Forty Eight Twenty Three Twenty Second StreetNow, as for my aunt Who told on meShe was always wearing her turbansSailing back to Greece on the Normandy Having dinner at the captain's table Sitting on the deck with 5 men surrounding her With uncle Sam in the back row Back at home, riding up the Taygetus on a donkey named David With her soft leather boots dangling off to the side So full of pride So full of pride.Profitis Elias, so high you can see us 4823 22nd St., standing there with cashmere overcoats And those turbans with their Arabian silver And ostrich and papagou feather hats And not far down from our koumbaros BetinisWe've got a secret between us BetinisIn the back of the Hawthorne smoke shop In the basement of the hat factory The fedoras got glued togetherBut in that back basement... In that back basement, a lot of things got sewn up!A full compliment of grinchy Italians Counting up on their stubby fingers, and smoking, I'm told The least sophisticated cigars The local lottery and so forth Like anybody was going to get a nit out of that nut Though what a lucky loser is our five thousand dollars a day friend and koumbaros Betinis We've got a secret between us, BetinisIn the back of the Hawthorne smoke shop, Haberdashery was the least of it In the basement of the hat factory The fedoras got glued togetherBut in that back basement... In that back basement, a lot of things got sewn upWe've got a secret between us, Betinis. Five thousand dollars a day Five thousand dollars a day Five thousand dollars a day Five thousand dollars a dayIn the basement of the hat factory The fedoras got glued togetherBut in that back basement In that back basement, a lot of things got sewn up! We've got a secret between us, BetinisNot that nobody knows, like nobody knows about the white doves that flew out the cake at the brother's wedding In your hat factory, Betinis, they count up all the buffalo nickels And silver certificates wrung from Lake Superior spirits And prize fight foolery, and sluts speaking easy in the closets on 12th St. And in exchange you put in your pants $5,000 a day to stick under your bed for starters But later in the laundry, so you can feel free to chase your wife around the table When you feel she looked at the apricot and boysenberry boy twice
Это интересно:В основе группы The Fiery Furnaces стоит дуэт американцев – брата и сестры Мэтта и Элеонор Фридбергер (Matt & Eleanor Friedberger). Талантливые ребята, неразлучные с детства и прекрасно владеющие несколькими музыкальными инструментами (оба поют и грают на гитарах, а Мэтт освоил ещё синтезатор и орган), пять лет назад они решили сделать группу и первое время играли в мелких нью-йоркских клубах.... продолжение
