Robbie Fairchild - Old Deuteronomy [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Robbie Fairchild]
Old Deuteronomy's lived a long time
She’s a Cat who has lived many lives in succession
She was famous in Proverb and famous in rhyme
A long while before Queen Victoria's accession

Old Deuteronomy's lived many lives
No, I am tempted to say ninety-nine
And her numerous progeny prospers and thrives
And the village is proud of her in her decline

At the sight of that placid and bland physiognomy
When she sits in the sun on the vicarage wall
Oldest inhabitant croaks
"Well, of all things, can it be really?
Yes, no, oh, hi, oh my eye!
My mind may be wandering, but I confess
I believe it is Old Deuteronomy!"

[Robbie Fairchild & Ensemble]
Well, of all things, can it be really?
Yes, no, oh, hi, oh my eye!
My mind may be wandering, but I confess
I believe it is Old Deuteronomy!
Well, of all things, can it be really?
Yes, no, oh, hi, oh my eye!
My mind may be wandering, but I confess
I believe it is Old Deuteronomy!
Well, of all things, can it be really?
Yes, no, oh, hi, oh my eye!

[Judi Dench]
My legs may be tottery, I must go slow
And be careful of Old Deuteronomy
