Текст песни Сергей Матвеенко - Дурак и дурнушка

Fools and ugly

Nikolai Shipilov

In our house, where children, cats and old ladies
In the yard burning through until dark habitation,
We lived two in system area - ugly and stupid,
And loved she - no, he - her.

He wiped the sweat darkened her handkerchief,
And she laughed with a broom in his hand.
They regretted the old woman. Sorry - and the point
At that moment, forgetting his fool.

I wore it secretly their children's books.
I shook his fist at those who hurt them.
I would like them boys horn piece down,
When old photographer could hit the yard.

I wandered through the world. Often I was without light.
I loved the people wove traps.
Who gave birth to me? I believe that the wind
The farthest edges of the prettiest land.

And I fell. It burned like blue chips
From huge blanks with the name of "the people" ...
And shall have two - a fool and ugly,
Wiping sweat handkerchiefs at each other ...
