Après Moi Songtext
von Regina Spektor

I (oh) must go on standing
You can′t break that which isn't yours
I (oh) must go on standing
I′m not my own, it's not my choice

La-da-da, da-da-da

Be afraid of the lame
They'll inherit your legs
Be afraid of the old
They′ll inherit your souls
Be afraid of the cold
They′ll inherit your blood
Après moi, le deluge
After me comes the flood

I (oh) must go on standing
You can't break that which isn′t isn't yours, yours
I (oh) must go on standing
I′m not my own, it's not my choice


La-da-da-da-da-da
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
La-la-la
La-da-da

Be afraid of the lame
They′ll inherit your legs
Be afraid of the old
They'll inherit your souls
Be afraid of the cold
They'll inherit your blood
Après moi, le deluge
After me comes the flood

Be afraid of the lame
They′ll inherit your legs
Be afraid of the old
They′ll inherit your souls
Be afraid of the cold
They'll inherit your blood
Après moi, le deluge
After me, the flood


Февраль, достать чернил и плакать
Писать о феврале навзрыд
Пока грохочущая слякоть
Весною чёрною горит

Февраль, достать чернил и плакать
Писать о феврале навзрыд
Пока грохочущая слякоть
Весною чёрною горит

Be afraid of the lame
They′ll inherit your legs
Be afraid of the old
They'll inherit your souls
Be afraid of the cold
They′ll inherit your blood
Après moi, le deluge
After me comes the flood

I (oh) must go on standing
You can't break that which isn′t yours
I (oh) must go on standing
I'm not my own, it's not my choice

I (oh), must (go on) stan- (stan-) -ding (-dong)
You (can′t) can′t break that (that) which isn't (isn′t) yours (yours)

La-da-da-da-da
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-da
La-ah-oh-la-ah-oh
