| We will rock you
(May)
Buddy, you're a boy, make a big noise
Playin' in the street, gonna be a big man some day
You got mud on your face, your big disgrace
Kickin' your can all over the place
We will, we will rock you
We will, we will rock you
Buddy, you're a young man, hard man

Очень разнообразный альбом (впрочем, как и все остальные у этой великолепной группы). Только здесь помимо разнообразия в стилистике и темпе, сразу бросается в глаза неравнозначность представленных композиций. С одной стороны здесь есть совершенно умопомрачительные вещи, известные каждому человеку еще, наверное, с пеленок, но с другой – масса, прямо скажем, рядового материала (по меркам группы, естественно). Такие хиты как “We Will Rock You” Мэя и “We Are The Champions” Меркьюри, бесспорно, принадлежат к числу лучших произведений рок-музыки, а песня “Spread Your Wings” Дикона чуть менее популярна и известна, но, тем не менее, тоже очень высокого уровня. (В 1992 году ее здорово записали BLIND GUARDIAN, так что любителям спид-рауэр металла эта композиция должна быть очень хорошо знакома.)
На примере этого альбома особенно ярко проявился тот факт, что все четыре члена группы способны писать просто потрясающую музыку. Пожалуй, что только Тейлор на данном альбоме не очень отличился (его две песни на фоне уже упомянутых выглядят довольно средне), однако в его активе масса первоклассных хитов на других альбомах.
В целом, альбом заметно сильнее предыдущего, но из-за некоторых весьма невыдающихся песен не дотягивает до лучших творений группы. Тем не менее, я просто уверен, что это как раз тот случай, когда оценку альбому можно ставить за одну песню. А в данном случае – еще и за три! |

You got blood on your face, your big disgrace
Wavin' your banner all over the place
We will, we will rock you
We will, we will rock you
Buddy, you're an old man, poor man
Pleadin' with your eyes, gonna make you some peace someday
You got mud on your face, your big disgrace
Somebody better put you back into your place
We will, we will rock you
We will, we will rock you
We will, we will rock you
We will, we will rock you
We are the champions
(Mercury)
I've paid my dues time after time
I've done my sentence but committed no crime
And bad mistakes I've made a few
I've had my share of sand kicked in my face but I've come through
And we mean to go on and on and on and on
We are the champions, my friend
And we'll keep on fighting 'till the end
We are the champions, we are the champions
No time for losers 'cause we are the champions of the world
I've taken my bows
And my curtain calls
You brought me fame and fortune
And everything that goes with it, I thank you all
But it's been no bed of roses
No pleasure cruise
I consider it a challenge before
The whole human race and I ain't gonna lose
And we mean to go on and on and on and on
We are the champions, my friend
And we'll keep on fighting 'till the end
We are the champions, we are the champions
No time for losers 'cause we are the champions of the world
We are the champions, my friend
And we'll keep on fighting 'till the end
We are the champions, we are the champions
No time for losers 'cause we are the champions
Sheer heart attack
(Taylor)
Well, you're just seventeen
And all you wanna do is disappear
You know what I mean
There's a lot of space between your ears
The way that you touch don't feel nothin'
Hey, hey, hey, hey! It was the DNA
Hey, hey, hey, hey! That made me this way
Do you know? Do you know?
Do you know just how I feel?
Do you know? Do you know?
Do you know just how I feel?
Sheer heart attack
Sheer heart attack
Real cardiac
I feel so inarticulate
Got a feeling, got a feeling
Got a feeling like I'm paralysed
It ain't no, it ain't no
It ain't no, it ain't no surprise
Turn on the TV, let it drip right down in your eyes
Hey, hey, hey, hey! It was the DNA
Hey, hey, hey, hey! That made me this way
Do you know? Do you know?
Do you know just how I feel?
Do you know? Do you know?
Do you know just how I feel?
Sheer heart attack
Sheer heart attack
Real cardiac
I feel so inarticulate
Just how I feel
Do you know? Do you know?
Do you know? Do you know just how I feel?
Do you know? Do you know?
Do you know just how I feel?
Do you know? Do you know?
Do you know just how I feel?
Do you know? Do you know?
Do you know just how I feel?
Do you know? Do you know?
Do you know? Do you know just how I feel?
Sheer heart attack
Sheer heart attack
Real cardiac
All dead, all dead
(May)
She came without a farthing
A babe without a name
So much ado about nothing
Is what she'd try to say
So much ado my lover
So many games we played
Through every fleeted summer
Through every precious day
All dead, all dead - all the dreams we had
And I wonder why I still live on
All dead, all dead - and alone I'm spared
My sweeter half instead all dead and gone
All dead
All dead, all dead - at the rainbow's end
And still I hear her own sweet song
All dead, all dead - take me back again
You know my little friend's all dead and gone
Her ways are always with me
I wander all the while
But please, you must forgive me
I am old but still a child
All dead, all dead - but I should not grieve
In time it comes to everyone
All dead, all dead - but in hope I breathe
Of course I don't believe you're dead and gone
All dead and gone
Spread your wings
(Deacon)
Sammy was low, just watching the show
Over and over again
Knew it was time he'd made up his mind
To leave his dead life behind
His boss said to him: "Boy, you'd better begin
To get those crazy notions right out of your head"
Sammy, who do you think that you are?
You should've been sweeping up the Emerald bar
Spread your wings and fly away
Fly away, far away
Spread your little wings and fly away
Fly away, far away
Pull yourself together 'cause you know you should do better
That's because you're a free man
He spends his evenings alone in his hotel room
Keeping his thoughts to himself, he'd be leaving soon
Wishing he was miles and miles away
Nothing in this world, nothing would make him stay
Since he was small had no luck at all
Nothing came easy to him
Now it was time he'd made up his mind
"This could be my last chance"
His boss said to him: "Now listen, boy! You're always dreaming
You've got no real ambition, you won't get very far"
Sammy, boy, don't you know who you are?
Why can't you be happy at the Emerald bar?
So honey, spread your wings and fly away
Fly away, far away
Spread your little wings and fly away
Fly away, far away
Pull yourself together 'cause you know you should do better
That's because you're a free man
Come on, honey!
Fly with me
Fight from the inside
(Taylor)
Hey you, boy!
Hey, you!
Hey you, boy! Think that you know what you're doing?
You think you're gonna set things to rights
You're just another picture on a teenage wall
You're just another sucker ready for a fall
You got a fight from the inside
Attack from the rear
Fight from the inside
You can't win with your hands tied
Fight from the inside
Fight from the inside
Right down the line
Hey you, boy!
Hey, you!
Hey you, boy! Think that you know what you're doing?
You think that out in the streets is all free
You're just another money spinner tool
You're just another fool
You got a fight from the inside
Attack from the rear
Fight from the inside
You can't win with your hands tied
Fight from the inside
Fight from the inside
Right down the line
Right down the line
Right down the line
Get down, make love
(Mercury)
Get down, make love
Get down, make love
Get down, make love
Get down, make love
You take my body, I give you heat
You say you're hungry, I give you meat
I suck your mind, you blow my head
Make love, make love inside your bed
Everybody get down, make love
Get down, make love
Get down, make love
Get down, make love
Everytime I get hot you wanna cool down
Everytime I get high you say you wanna come down
You say it's enough, in fact it's too much
Everytime I get a get down, get down, get down, make love
I can squeeze, you can shake me
I can feel when you break me
Come on, so heavy when you take me
You make love, you make love, you make love, you make love
You can make everybody get down, make love
Get down, make love
Everytime I get high you wanna come down
Everytime I get hot you say you wanna cool down
You say it's enough, in fact it's too much
Everytime I wanna get down, get down, get down
Get down, make love
Get down, make love
Get down, make love
Get down, make love
Everytime I get high you wanna come down
Everytime I get hot you say you wanna cool down
You say it's enough, in fact it's too much
Everytime I wanna get down, get down, get down, make love
Sleeping on the sidewalk
(May)
I was nothin' but a city boy
My trumpet was my only toy
I've been blowin' my horn since I knew I was born
But there ain't nobody wants to know
I've been sleeping on the sidewalk
Rollin' down the road
I may get hungry
But I sure don't wanna go home
So 'round the corner comes a limousine
And the biggest grin I've ever seen
"Sonny, won't you sign right along the dotted line?"
What you sayin'? Are you playin'? Sure you don't mean me?
Sleeping on the sidewalk
Rollin' down the road
I may get hungry
But I sure don't wanna go home
Now I'll tell you what happened
They took me to a room without a table
They said: "Blow your trumpet into here"
I played around as well as I was able
And soon we had the record of the year
I was a legend all through the land
I was blowin' to a million fans
Nothin' was a missin', all the people want to listen
You'd have thought I was a happy man
And I was sleepin' like a princess
Never touch the road
I don't get hungry
And I sure don't wanna go home
Have to have some fun
Now they tell me that I ain't so fashionable
And I owe the man a million bucks a year
So I told'em where to stick the fancy label
It's just me and the road from here
Back to playin' and layin'
I'm back on the game
Sleepin' on the sidewalk
Rollin' down the road
I sure get hungry
And I sure do wanna go home
Who needs you
(Deacon)
I make it half past six, you come at seven
Always trying to keep me hanging 'round
You little spoilt thing, girl, you kept me waiting
Never contemplating my point of view
This comes as no surprise
I'm a fool for I believed your lies
But now I've seen through your disguise
Who needs? Well, I don't need, who needs you?
Oh, I believed you
Went on my knees to you
How I trusted you
But you turned me down
But it's dog eat dog in this rat race
And it leaves you bleeding, lying flat on your face
Reaching out, reaching out for a helping hand
Where is that helping hand?
How I was pushed around
Don't let it get you down
You walked all over me
But don't you ever give in
Taking one step forward, slipping two steps back
There's an empty feeling that you can't forget
Reaching out, reaching out
For a helping hand, for a helping hand
When I met you you were always charming
Couldn't sleep at night 'till you were mine
You were oh, so so sophisticated
Never interested in what I'd say
I had to swallow my pride
So naive, you took me for a ride
But now I'm the one to decide
Who needs? Well, I don't need, who needs you?
It's late
(May)
You say you love me
And I hardly know your name
And if I say I love you in the candle light
There's no one but myself to blame
But there's something inside
That's turning my mind away
Oh, how I could love you
If I could let you stay?
It's late - and I'm bleeding deep inside
It's late - is it just my sickly pride?
Too late - even now the feeling seems to steal away
So late - though I'm crying I can't help but hear you say
It's late
It's late
It's late
But not too late
The way you love me is the sweetest love around
But after all this time
The more I'm trying
The more I seem to let you down
Now you tell me you're leaving
And I just can't believe it's true
Oh, you know that I can love you
Though I know I can't be true
Oh, you made me love you
Don't tell me that we're through
It's late - and it's driving me so mad
It's late - yes, I know, but don't try and tell me that it's
Too late - save our love, you can't turn out the light
So late - I've been wrong but I'll learn to be right
It's late
It's late
It's late
But not too late
I've been so long, you've been so long
We've been so long tryin' to work it out
I ain't got long, you ain't got long
We've gotta know what this life's all about
You're staring at me
With suspicion in your eye
You say: "What game are you playing?"
"What's this that you're saying?"
I know that I can't reply
If I take you tonight is it making my life a lie?
Oh, you make me wonder
Did I live my life right?
It's late - but it's time to set me free
It's late - yes, I know, but there's no way it has to be
Too late - so let the fire take our bodies this night
So late - let the waters take our guilt in the tide
It's late
It's late
It's late
It's late
It's late
It's late
It's late
It's all too late
My melancholy blues
(Mercury)
Another party's over and I'm left cold sober
My baby left me for somebody new
I don't wanna talk about it, want to forget about it
Wanna be intoxicated with that special brew
So come and get me, let me
Get in that sinking feeling
That says my heart is on an all time low
So don't expect me to behave perfectly
And wear that sunny smile
My guess is I'm in for a cloudy and overcast
Don't try and stop me
'Cause I'm heading for that stormy weather soon
I'm causing a mild sensation with this new occupation
I'm permanently glued to this extraordinary mood
So now move over and let me take over
With my melancholy blues
I'm causing a mild sensation with this new occupation
I'm in the news, I'm just getting used
To my new exposure, come into my enclosure
And meet my melancholy blues
