Sharkey`s Day — текст песни (Laurie Anderson)





Sun`s coming up. Like a big bald head. Poking up over the grocery store. It`s Sharkey`s day. It`s Sharkey`s day today. Sharkey wakes up and Sharkey says: There was this man... And there was this road...And if only I could remember these dreams... I know they`re trying to tell me...something. Ooooeee. Strange dreams.(Strange dreams). Oh yeah. And Sharkey says: I turn around, it`s fear. I turn around aagain And it`s love. Oh yeah. Strange dreams. And the little girls sing:Oooee Sharkey. And the manager says: Mr. Sharkey? He`s not at his desk right now. Could I take a message? And the little girls sing:Oooeee Sharkey. He`s Mister Heartbreak. They sing: Oooeee Sharkey. Yeah. He`s Mister Heartbreak. And Sharkey says: All of nature talks to me. If I could just figure out what it was trying to tell me. Listen! Trees are swinging in the breeze. They`re talking to me. Insects are rubbing their legs together. They`re all talking. They`re talking to me. And short animals- They`re bucking up on their hind legs. Talking.
Talking to me. Hey! Look out! Bugs are crawling up my legs! You know? I`d rather see this on TV. Tones it down. And Sharkey says: I turn around, it`s fear. I turn around again, and it`s love. Nobody knows me. Nobody knows my name. And Sharkey says: All night long I think of those little planes up there. Flying around. UYou can`t even see them. They`re specks! And they`re full of tiny people. Going places. And Sharkey says: You know? I bet they could all land on the head of a pin. And the little girls sing: Ooooeee. Sharkey! He`s Mister Heartbreak. They sing: Oooeee. That Sharkey! He`s a slow dance on the edge of the lake. He`s a whole landscape gone to seed. He`s gone wild! He`s screeching tires on an oil slick at midnight on the road to Boston a long time ago. And Sharkey says: Lights! Camera! Action! TIMBER! At the beginning of the movie, they know they have to find each other. But they ride off in opposite directions. Sharkey says: I turn around, it`s fear. I turn around again, and it`s love. Nobody knows
me. Nobody knows my name. You know? They`re growing mechanical trees. They grow to their full height. And then they chop themselves down. Sharkey says: All of life comes from some strange lagoon. It rises up, it bucks up to it`s full height from a boggy swamp on a foggy night. It creeps into your house. It`s life! It`s life! I turn around, it`s fear. I turn around again, and it`s love. Nobody knows me. Nobody knows my name. Deep in the heart of darkest America. Home of the brave. Ha! Ha! Ha! You`ve already paid for this. Listen to my heart beat. And the little girls sing: Oooeee Sharkey. He`s a slow dance on the edge of the lake. They sing:Ooooeeee. Sharkey. HEe`s Mister Heartbreak. Paging Mr. Sharkey. White courtesy telephone please. And Sharkey says: I turn around, it`s fear. I turn around again, and it`s love. And the little girls sing:Ooooeee Sharkey. Yeah. On top of Old Smokey all covered with snow. That`s where I wanna, that`s where I`m gonna That`s where I`m gonna go.
