Перевод песни

Песня: I Pity the Country
I pity the country, I pity the state
And the mind of a man who thrives on hate
Small are the lives of cheats and of liars
Of bigoted news press, fascist town criers

Deception annoys me, deception destroys me
The Bill of Rights throws me, jails, they all know me
Frustrated are churchmen, the saving-of-soul men
The tinker, the tailor, the colonial governor

They rape and they beat me (I pity the country)
Seeking to draw me (I pity the state, and the mind of a man)
Away from the roundness (Who thrives on hate)
Of this life

Silly civil servants, they thrive off my body
Their trip is with power, back-bacon, and welfare
Police, they arrest me, materialists detest me
Pollution, it chokes me, movies, they joke me

Politicians exploit me (Politicians exploit me)
City life, it jades me (City life, it jades me)
Hudson's Bay fleeces me (Hudson's Bay fleeces me)
Hunting laws freak me (Hunting laws freak me)
Government is stumbling (Government is stumbling)
Revolution is rumbling (Revolution is rumbling)
To be ruled in impunity (To be ruled in impunity)
Is tradition continuity (Is tradition continuity)

I pity the country, I pity the state
And the mind of a man who thrives on hate
I pity this country

I pity the country, I pity the state
And the mind of a man who thrives on hate
Small are the lives of cheats and of liars
Of bigoted news press fascist town criers

I pity the country, I pity the state
And the mind of a man who thrives on hate
I pity the country, I pity the state

Перевод песни:
Жаль страну

Я жалею страну, жалею все государство,
И рассудок людей, цветущий ненавистью.
Ничтожны жизни мошенников, лжецов,
Продажных и зашоренных журналистов, глашатаев фашизма.

Обман раздражает, уничтожает меня.
Билль о правах лишает меня равновесия. Каждая тюрьма мне знакома.
Из себя выходят даже служители церкви, отвечающие за спасение наших душ...... [открыть перевод]
