Текст Brian Eno — The Great Pretender

Monica sighed, rolled onto her side
She was so impressed that she just surrendered

She was moved by his wheels, she was just up from Wales
He was fuelled by her coals and he was coming to catch her

Lose the sense of time, nail down the blinds
And in the succulent dark, there’s a sense of ending

Joking aside, the mechanical bride
Has fallen prey to the Great Pretender

Let me just point out discreetly
Though you never learn

All those tawdry late-night Weepies
I could make you weep more cheaply

As the empty moon enamels
Monica with spoons and candles

Bangs around without the light on
Furniture to get it right on

Settled in a homely fishpool
Hung with little eels

Often thinks that travel widens
Stay at home; the Trout obliges

Monica sighed, rolled onto her side
She was so impressed that she just surrendered
