Bob Dylan "No time to think" testo

Traduzione in:fr

No time to think

In death, you face life with a child and a wifeWho sleep-walks through your dreams into wallsYou’re a soldier of mercy, you’re cold and you curse“He who cannot be trusted must fall”

Loneliness, tenderness, high society, notorietyYou fight for the throne and you travel aloneUnknown as you slowly sinkAnd there’s no time to think

In the Federal City you been blown and shown pityIn secret, for pieces of changeThe empress attracts you but oppression distracts youAnd it makes you feel violent and strange

Memory, ecstasy, tyranny, hypocrisyBetrayed by a kiss on a cool night of blissIn the valley of the missing linkAnd you have no time to think

Judges will haunt you, the country priestess will want youHer worst is better than bestI’ve seen all these decoys through a set of deep turquoise eyesAnd I feel so depressed

China doll, alcohol, duality, mortalityMercury rules you and destiny fools youLike the plague, with a dangerous winkAnd there’s no time to think

Your conscience betrayed you when some tyrant waylaid youWhere the lion lies down with the lambI’d have paid off the traitor and killed him much laterBut that’s just the way that I am

Paradise, sacrifice, mortality, realityBut the magician is quicker and his gameIs much thicker than blood and blacker than inkAnd there’s no time to think

Anger and jealousy’s all that he sells usHe’s content when you’re under his thumbMadmen oppose him, but your kindness throws himTo survive it you play deaf and dumb

Equality, liberty, humility, simplicityYou glance through the mirror and there’s eyes staring clearAt the back of your head as you drinkAnd there’s no time to think

Warlords of sorrow and queens of tomorrowWill offer their heads for a prayerYou can’t find no salvation, you have no expectationsAnytime, anyplace, anywhere

Mercury, gravity, nobility, humilityYou know you can’t keep her and the water gets deeperThat is leading you onto the brinkBut there’s no time to think

You’ve murdered your vanity, buried your sanityFor pleasure you must now resistLovers obey you but they cannot sway youThey’re not even sure you exist

Socialism, hypnotism, patriotism, materialismFools making laws for the breaking of jawsAnd the sound of the keys as they clinkBut there’s no time to think

The bridge that you travel on goes to the Babylon girlWith the rose in her hairStarlight in the East and you’re finally releasedYou’re stranded but with nothing to share

Loyalty, unity, epitome, rigidityYou turn around for one real last glimpse of Camille’Neath the moon shinin’ bloody and pinkAnd there’s no time to think

Bullets can harm you and death can disarm youBut no, you will not be deceivedStripped of all virtue as you crawl through the dirtYou can give but you cannot receive

No time to choose when the truth must dieNo time to lose or say goodbyeNo time to prepare for the victim that’s thereNo time to suffer or blinkAnd no time to think
