Текст песни В. Высоцкий - Профессионалам - заплата навалом

Professionals -
Salary bulk -
Do not care that they are on the ice spit teeth.
They are paid denzhischi -
Huge thousands -
And even for a loss and a draw.

Player cunning - let
Takes on the case,
A slap in the tooth foot and - in the tooth foot -
And he eventually
Cripple legs -
And instead of the putter comes with a crutch.

Professionals
Desperate small
Game - lottery - who are lucky.
Play with a partner -
Like a bull with a matador -
Though, it seems, taken the opposite.

As if dead,
Lies your partner -
And okay, to hell with it - let it lie.
Not blundered, bull,
God wants the puck,
God on the podium - he will not forgive!

Professionals
Judge crime
Neither boxing does not believe, nor angry scuffle -
And with them for twenty years
Who could compete -
As a schoolboy fight selective punks?

But recently
Their main trump card -
It is not a trump card, as well trifle -
And their weapons
Now, not worse
They are beaten, to the same - at speed.

Professionals
In his Montreal
Let them break each other noses -
But their representative
(You want - ask!)
Recently taped was two lanes.

First, flattened,
And then - the patch ...
And theirs pastor - well, as luck! -
He pre-fight
Knew little to them -
Prayed systems - did not help.

Professionals
Through various channels -
That's a lot, there is little - the bank account -
And our guys
The same wage
Already fivefold go ahead!

Let in the Majors
Weave
And let the name Canadian hockey -
For us the word -
Before meeting again!
And the players - to the best of days ...
