Перевод песни The Jam - That's entertainment

A police car and a screaming siren –

A pnuematic drill and ripped up concrete –

A baby waiting and stray dog howling –

The screech of brakes and lamplights blinking –

that’s entertainment.

A smash of glass and the rumble of boots –

An electric train and a ripped up ‘phone booth –

Paint splattered walls and the cry of a tomcat –

Lights going out and a kick in the balls –

that’s entertainment.

Days of speed and slow time Mondays –

Pissing down with rain on a boring Wednesday –

Watching the news and not eating your tea –

A freezing cold flat and damp on the walls –

that’s entertainment.

Waking up at 6 a.m. on a cool warm morning –

Opening the windows and breathing in petrol –

An amateur band rehearsing in a nearby yard –

Watching the tele and thinking about your holidays –

that’s entertainment.

Waking up from bad dreams and smoking cigarettes –

Cuddling a warm girl and smelling stale perfume –

A hot summers’ day and sticky black tarmac –

Feeding ducks in the park and wishing you were faraway –

that’s entertainment.

Two lovers kissing amongst the scream of midnight –

Two lovers missing the tranquility of solitude –

Getting a cab and travelling on buses –

Reading the grafitti about slashed seat affairs –

that’s entertainment
