Текст песни The Clash - Rock The Casbah

Now the king told the boogie men
You have to let that raga drop
The oil down the desert way
Has been shaken to the top
The sheik, he drove his Cadillac
He went a-cruising down the ville
The muezzin was a-standing
On the radiator grille

The sharif don't like it
Rocking the Casbah, rock the Casbah
The sharif don't like it
Rocking the Casbah, rock the Casbah

By order of the prophet
We ban that boogie sound
Degenerate the faithful
With that crazy Casbah sound
But the Bedouin they brought out the electric camel drum
The local guitar picker got his guitar picking thumb
As soon as the sharif had cleared the square
They began to wail

The sharif don't like it
Rocking the Casbah, rock the Casbah
The sharif don't like it
Rocking the Casbah, rock the Casbah

Now over at the temple
Oh they really pack them in
The in crowd say it's cool
To dig this chanting thing
But as the wind changed direction
And the temple band took five
The crowd caught a whiff
Of that crazy Casbah jive

The sharif don't like it
Rocking the Casbah, rock the Casbah
The sharif don't like it
Rocking the Casbah, rock the Casbah

The king called out his jet fighters
He said you'd better earn your pay
Drop your bombs between the minarets
Down the Casbah way
As soon as the sharif was chauffeured out of there
The jet pilots tuned to the cockpit radio blare
As soon as the sharif was out of their hair
The jet pilots wailed

The sharif don't like it
Rocking the Casbah, rock the Casbah
The sharif don't like it (he thinks it's not kosher)
Rocking the Casbah, rock the Casbah
The sharif don't like it (fundamentally he can't take it)
Rocking the Casbah, rock the Casbah
The sharif don't like it (you know he really hates it)
Rocking the Casbah, rock the Casbah

Сегодня король сказал музыкантам, играющим буги:
Придется вам прекратить играть свою рагу.
Нефть вдоль дороги в пустыне
Встряхнуло в самую высь.
Шейх, который водил кадиллак,
Поехал искать приключений в долине,
А муэдзин стоял
На решетке радиатора.

Шариф не любит,
Когда Касбу раскачивают, так раскачай Касбу.
Шариф не любит,
Когда Касбу раскачивают, так раскачай Касбу.

По приказу пророка
Мы запрещаем играть буги,
Из-за того, что эта безумная музыка из Касбы
Плохо влияет на правоверных.
Бедуины притащили электрический барабан из верблюда,
Местный гитарист взял в руки медиатор,
И как только шариф очистил площадь,
Они начали вопить.

Шариф не любит,
Когда Касбу раскачивают, так раскачай Касбу.
Шариф не любит,
Когда Касбу раскачивают, так раскачай Касбу.

И вот прямо у храма
Они собрали много народа.
Люди в толпе сказали: - Как круто
Вставляет от этого пения.
Но когда ветер поменял направление,
И группа у храма сделала перерыв,
Толпа почувствовала дуновение
Того безумного джайва из Касбы.

Шариф не любит,
Когда Касбу раскачивают, так раскачай Касбу.
Шариф не любит,
Когда Касбу раскачивают, так раскачай Касбу.

Король созвал своих пилотов истребителей
И сказал: - Пора вам поработать,
Бросьте бомб у минаретов
По всей Касбе.
Как только шарифа увезли на машине,
Пилоты истребителей включили радио в кабинах,
Как только шариф перестал их доставать,
Пилоты истребителей завопили.

Шариф не любит,
Когда Касбу раскачивают, так раскачай Касбу.
Шариф не любит (он думает, что это не кошерно),
Когда Касбу раскачивают, так раскачай Касбу.
Шариф не любит (он вообще терпеть этого не может),
Когда Касбу раскачивают, так раскачай Касбу.
Шариф не любит (знаешь, он это просто ненавидит),
Когда Касбу раскачивают, так раскачай Касбу.

Today, the king said the musicians playing boogie :
You'll have to stop playing his stew.
Oil along the road in the desert
Shaken to the very heavens.
Sheikh, who drove a Cadillac ,
Went in search of adventure in the valley ,
And the muezzin was
On the grille.

Sharif do not like ,
When rocking the casbah , so rocked the casbah .
Sharif do not like ,
When rocking the casbah , so rocked the casbah .

By order of the prophet
We prohibit play boogie
Because this crazy music from the Casbah
Bad influence on the faithful .
Bedouins dragged electric drum camel
Local guitarist picked up a mediator
And as soon as Sharif cleared area ,
They started yelling .

Sharif do not like ,
When rocking the casbah , so rocked the casbah .
Sharif do not like ,
When rocking the casbah , so rocked the casbah .

And right at the temple
They collected a lot of people.
People in the crowd said : - How cool
Inserts of singing.
But when the wind changed direction ,
And the band took a break at the temple ,
The crowd felt the blow
That crazy Casbah jive from .

Sharif do not like ,
When rocking the casbah , so rocked the casbah .
Sharif do not like ,
When rocking the casbah , so rocked the casbah .

King called his fighter pilots
And he said : - It's time you work ,
Throw bombs at the mosque
Across the Kasbah.
As soon as Sharif was taken by car
Fighter pilots turned on the radio in the cabins ,
Once they get stopped Sharif ,
Fighters screamed .

Sharif do not like ,
When rocking the casbah , so rocked the casbah .
Sharif do not like ( he thinks it's not kosher )
When rocking the casbah , so rocked the casbah .
Sharif do not like ( it generally can not stand it )
When rocking the casbah , so rocked the casbah .
Sharif do not like ( you know, he hates it )
When rocking the casbah , so rocked the casbah .
