"Not Going Away" by Ozzy Osbourne
= 2007 =

Not Going Away ♫ Я не уйду


Don't tell me I'm wrong ♫ Не говори мне, что я не прав.
Don't tell me that you knew all along ♫ Не говори мне, что ты знал всё с самого начала.
I won't roll over dead ♫ Я не буду переступать через трупы,
Only I know what goes on in my head ♫ Ведь только я знаю, что творится у меня в голове.

I've got nothing to hide ♫ Мне нечего скрывать,
I'm not guilty inside ♫ Я ни в чём не виноват,
I won't give up ♫ И потому я не сдамся.
After all I'm still crazy ♫ В конце концов, я всё ещё безумен.

I'm not going away, I'm not going ♫ Я не уйду, не уйду.
Try so hard to break me but all your diamonds turn to sand ♫ Ты так старался сломить меня, но вся твоя решительность увяла.
I'm not going away, I'm not going ♫ Я не уйду, не сдаюсь.
Say goodbye forever, I'll wait for you in no man's land ♫ Скажи "прощай" навсегда, я буду ждать тебя на ничейной земле.

Get out of my way ♫ Уйди с моего пути,
There's nothing you can do to change what I say ♫ Ведь тебе никак не изменить сказанного мною.
I won't ever let go ♫ Я же тебя даже не отпущу.
I got the answer but you'll never know ♫ У меня есть ответ, но тебе его никогда не узнать.

I got my eyes open wide ♫ Я широко открыл глаза,
Ain't gonna slip up or slide ♫ Не собираясь ошибаться или оступаться.
Can't take me down ♫ Тебе меня не унизить.
After all I'm still crazy ♫ В конце концов, я всё ещё безумен.

I'm not going away, I'm not going ♫ Я не уйду, не уйду.
Try so hard to break me but all your diamonds turn to sand ♫ Ты так старался сломить меня, но вся твоя решительность увяла.
I'm not going away, I'm not going ♫ Я не уйду, не сдаюсь.
Say goodbye forever, I'll wait for you in no man's land ♫ Скажи "прощай" навсегда, я буду ждать тебя на ничейной земле.

I'm not going away ♫ Я не уйду...
I'm not going away ♫ Я не уйду...
I'm not going away ♫ Я не уйду...
I'm not going away ♫ Я не уйду...
I'm not going away ♫ Я не уйду...
I'm not going away ♫ Я не уйду...
I'm not going away ♫ Я не уйду...
I'm not going away ♫ Я не сдаюсь...

I'm not going away, I'm not going ♫ Я не уйду, не уйду.
Try so hard to break me but all your diamonds turn to sand ♫ Ты так старался сломить меня, но вся твоя решительность увяла.
I'm not going away, I'm not going ♫ Я не уйду, не сдаюсь.
Say goodbye forever, I'll wait for you in no man's land ♫ Скажи "прощай" навсегда, я буду ждать тебя на ничейной земле.
I'm not going away ♫ Я не уйду.
I'm not going away ♫ Я не уйду.
I'm not going away, I'm not going ♫ Я не уйду, не сдаюсь.
Say goodbye forever, I'll wait for you in no man's land ♫ Скажи "прощай" навсегда, я буду ждать тебя на ничейной земле.

Аннотация от автора:

I loved Rarity in her detective outfit.  I realized that she had a potential foe already in the show: Cheerilee.  Her 'Smooth Criminal' hat gave me the perfect excuse to create a little cat n' mouse game with our resident ponies. 

Frenetic.  The past two days were just that.  She was hot on my tail and no matter what I did I just could not shake her.  By now I’m sure she has a good idea of who it is she's pursuing.  Not that I’d stop to ask her.  No, my only goal was to stay one step ahead of her, literally and figuratively.  But Sweet Celestia, she was making it difficult.

This whole mess began a week ago.  I had stopped in Twilight’s castle to borrow a book.  The princess was out so I spoke to her assistant.  Spike took my request with all the enthusiasm and attention of baked potato learning calculus.  I had clearly interrupted some other task or activity of his.  Now, either I misinterpreted the rules on returning the book or he simply offered a shoddy explanation.  That remains to be determined.

I took the book, expecting to return it in two weeks’ time.  Somehow, none of that was not conveyed to Twilight. 

I had taken the book with me when I had gone to visit a friend in Canterlot.  It was there that I discovered that I was a suspect. I overheard gossip at a local cafe: One of the princess's favorite books had been stolen.  Well isn't that just fine?  I retreated to my hotel room, paranoid that everypony knew I was a fugitive.  I paced, trying to calm myself.  I looked out the window.  Then I saw her.  In the square below she stood out quite well in her detective outfit.  That silly thing.  Yet I knew she meant business.  I left in haste.         

I would be remiss if I failed to mention that I am wholly unaccustomed to being pursued in such a manner.  Yet here I am, racing through dank alleyways in a part of Canterlot barely fit for Diamond Dogs.  The posh and glamour of the city during the day dissipated into a fog of debauchery and grime during the night.  How quaint. What worried me more than the grim and shady characters was that I found enjoyment in being chased.  There was a thrill that teaching just couldn't provide. 

I found I had to do more than just keep moving.  Like a changeling at a costume party, I had to be everypony.  Disguises became my friends.  This little getup you see here is quite fetching, if I'm being honest.  But fashion talk will have to wait.  At this point I simply want to get back to Twilight before Rarity can find me.  Then I'd win.

I could easily explain the situation to Twilight.  She's amenable and forgiving of misunderstanding.  Rarity, however, would be less likely to believe such a tale.  Congenial and understanding is her natural state.  When she plays detective, however, she becomes less hospitable to stories and alibis, no matter their veracity. I’m not allowing myself to be turned in like some common criminal.  Therefore, I run.

You can offer me a diamond-plated pearl;
You can send me all the riches in the world;
You can tempt me with the palaces of kings;
I'd give 'em back in a big ol' sack and keep the simple things

I've got the simple things; I've got the rain in spring,
Got spicy chicken wings, and French-fried onion rings

You can line me up a mile of limousines;
For me it don't add up to a hill o' beans;
I got no hankerin' for grabbin' your brass ring;
It's crystal clear - I'll stay right here and keep the simple things

I've got the summer breeze, got 16 cans of peas,
A two-speed window fan when it's 93 degrees,
So forgive me for not grabbin' your brass ring;
It's crystal clear - I'll stay right here and keep the simple things
It's crystal clear - I'll stay right here and keep the simple things

Перевод:

И собери мне жемчуга со всей вселенной,
И богатства всего мира подари,
И построй ты мне дворцы красы нетленной,
Уйду и буду, я буду жить в дали от них, далеко от них
Весенний теплый дождь, веселый щебет птиц
Дороже всех богатств на свете мне, е, е, е, е!
И десяток лимузинов я, мой друг,
На пучок простых бобов не променяю.
И богатства, что прельщают всех вокруг,
Ради жизни и свободы оставляю.
