A Lady of a Certain Age Lyrics. A lady of a certain age
|
Back in the day you had been part of the smart setYou'd holidayed with kings, dined out with starletsFrom London to New York, Cap Ferrat to CapriIn perfume by Chanel and clothes by GivenchyYou sipped camparis with David and PeterAt Noel's parties by Lake GenevaScaling the dizzy heights of high societyArmed only with a cheque-book and a family tree You chased the sun around the Cote d'AzurUntil the light of youth became obscuredAnd left you on your own and in the shadeAn English lady of a certain ageAnd if a nice young man would buy you a drinkYou'd say with a conspiratorial wink"You wouldn't think that I was seventy?"And he'd say, "no, you couldn't be!" You had to marry someone very very richSo that you might be kept in the style to whichYou had all of your life been accustomed toBut that the socialists had taxed away from youYou gave him children, a girl and a boyTo keep your sanity a nanny was employedAnd, when the time came, they were sent awayWell, that was simply what you did in those days You chased the sun around the Cote d'AzurUntil the light of youth became obscuredAnd left you on your own and in the shadeAn English lady of a certain ageAnd if a nice young man would buy you a drinkYou'd say with a conspiratorial wink"You wouldn't think that I was sixty-three?"And he'd say, "no, you couldn't be!" Your son's in stocks and bonds and lives back in SurreyFlies down once in a while and leaves in a hurryYour daughter never finished her finishing schoolMarried a strange young manOf whom you don't approveYour husband's hollow heart gave out one Christmas DayHe left the villa to his mistress in MarseillesAnd so you come hereTo escape your little flatHoping someone will fill your glassAnd let you chat about how You chased the sun around the Cote d'AzurUntil the light of youth became obscuredAnd left you on your own and in the shadeAn English lady of a certain ageAnd if a nice young man would buy you a drinkYou'd say with a conspiratorial wink"You wouldn't think that I was fifty-three?"And he'd say, "no, you couldn't be!" |
Когда-то Вы были в кругу избранных:Отдыхали с королями, обедали со звёздами кино,От Лондона до Нью-Йорка, от Кап-Феррат до Капри,С парфюмом от Шанель и платьями от Живанши...Вы потягивали кампа́ри1 в компании Дэвида и ПитераНа вечеринках Ноэля у Женевского озера,Отмеряя головокружительные высоты высшего общества,Вооружённая лишь чековой книжкой и родословной... Вы гнались за солнцем вокруг Лазурного берега,Пока огонь молодости не погасИ не оставил Вас в одиночестве и в тени,Английскую леди в возрасте...И, если бы приятный молодой человек угостил Вас напитком,Вы бы сказали, заговорщически подмигнув:«Вы бы не подумали, что мне семьдесят?»И он бы ответил: «Нет, не может быть!» Вам пришлось выйти замуж за кого-то очень богатого,Для того, чтобы придерживаться стиля, к которомуВы всю жизнь себя приучали, но который впоследствииСоциалисты своими налогами отобрали у Вас...Вы подарили мужу детей: девочку и мальчика;Чтобы уберечь ваше здравомыслие, была нанята няня,И, когда пришло время, детей отправили восвояси...Что ж, это — просто то, чем Вы занимались в те дни: Вы гнались за солнцем вокруг Лазурного берега,Пока огонь молодости не погасИ не оставил Вас в одиночестве и в тени,Английскую леди в возрасте...И, если бы приятный молодой человек угостил Вас напитком,Вы бы сказали, заговорщически подмигнув:«Вы бы не подумали, что мне шестьдесят три?»И он бы ответил: «Нет, не может быть!» Ваш сын работает на бирже и живёт в Са́ррей, 2Прилетает изредка и улетает в спешке...Ваша дочь так и не закончила пансион благородных девиц,И вышла замуж за странного молодого человека,Которого Вы не одобряете...Сердце вашего мужа отказало однажды на Рождество;Он оставил свою виллу любовнице в Марселе,И поэтому Вы приходите сюда,Чтобы вырваться из своей крохотной квартиркиВ надежде, что кто-то наполнит ваш бокалИ позволит Вам поговорить о том, как... Вы гнались за солнцем вокруг Лазурного берега,Пока огонь молодости не погасИ не оставил Вас в одиночестве и в тени,Английскую леди в возрасте...И, если бы приятный молодой человек угостил Вас напитком,Вы бы сказали, заговорщически подмигнув:«Вы бы не подумали, что мне пятьдесят три?»И он бы ответил: «Нет, не может быть!» |

A Lady of a Certain Age Listen Song lyrics -
Back in the day you had been part of the smart set
You'd holidayed with kings, dined out with starlets
From London to New York, Cap Ferrat to Capri
In perfume by Chanel and clothes by Givenchy
You sipped camparis with David and Peter
At Noel's parties by Lake Geneva
Scaling the dizzy heights of high society
Armed only with a cheque-book and a family tree
You chased the sun around the Cote d'Azur
Until the light of youth became obscured
And left you on your own and in the shade
An English lady of a certain age
And if a nice young man would buy you a drink
You'd say with a conspiratorial wink
You wouldn't think that I was seventy
And he'd say,no, you couldn't be!
You had to marry someone very very rich
So that you might be kept in the style to which
You had all of your life been accustomed to
But that the socialists had taxed away from you
You gave him children, a girl and a boy
To keep your sanity a nanny was employed
And when the time came they were sent away
Well that was simply what you did in those days
You chased the sun around the Cote d'Azur
Until the light of youth became obscured
And left you on your own and in the shade
An English lady of a certain age
And if a nice young man would buy you a drink
You'd say with a conspiratorial wink
You wouldn't think that I was sixty three
And he'd say,no, you couldn't be!
Your son's in stocks and bonds and lives back in Surrey
Flies down once in a while and leaves in a hurry
Your daughter never finished her finishing school
Married a strange young man of whom you don't approve
Your husband's hollow heart gave out one Christmas Day
He left the villa to his mistress in Marseilles
And so you come here to escape your little flat
Hoping someone will fill your glass and let you chat about how
You chased the sun around the Cote d'Azur
Until the light of youth became obscured
And left you all alone and in the shade
An English lady of a certain age
And if a nice young man would buy you a drink
You'd say with a conspiratorial wink
You wouldn't think that I was fifty three
And he'd say,no, you couldn't be!

Это интересно: Название "Divine comedy", по сути, является псевдонимом композитора, певца и музыканта Нила Хэннона (р. 7 ноября 1970), скрестившего в своей музыке элементы "новой волны" и влияния Скотта Уолкера, Моррисси и "Electric light orchestra". Именно Хэннон был основателем этого проекта, а зачастую и единственным его участником. Группа появилась на свет в 1989 году в формате трио, и помимо Нила в ее... подробнееwebkind.ru
