Текст (слова) песни: Marianne Faithfull - Want To Buy Some Illusions

Want to buy some illusions
Slightly used, second-hand ?
They were lovely illusions,
Reaching high, built on sand.
They had a touch of paradise,
A spell you can`t explain,
For in this crazy paradise
You are in love with pain.

Want to buy some illusions
Slightly used, just like new ?
Such romantic illusions,
And they`re all about you.
Too bad they all fell apart
Like dreams often do.
They were lovely illusions,
But they just wouldn`t come true.

Slightly used, just like new,
Such romantic illusions
And they`re all about you.
I`d sell them all for a penny,
They make pretty souvenirs.
Take my lovely illusions,
Some for laughs, some for tears.

On this next song, I`m using the translation, a new translation
done by one of my best, best, best, best friends in Ireland,
the playwriter and poet, Frank McGuinness, and he did a new translation
of the Threepenny Opera about four or five years ago, and I played
Pirate Jenny in that production at the Gate Theatre in Dublin.
And I love this translation, I think it`s so exceptional. In
this song, Jenny who is a prostitute and a waitress in a, in
a, in a shitty hotel, er, obviously on the docks, and, and Macheath
is her pimp, is imagining, is having a fantasy of what she would
do to those who oppress her if she could.
