Текст, перевод и аккорды “My Winter Coat”
- The fit is generous and loose The coat is filled with down of goose Should i feel guilty about that? I wouldn't wear the fur of a cat The coat is black so in new york city It doesn't look dirty it stays pretty The cuffs are purple which perfectly suits A pair i already had of boots Can't help sharing on a personal note A secret i have concerning the coat One of the reasons that it got my vote Is the way it lies open around the throat For me th collar mustn't come too high Because well all right my skin is dry So each morning i rub my face with oil And the fabric you see the grease could soil Can we speak a moment about the lining After my own heart's designing It's nylon so your skirts don't wind Up in a bunch around you behind When the time comes for the coat to clean You throw this thing in the washing machine Drying you doubt but the filling does fluff I'm here to proclaim this coat is enough The length of the coat is below the knees So in the cold your legs don't freeze I'm nuts about another one of its charms There's plenty of room underneath the arms The coat's not bulky it weighs about an ounce And it's practically void of any frivolous flounce I will admit it has shoulder pads All things considered it's not so bad It looks all right even from the side I guess because the bottom isn't overly wide Okay so you say you'd prefer something hipper But can i just tell you about the zipper I searched for it for many years Last one i had i tore up in tears It turned me into jack the ripper But now i stepped in cinderella's slipper It runs from the gullet to just south of the crotch And workin' it's a task you can hardly botch It's made of a material that will not rust It won't get stuck you don't get fussed It undoes easily in the usual way But you can also pull it up if you'd like to, let's say There's snaps as well which i don't even use But they beat out buttons if i had to choose I remember the night i went to the store Fighting my way across the cloak-stuffed floor Suffocating i was it seemed When from a rack this last hope beamed Of all my requirements i pursued the trail To find furthermore the damn thing was on sale It had a small chain at the back of the neck So you could hang it on a hook but it broke what the heck With the end of each sleeve i'm totally smitten Ample space for to emerge a thick mitten If you wanna be warm it wins far and away It's like walkin' around in your bed all day I know you're not supposed to be so fond of a thing But today this is my heartfelt inspiration to sing I hope you don't think i'm merely trying to be clever I wish this coat would last forever
