Ознакомьтесь с текстом песни Van Der Graaf Generator - Every Bloody Emperor

Всем нам даёт силы одно и то же:
We are all given strength by the same thing:
вера в человеческую натуру,
faith in human nature,
справедливость и равенство...
justice and equality...
Всё, что у нас есть - вера, что ведёт нас.
All we have is faith, which guides us.
Незначительно то изменение,
It is a small change
когда наше голосование
when our vote
становится простой формальностью,
becomes a mere formality,
и наши повелители и хозяева низвергают нас
and our lords and masters reduce us
до ролей рабов и невольников
to the roles of slaves and thralls
во имя новой империи.
in the name of a new empire.


Да, и каждый кровавый император требует,
Yes, and every bloody emperor demands
чтобы свобода была его личным делом,
that freedom be his own affair,
когда он вбивает свое всеобщее прикосновение
when he hammers in his universal touch
как экстренные параграфы.
like emergency paragraphs.


К народам народы обращаются на языке канавы;
The peoples are addressed in the language of the gutter;
обменянные инсульты в прайм-тайм
the exchanged strokes of prime time
на импульсы империи
for the impulses of empire
простираются через экраны.
extend across the screens.
Истина повержена на колени;
Truth is brought to its knees;
ложь внедрена беспредельно,
falsehood is implanted without limit,
и пока эти повторения не станут
and until these repetitions become
официальной доктриной,
official doctrine,
мы - предатели неверия.
we are traitors to unbelief.
С каким же бессилием мы горюем
With what impotence we mourn
о демократическом процессе,
for the democratic process,
пока наши славные лидеры
while our glorious leaders
тайно договариваются накормить нас
secretly conspire to feed us
последними остатками диктаторского презрения
with the last vestiges of dictatorial contempt
во имя новой империи.
in the name of a new empire.


Да, и каждый кровавый император
Yes, and every bloody emperor
тянет свои руки к юбке истории,
stretches his hands to the skirts of history
когда позирует для потомства,
as he poses for posterity,
стоя на свежевыкопанной грязи.
standing on freshly dug dirt.
Да, и каждый кровавый император
Yes, and every bloody emperor
с мерзкой ухмылкой на губах
with a nasty grin on his lips
говорит о своем способе выхода из положения
talks about his way out of the situation
почти что попало, но ложь - внутри,
almost anything, but the lie is inside,
потому что каждый кровавый император
because every bloody emperor
думает, что его право управлять - свято,
thinks his right to rule is sacred,
так что он будет изворачиваться и изворачиваться,
so he will twist and twist,
и изворачиваться до своего конца.
and twist until his end.


Незначительно то изменение,
Little difference
когда один за одним наши голоса затихают,
when one by one our voices are silenced,
и двойные стандарты пропаганды
and the double standards of propaganda
сковывают весь наш праведный гнев.
shackle all our righteous anger.


Всем нам даёт силы одно и то же:
We are all strengthened by the same thing:
вера в человеческую натуру.
faith in human nature.
Но наша вера исчезает - с приближением к финишу,
But our faith disappears - as we approach the finish line,
мы - всего лишь рабы и невольники
we are just slaves and captives
в тот момент, когда империя рушится.
at the moment when the empire collapses.


Every Bloody Emperor
Every Bloody Emperor


By this we are all sustained: a belief in human nature
By this we are all sustained: a belief in human nature
and in justice and parity...all we have is the faith to carry on.
and in justice and parity...all we have is the faith to carry on.


Imperceptible the change as our votes become mere gestures
Imperceptible the change as our votes become mere gestures
and our lords and masters determine to cast us
and our lords and masters determine to cast us
in the roles of serfs and slaves
in the roles of serfs and slaves
in the new empire's name.
in the new empire's name.


Yes and every bloody emperor claims that freedom is his cause
Yes and every bloody emperor claims that freedom is his cause
as he buffs up on his common touch as a get-out clause.
as he buffs up on his common touch as a get-out clause.


Unto nations nations speak in the language of the gutter;
Unto nations nations speak in the language of the gutter;
trading primetime insults the imperial impulse
trading primetime insults the imperial impulse
extends across the screen.
extends across the screen.
Truth's been beaten to its knees; the lies embed ad infinitum
Truth's been beaten to its knees; the lies embed ad infinitum
till their repetition becomes a dictum
till their repetition becomes a dictum
we're traitors to disbelieve.
we're traitors to disbelieve.
With what impotence we grieve for the democratic process
With what impotence we grieve for the democratic process
as our glorious leaders conspire to feed us
as our glorious leaders conspire to feed us
the last dregs of imperious disdain
the last dregs of imperious disdain
in the new empire's name.
in the new empire's name.


Yes and every bloody emperor's got his hands up history's skirt
Yes and every bloody emperor's got his hands up history's skirt
as he poses for posterity over the fresh-dug dirt.
as he poses for posterity over the fresh-dug dirt.
Yes and every bloody emperor with his sickly rictus grin
Yes and every bloody emperor with his sickly rictus grin
talks his way out of nearly anything but the lie within
talks his way out of nearly anything but the lie within
because every bloody emperor thinks his right to rule divine
because every bloody emperor thinks his right to rule divine
so he'll go spinning and spinning and spinning into his own decline.
so he'll go spinning and spinning and spinning into his own decline.


Imperceptible the change as one by one our voices falter
Imperceptible the change as one by one our voices falter
and the double standards of propaganda
and the double standards of propaganda
still all our righteous rage.
still all our righteous rage.


By this we are all sustained: our belief in human nature.
By this we are all sustained: our belief in human nature.
But our faith diminishes - close to the finish,
But our faith diminishes - close to the finish,
we're only serfs and slaves
we're only serfs and slaves
as the empire decays.
as the empire decays.
