Translation
Bilingual
Heroes, villains, blue faded underglass
Bow-tied men, rip tickets to pieces
Semi-naked statues, full wooden ashtrays
Curtained enclaves, where mischief thrives
Red velvet, brandy, smell of corn candy floss
Usherettes with torches, frolic naked in the wings
Cellophane, crackle, Movietone, old news
Lads on the front, and around the empire
Cigar, Winston, in ruins of Berlin
Spitfire and anthem, news from abroad
Waiting for the lantern, the light of the dream
Gift-wrapped in evergreen, picture palace
Now I close my eyes
Now I close my eyes
Now I close my eyes
Now I close my eyes
