Billy Joel - Piano Man Billy Joel - Piano Man |
*** Autor textu: Billy Joel *** Autor hudby: Billy Joel | It's nine o'clock on a Saturday
The regular crowd shuffles in
There's an old man sitting next to me
Making love to his tonic and gin
= Je deväť hodín v sobotu
= Pravidelný dav sa premieľa
= Vedľa mňa sedí starý pán
= Pýta si svoj tonik s džinom
He says, "Son, can you play me a memory?
I'm not really sure how it goes
But it's sad and it's sweet
And I knew it complete
When I wore a younger man's clothes"
= Vraví: "Synku, zahraj mi "spomienkovú"?
= Už si ju veľmi nepamätám
= Ale je smutná a sladká
= A poznal som ju celú
= Keď som nosieval šaty malého chlapca"
Sing us a song, you're the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well, we're all in the mood for a melody
And you've got us feeling alright
= Spievaj nám pieseň, klavirista
= Spievaj nám pieseň navečer
= Všetci máme náladu na melódiu
= A ty nám dávaš príjemný pocit
Now John at the bar is a friend of mine
He gets me my drinks for free
And he's quick with a joke or to light up your smoke
But there's someplace that he'd rather be
= Hľa, John pri bare je môj kamarát
= Dáva mi pitie zdarma
= A hneď povie vtip alebo zapáli cigaretu
= No existuje miesto, kde by bol radšej
He says, "Bill, I believe this is killing me"
As a smile ran away from his face
"Well, I'm sure that I could be a movie star
If I could get out of this place"
= Vraví: "Bill, som presvedčený, že toto ma zabíja"
= A úsmev sa mu vynára z tváre
= "Vieš, som si istý, že by som mohol byť filmovou hviezdou
= Keby som sa dostal preč odtiaľto
Now Paul is a real estate novelist
Who never had time for a wife
And he's talking with David, who's still in the Navy
And probably will be for life
= Hľa, Paul je realistický románopisec
= Ktorý nikdy nemal čas na ženu
= A práve debatuje s Davidom, ktorý je stále námorníkom
= A asi ním aj zostane
And the waitress is practicing politics
As the businessmen slowly get stoned
Yes, they're sharing a drink they call loneliness
But it's better than drinking alone
= A čašníčka praktizuje politiku
= A podnikateľ sa pomaly opíja
= Pijú zo spoločného pohárika zvaného osamelosť
= Ale je to lepšie ako piť sám
Sing us a song, you're the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well,we're all in the mood for a melody
And you've got us feeling alright
It's a pretty good crowd for a Saturday
And the manager gives me a smile
'Cause he knows that it's me they've been coming to see
To forget about life for a while
= Celkom slušný dav na sobotu
= A vedúci sa na mňa usmieva
= Lebo vie, že som to ja, na koho sa prišli pozrieť
= A zabudnúť na život nachvíľku
And the piano sounds like a carnival
And the microphone smells like a beer
And they sit at the bar and put bread in my jar
And say "Man, what are you doing here?"
= A klavír znie ako karneval
= A mikrofón páchne ako pivo
= A oni vysedávajú pri bare a plnia mi pohár prachmi
= A vravia: "Človeče, čo tu ešte robíš?"
Sing us a song, you're the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well, we're all in the mood for a melody
And you've got us feeling alright |
