Testi di Dancing As The Boat Goes Down - The Bats

Dancing As The Boat Goes Down (originale)

At first we knew the sight
Brimming with gleaming golden light
As soon as we got there
I knew it would end in a great big fight
There was dancing and singing, crying and ringing
Dancing as the boat goes down
Dancing as the boat goes down
By now they were lost for words
They were following us in great big herds
As soon as we made the bay
Swimming away from the circling birds
There was dancing and singing, crying and ringing
Dancing as the boat goes down
Dancing as the boat goes down
It was never said what they really did
But we all knew when they ran and hid
There was dancing and singing, crying and ringing
Dancing as the boat goes down
Dancing as the boat goes down
Dancing and singing, crying and ringing
They were moving below the waves
They would never know the sun again

(traduzione)

All'inizio conoscevamo la vista
Risplende di luce dorata scintillante
Non appena siamo arrivati
Sapevo che sarebbe finita in una grande battaglia
Si ballava e si cantava, si piangeva e si squillava
Ballando mentre la barca scende
Ballando mentre la barca scende
Ormai erano senza parole
Ci stavano seguendo in grandi grandi mandrie
Non appena abbiamo raggiunto la baia
Nuotando lontano dagli uccelli che volteggiano
Si ballava e si cantava, si piangeva e si squillava
Ballando mentre la barca scende
Ballando mentre la barca scende
Non è mai stato detto cosa facessero veramente
Ma sapevamo tutti quando correvano e si nascondevano
Si ballava e si cantava, si piangeva e si squillava
Ballando mentre la barca scende
Ballando mentre la barca scende
Ballando e cantando, piangendo e suonando
Si stavano muovendo sotto le onde
Non avrebbero mai più conosciuto il sole
