“They Don’t Care About Us”

Skin head, dead head
Everybody’s gone bad
Situation, aggravation
Everybody’s allegation
In the suite, on the news
Everybody’s dog food
Bang bang, shot dead
Everybody’s gone mad

All I wanna say is that
They don’t really care about us
All I wanna say is that
They don’t really care about us

Beat me, hate me
You can never break me
Will me, thrill me
You can never kill me
Jew me, sue me
Everybody do me
Kick me, kike me
Don’t you black or white me

All I wanna say is that
They don’t really care about us
All I wanna say is that
They don’t really care about us

Tell me what has become of my life
I have a wife and two children who love me
I am the victim of police brutality, now
I’m tired of bein’ the victim of hate
You’re rapin’ me of my pride
Oh, for God’s sake
I look to heaven to fulfill its prophecy…
Set me free

Skin head, dead head
Everybody’s gone bad
trepidation, speculation
Everybody’s allegation
In the suite, on the news
Everybody’s dog food
black man, black male
Throw your brother in jail

All I wanna say is that
They don’t really care about us
All I wanna say is that
They don’t really care about us

Tell me what has become of my rights
Am I invisible because you ignore me?
Your proclamation promised me free liberty, now
I’m tired of bein’ the victim of shame
They’re throwing me in a class with a bad name
I can’t believe this is the land from which I came
You know I do really hate to say it
The government don’t wanna see
But if Roosevelt was livin’
He wouldn’t let this be, no, no

Skin head, dead head
Everybody gone bad
Situation, speculation
Everybody’s litigation
Beat me, bash me
You can never trash me
Hit me, kick me
You can never get me

All I wanna say is that
They don’t really care about us
All I wanna say is that
They don’t really care about us

Some things in life they just don’t wanna see
But if Martin Luther was livin’
He wouldn’t let this be

Skin head, dead head
Everybody’s gone bad
Situation, segregation
Everybody’s allegation
In the suite, on the news
Everybody’s dog food
Kick me, strike me
Don’t you wrong or right me

All I wanna say is that
They don’t really care about us
All I wanna say is that
They don’t really care about us

Alexander Rybak - 500 MILES

Gonna - разговорная форма be going to (сокращение в беглой неформальной речи). I’m gonna be = I’m going to be…

В этой песне giong to (gonna) употребляется не в значении “собираюсь, планирую что-то сделать”, а в значении предсказания: “я точно однажды… (проснусь, напьюсь, буду одинок - см. по тексту).  Об этом значении необходимо знать, но в учебниках о нем принято говорить лишь на продвинутых уровнях.

Yeah = Yes (неформ.)

Get drunk - напиться

Grow old - состариться

Haver - болтать, говорить глупости, нести чушь

Pass on - передать

Lonely - одинокий (прилагательное!)

Lyrics:

When I wake up yeah I know I’m gonna be
I’m gonna be the man who wakes up next to you
When I go out yeah I know I’m gonna be
I’m gonna be the man who goes along with you

If I get drunk yes I know I’m gonna be
I’m gonna be the man who gets drunk next to you
And if I haver yeah I know I’m gonna be
I’m gonna be the man who’s havering to you

But I’m gonna walk 500 miles
And I’m gonna walk 500 more
Just to be the man who walks 1000 miles
To fall down at your door

When I’m working yes I know I’m gonna be
I’m gonna be the man who’s working hard for you
And when the money comes in for the work I’ll do
I’ll pass almost every penny on to you

When I come home yeah I know I’m gonna be
I’m gonna be the man who comes back home to you
And if I grow old well I know I’m gonna be
I’m gonna be the man who’s growing old with you

But I’m gonna walk 500 miles
And I’m gonna walk 500 more
Just to be the man who walks 1000 miles
To fall down at your door

When I’m lonely yes I know I’m gonna be
I’m gonna be the man who’s lonely without you
When I’m dreaming yes I know I’m gonna dream
Dream about the time when I’m with you.

But I’m gonna walk 500 miles
And I’m gonna walk 500 more
Just to be the man who walks 1000 miles
To fall down at your door
