Little Shop of Horrors - Skid Row (Downtown) [German] Лирицс транслатион то енглисх
Translation
Skid Row (Downtown) [English]
(CRYSTAL)
You have to get up at 7:00
And drive to work
Going away from the slums
To the nicer part of the big city...
(RONNETTE & CHIFFON) – spoken
Sing it, child!
(CRYSTAL)
... 'til the afternoon
(WINO)
Off we go
(GIRLS)
Downtown, where it reeks of poverty
We go downtown, sinking in the filth
We go downtown, where everyone is sketchy
It's like that on Skid Row (on Skid Row)
(WINO)
Off we go
(GIRLS)
Downtown
(CRYSTAL)
Where no cabs stop
(ALL)
Downtown
(MUSHNIK)
Where the plaster is chipping
(ALL)
Downtown, the rest of the world's toilet
On Skid Row
(GIRLS)
Up in the better part of the city, you are
An errand boy, a cleaning lady, or a line cook
You get a quick lunch from McDonald's
And get yelled at by your boss for no reason, and
Up in the better part of the city, you shine
The leather shoes of the people on the street
You spend all day feeling bad about yourself
But 5:00 is the worst time
(WINO)
Off we go
(AUDREY)
Downtown, where you take, not choose
(ALL)
Downtown
(AUDREY)
Where they torture cats
(ALL)
Downtown
(AUDREY)
Where there's no compassion, you're raw
On Skid Row
(ALL)
On Skid Row
(AUDREY)
On Skid Row
(ALL)
On Skid Row
(AUDREY)
On Skid Row
(ALL)
On Skid Row
On Skid Row
(SEYMOUR)
Poor!
Since I've been alive, I've always been poor!
I beg God for mercy
And he tells me, 'Don't make a fuss!
Scrub the floor!'
Oh!
I was an orphan
And my home was Skid Row
He took me in, gave me food,
A bed, a job, a piece of bread
Told me that I was
An idiot, and he's right
I live...
(OTHERS)
Downtown...
(SEYMOUR)
There's no chance for me. I live
(OTHERS)
Downtown...
(SEYMOUR)
Where God fails you. I live
(OTHERS)
Downtown...
(SEYMOUR)
Will a guy like me ever be happy?
(OTHERS)
On Skid Row
(SEYMOUR)
And I hope that someone will get me out of here
'Cause I feel more and more like I can't take it anymore
Every day for me is difficult, I need to get out
I have to get out of this filth, or else I'll die
(SEYMOUR)
*Give me a sign, and I'll get out of here
'Cause it feels like I'm sinking, I can't take it anymore
And before I drown, I have to get out of here
My God, don't leave me here, or else I'll die
(OTHERS) – under Seymour's verse (*above)
Downtown, here the children seem old
Downtown, there's nowhere to stop
Downtown, where violence always wins by K.O.
When you live
(SEYMOUR & AUDREY)
**Man, it would be great to get out of here
Finally major, I can't stand this minor anymore
I'm fed up, I just want to leave already
I'd do anything to get out of Skid...
(OTHERS) – under Seymour and Audrey (**above)
Downtown, where you have no courage
Downtown, plagued by fear
Downtown, whoever's here doesn't ask why
If I walked through the door right now, I'd be out of Skid... (Downtown!)
Every day, I tell myself that I'm going to leave Skid... (Downtown!)
I have to leave here, get away from Skid... (Downtown! Skid...)
(ALL)
Row!
