shadows.
les allemands e\'taient chez moi, [the germans were at my home]
ils me dirent, \"signe toi,\" [they said, \"sign yourself,\"]
mais je n\'ai pas peur; [but i am not afraid]
j\'ai repris mon arme. [i have retaken my weapon.]
j\'ai change\' cent fois de nom, [i have changed names a hundred times]
j\'ai perdu femme et enfants [i have lost wife and children]
mais j\'ai tant d\'amis; [but i have so many friends]
j\'ai la france entie\'re. [i have all of france]
un vieil homme dans un grenier [an old man, in an attic]
pour la nuit nous a cache\', [hid us for the night]
les allemands l\'ont pris; [the germans captured him]
il est mort sans surprise. [he died without surprise.]
oh, the wind, the wind is blowing,
through the graves the wind is blowing,
freedom soon will come;
then we\'ll come from the shadows.
EVERYBODY KNOWS
everybody knows that the dice are loaded
everybody rolls with their fingers crossed
everybody knows that the war is over
everybody knows the good guys lost
everybody knows the fight was fixed
the poor stay poor, the rich get rich
that\'s how it goes
everybody knows
everybody knows that the boat is leaking
everybody knows that the captain lied
everybody got this broken feeling
like their father or their dog just died
everybody talking to their pockets
everybody wants a box of chocolates
and a long stem rose
everybody knows
everybody knows that you love me baby
everybody knows that you really do
everybody knows that you\'ve been faithful
ah give or take a night or two
everybody knows you\'ve been discreet
but there were so many people you just had to meet
without your clothes
and everybody knows
everybody knows, everybody knows
that\'s how it goes
everybody knows
everybody knows, everybody knows
that\'s how it goes
everybody knows
and everybody knows that it\'s now or never
everybody knows that it\'s me or you
and everybody knows that you live forever
ah when you\'ve done a line or two
everybody knows the deal is rotten
old black joe\'s still pickin\' cotton
for your ribbons and bows
and everybody knows
and everybody knows that the plague is coming
everybody knows that it\'s moving fast
everybody knows that the naked man and woman
are just a shining artifact of the past
everybody knows the scene is dead
but there\'s gonna be a meter on your bed
that will disclose
what everybody knows
and everybody knows that you\'re in trouble
everybody knows what you\'ve been through
from the bloody cross on top of calvary
to the beach of malibu
everybody knows it\'s coming apart
take one last look at this sacred heart
before it blows
and everybody knows
everybody knows, everybody knows
that\'s how it goes
everybody knows
oh everybody knows, everybody knows
that\'s how it goes
everybody knows
everybody knows
