1.Дэвид Джей

Они обвинила его в разжигании споров
Среди мира грез.
Долог спуск в бездну от райских врат.
В отсутствие присяжных
Суд продолжается.
Чистейшая ложь
Лишь утверджает его печальную участь.
Дело не закрывается.

2. Питер Мерфи

Возьмите рыбу
И картофелину.
Держите рыбу
В одной руке
И картофелину
В другой.

Положите картофелину
Рыбе в рот,
Пусть рыба проглотит ее,
После чего взбейте как следует,
Взбейте как следует.

Взбейте как следует,
Взбейте как следует.

Таким образом вы получите рыбную лепешку,
Таким образом делаются рыбные лепешки:
Взбейте как следует,
Запихните поглубже.

Рыбные лепешки!
Рыбные лепешки!
Рыбные лепешки!
Рыбные лепешки!

Запихните прямо в рыбу,
Запихните прямо в рыбу,
Швырните ее в стену,
Затем потопчитесь по ней.

Рыбные лепешки!
Рыбные лепешки!
Рыбные лепешки!
Рыбные лепешки!

Швырните рыбу в стену,
Разбейте ее об стену,
Швырните рыбу в стену,
Разбейте ее об стену.

Рыбные лепешки!
Рыбные лепешки!

3. Кевин Хаскинс

А у вас барабанные палочки всегда лежат на пианино?
Не бойтесь,
Избегайте риска
И по возможности не покидайте дом.

Все трудно, сопряжено с неприятностями,
Но вам же дали совет не карабкаться вверх,
Иначе для вас вероятна опасность представления.

И на работе, и дома
Хватает стрессов и напряжения,
Но мы всегда верим,
Что завтра будет иначе!

4. Даниэль Эш

Пожалуй, довольно:
Другие уже выложились по полной, чтобы создать этот спектакль,
Похожий на то, что люди смотрят, потягивая виски.
Я же не пью,
Почти не ем в эти дни.

Что ж, это даже хорошо.

She blamed him for stoking up controversy
In a dreamworld
It’s a long way down from Heaven’s gate
In the absence of a jury
The case continues
White lies
Seal his bitter fate
The case continues

2. Peter Murphy
Take a fish
And a potato
Hold the fish
And the potato
In your hand
In your hand

Put the potato
In the fish
Make it digest it
Smash it up
Smash it up

Smash it up
Smash it up

This is how you make fishcakes
This is how one makes fishcakes
Smash it up
Poke it up

Fishcakes
Fishcakes
Fishcakes
Fishcakes

Put it down the fish
Put it down the fish
Throw it against the wall
Stamp on the fish

Fishcakes
Fishcakes
Fishcakes
Fishcakes

Throw it on the wall
Smash it on the wall
Throw it on the wall
Smash it on the wall

Fishcakes
Fishcakes

Do you always keep drumsticks on the piano?
Take it easy
Avoid risks
And if possible, stay at home

Not only is trouble very difficult
But you are advised of staying off ladders
For there may be danger of performance

There is a lot of stress and strain
Both at work, and at home
But we know
Tomorrow is another day

4. Daniel Ash
Naturally enough
The others have been doing their utmost to match this performance
This is something people get when they continually drink whiskey
I can’t drink
I hardly eat these days

Ok, that’s fine

Комментарий: как отмечают западные комментаторы, это первый опыт Bauhaus в авангардной композиции Exquisite corpse, родившейся среди французских художников первой половины XX в.: некое существо («кадавр», «труп») рисуется по частям, совершенно явно разделенное, несколькими художниками: один изображает ноги, другой туловище, третий голову… Примеры получившихся изображений продемонстрирует любой Интернет-поисковик. Также и тут песня компилируется из четырех вроде бы не очень связанных кусков, каждый за авторством одного из участников группы. В результате и получаем некий изысканный, но вс

They accused him of stirring up controversy
Among the world of dreams.
Long descent into the abyss from the gates of heaven.
In the absence of a jury
The trial continues.
The purest lie
Only confirms his sad fate.
The case is not closed.

2. Peter Murphy

Take fish
And a potato.
Keep the fish
In one hand
And a potato
In another.

Put potato
Fish in the mouth
Let the fish swallow it
Then whisk well,
Whisk well.

Whisk well
Whisk well.

This way you get a fish cake,
This is how fish cakes are made:
Whisk well
Push it deeper.

Fish cakes!
Fish cakes!
Fish cakes!
Fish cakes!

Shove it right into the fish
Shove it right into the fish
Throw her against the wall
Then walk over it.

Fish cakes!
Fish cakes!
Fish cakes!
Fish cakes!

Throw the fish against the wall
Smash it against the wall
Throw the fish against the wall
Smash it against the wall.

Fish cakes!
Fish cakes!

Do you always have drumsticks on the piano?
Do not be afraid,
Avoid risk
And if possible, don't leave the house.

Everything is difficult, fraught with trouble
But they gave you advice not to climb up,
Otherwise, you are likely to be in danger of presentation.

Both at work and at home
Enough stress and tension
But we always believe
That tomorrow will be different!

4. Daniel Ash

Perhaps enough:
Others have already gone all out to create this show,
Similar to what people watch while sipping whiskey.
I don't drink
I hardly eat these days.

Well, that's even good.

Commentary: as Western commentators note, this is the first experience of Bauhaus in the avant-garde composition Exquisite corpse, which was born among French artists of the first half of the 20th century: a creature ("cadaver", "corpse") is drawn in parts, clearly divided, by several artists: one depicts legs, another torso, a third head ... Examples of the resulting images will be demonstrated by any Internet search engine. Also here, the song is compiled from four seemingly not very connected pieces, each one by one of the band members. As a result, we get a certain refined, but all
