Portable Television(originale) |
Portable television, shrouded in snow |
In a raggedy van on the side of the road |
The night it had frozen through my little bones |
So, you took me in your arms, you squeezed out the cold |
And oh, oh |
Oh, oh, oh |
Oh, oh, oh |
Oh, oh, oh |
Upstate New York, autumn, brightly colored leaves |
Oh, the hills were on fire, they burn for you and me |
And where we were going, it was built like a lie |
But as sacred as the Bible, so we didn’t question why |
And oh, oh |
Oh, oh, oh |
Oh, oh, oh |
Oh, oh, oh |
I saw it in the soil just recently |
Where the rows of teeth, they grow in fields of infinite greed |
And here laid the father, and here stood the son |
Where the road meets the horizon for everyone |
For everyone |
Portable television, take us away |
From this burden of reflection we’ve carried today |
Oh, the generator’s running but there’s nothing on the air |
And the static is a comfort, so we huddle around and stare |
And oh, oh |
Oh, oh, oh |
Oh, oh, oh |
Oh, oh, oh |
Oh, oh, oh |
Oh, oh, oh |
Oh, oh, oh |
Oh, oh, oh, oh |
(traduzione) |
Televisione portatile, avvolta nella neve |
In un furgone malconcio sul ciglio della strada |
La notte in cui si era congelato tra le mie piccole ossa |
Quindi, mi hai preso tra le braccia, hai spremuto il freddo |
E oh, oh |
Oh oh oh |
Oh oh oh |
Oh oh oh |
Upstate New York, autunno, foglie dai colori vivaci |
Oh, le colline erano in fiamme, bruciano per te e per me |
E dove stavamo andando, era costruito come una bugia |
Ma per quanto sacra come la Bibbia, quindi non ci siamo chiesti perché |
E oh, oh |
Oh oh oh |
Oh oh oh |
Oh oh oh |
L'ho visto nel terreno solo di recente |
Dove le file di denti crescono in campi di infinita avidità |
E qui giaceva il padre, e qui stava il figlio |
Dove la strada incontra l'orizzonte per tutti |
Per tutti |
Televisione portatile, portaci via |
Da questo peso di riflessione che abbiamo portato oggi |
Oh, il generatore è in funzione ma non c'è niente in onda |
E l'elettricità statica è un conforto, quindi ci rannicchiamo e fissiamo |
E oh, oh |
Oh oh oh |
Oh oh oh |
Oh oh oh |
Oh oh oh |
Oh oh oh |
Oh oh oh |
Oh oh oh oh |
