Mark Ronson & The Business Intl - Record Collection [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Intro: Wiley]
Eskiboy, Mark Ronson
Put this one in your record box!

[Verse 1: Mark Ronson]
I take too long to answer telephones
I take too long to type my name and record messages
But my hand writing is excellent, in fact, it's second to none, none
I just got in from somewhere really good
They offered me the part of Bono and a speaking role
With all the merchandise and sunglasses I could ever need, need
I drive 'round cities in a chariot
I get preferential treatment at the Marriott
But if the truth be told, I'm naked under all these clothes

[Chorus: Simon Le Bon]
I'll tell you what it is on my mind, woah
I only want to be in your record collection, woah, aaah
I only want to be in your record collection, woah, aaah
And I'll do anything it takes just to get there

[Verse 2: Mark Ronson]
My brain is buzzing and the room is strange
Like that scene in Trading Places at the stock exchange
I made a million overnight in '87
Now I'm living in my parking space, parking space
My teeth are bright and my hair is clean
I wear Paco Rabanne like I was Charlie Sheen
But in the rain we all look wet, and in the snow we all look cold

[Chorus: Simon Le Bon]
I'll tell you what it is on my mind, woah
I only want to be in your record collection, woah, aaah
I only want to be in your record collection, woah, aaah
And I'll do anything it takes just to get there

[Break: Wiley]
Yo, Eskiboy
A-listed (A-listed)

[Verse 3: Wiley]
Disgusted by all the flashness
I think I'm a don, they think I'm an actor but I catch this (Catch)
My two needs are a pillow and a mattress
Once I can fill up the space with a famous actress
Give me a mil', I'll do a DJ set
I pull spikey with the green like a cactus
Showoff, ego's high, you can't match this
Chauvinistic pig, Money Man tactics

[Verse 4: Mark Ronson]
I'm not as clever as I thought I was
It got pointed out to me as I was tying the knot
And all I want to know is how I got so far down, down
I'm not as lucky as I thought I was
My luck ran out the other day as I was crossing the road
Who would have thought a truck like that could cause so much...?

[Chorus: Simon Le Bon]
I'll tell you what it is on my mind, woah
I only want to be in your record collection, woah, aaah
I only want to be in your record collection, woah, aaah
And I'll do anything it takes just to get there
