Перевод песни

Песня: The Mountie Song
When I was a kid I wanted to grow up
And be a cop in a province town or county
I thought it would be great if someday
I could only ever be a Mountie
I wanted to beat up crooks and make arrests
Because that's part of the profession
But now I sit on my horse and tell American tourists
The Parliament's in session

I really don't look good in red and my stupid hat
Flies off my head in every parade
I'm young and strong and have no fear but now
I'm spending my career in motorcades

I wanna enforce the law
I wanna wear normal clothes
I don't wanna have to smile for a diplomats' home videos
I'm good at working real hard
I should have joined the coast guard
Oh no, the RCMP is not the life for me

I used to think that a mountie had to be honest
Loyal, humble, strong and thrifty
But even though we don't break ranks, we get no thanks
They took us off the fifty (dollar bill)
On Sussex Drive in hallowed halls we act like guards
In shopping malls, it's such a pain
Like someone's plotting the assassination
Of the Minister of Sports and Recreation, oh that's insane

Sometimes I just want to puke
On Sergeant Preston of the Yukon
Dudley Do-Right's such a jerk (Damn you, Snidely)
And though he tries with all his heart
My horse couldn't catch a golfing cart
Some days I hate to go to work

I wanna enforce the law
I wanna wear normal clothes
I don't wanna have to smile for a diplomats' home videos
I'm good at working real hard
I should have joined the coast guard
Oh no, the RCMP is not the life for me

(Hey, hey, mountie... where's your man? Haven't you got him yet?)
(Can you take my picture?)
(Is your horse french?)
(What's you favourite episode of the forest rangers?)
(And why don't you ride a cow?)
(What state are we in?)
(Can you validate my parking?)
(How come there's two Rough Riders?)

I wanna enforce the law
I wanna wear normal clothes
I don't wanna have to smile for a diplomats' home videos
I'm good at working real hard
I should have joined the coast guard
Oh no, the RCMP is not the life for me

Oh, no, it's not the life for me
Oh, no, it's not the life for me, me, me
Not me in the RCMP, RCMP

Перевод песни:
Песня о конных полицейских

В детстве я хотел вырасти
И стать полицейским в провинциальном городке или графстве.
Мне казалось, что будет здорово, если однажды
Я смогу навсегда стать конным полицейским.
Я хотел избивать мошенников и совершать аресты,
Поскольку это часть профессии.
Но теперь я сижу верхом на лошади и говорю американским туристам,
Что идёт работа парламента...... [открыть перевод]
