Текст Paul Kelly — Nothing On My Mind
[Verse 1]
Rack ’em up, Jim, it’s your break
Set ’em up Max, it’s my shout
You know, I really could go a round or three
You wouldn’t believe the crap I’ve had to deal with this week
And I’m shovelling most of it for free
«Grace under pressure», that’s what the old man said
Well, the old man said a lot of things in his time
Well, fighting a bull’s one thing, fighting bullshit’s another
You know, around here the bullshit just never seems to die
[Chorus]
I just want nothing on my mind (Nothing on my mind)
Nothing on my mind (Nothing on my mind)
Nothing on my mind (Nothing on my mind)
Nothing on my mind (Nothing on my mind)
[Verse 2]
Christ, hell! It’s warming up in here
Listen to that guitar player, will ya?
Do you think anyone could tell him to turn down?
Where’d Jim go? Sorry, I didn’t catch your name
It’s impossible to hear a word above that sound
I’m a little thirsty, I’m running out of money
Hey, I’m a legend, not a star
And I’ll talk to anyone, yes I will
Just as long as I can keep ripping the scab
Off those cold little vicious ones
As they keep coming right across the bar
[Chorus]
I just want nothing on my mind (Nothing on my mind)
Nothing on my mind (Nothing on my mind)
Nothing on my mind (Nothing on my mind)
Nothing on my mind (Nothing on my mind)
[Verse 3]
There was a man on the radio today
Talking about the young people
Said we should listen to the young people
Said they’re a victim of conspiracy
The young people, Jesus! What’s that supposed to mean?
I never did one damn good thing ’til I was over thirty
I’m gonna get up in the morning, chug-a-lug a coffee
Gonna get on my bike and ride away
Find me a beach with a nice little break
And I’m gonna catch wave after wave after wave
[Chorus]
Until there’s nothing on my mind (Nothing on my mind)
Nothing on my mind (Nothing on my mind)
Nothing on my mind (Nothing on my mind)
Nothing on my mind (Nothing on my mind)
Just want nothing on my mind (Nothing on my mind)
Nothing on my mind (Nothing on my mind)
Nothing on my mind (Nothing on my mind)
Nothing on my mind (Nothing on my mind)
[Outro]
Yeah, oh-oh
The young people
Whoever brought me here’s gonna have to take me home
The young people, ha
What? What’s that? What’s that?
What’s that say? Huh?
