I was wandering in the rain
Mask of life, feelin’ insane
Swift and sudden fall from grace
Sunny days seem far away
Kremlin’s shadow belittlin’ me
Stalin’s tomb won’t let me be
On and on and on it came
Wish the rain would just let me be
How does it feel
(How does it feel)
How does it feel
How does it feel
When you’re alone
And you’re cold inside
Here abandoned in my fame
Armageddon of the brain
KGB was doggin’ me
Take my name and just let me be
Then a begger boy called my name
Happy days will drown the pain
On and on and on it came
In the rain, and again, and again
Take my name and just let me be
How does it feel
(How does it feel)
How does it feel
How does it feel
(How does it feel)
How does it feel
(How does it feel now)
How does it feel
How does it feel
When you’re alone
And you’re cold inside
How does it feel
(How does it feel)
How does it feel
How does it feel
How does it feel
How does it feel
(How does it feel now)
How does it feel
How does it feel
When you’re alone
And you’re cold inside
Like a stranger in Moscow
(Lord have mercy)
Like a stranger in Moscow
(Lord have mercy)
We’re talkin’ danger
We’re talkin’ danger baby
Like a stranger in Moscow
We’re talkin’ danger
We’re talkin’ danger baby
Like a stranger in Moscow
I’m livin’ lonely
I’m livin’ lonely, baby
A stranger in Moscow
KGB Interrogatory (Russian to English translation):
“Why have you come from the West? Confess!
To steal the great achievements of the people,
the accomplishments of the workers..."
traduzione
A zonzo nella pioggia
una maschera, mi sentivo pazzo
una improvvisa e rapida caduta dalla grazia
le belle giornate sembravano lontane
l'ombra del Cremlino mi fa sentire insignificante
la tomba di Stalin non mi dà pace
continuava e continuava
vorrei che la pioggia mi lasciasse in pace
come ci si sente (x3)
quando sei solo e dentro hai freddo
abbandonato qui con la mia fama
il giudizio finale del cervello
il KGB alle calcagna
scriviti il mio nome e lasciami stare
poi un piccolo mendicante mi chiamò
giorni felici annulleranno il dolore
e continuava e continuava
sempre sempre sempre....
scriviti il mio nome e lasciami stare
come ci si sente (x7)
quando sei solo e dentro hai freddo
come uno straniero a Mosca
come un estraneo a Mosca
stiamo parlando è pericoloso, è pericoloso cara come uno straniero a Mosca (x2)
vivo nella solitudine,vivo nella solitudine cara
un estraneo a Mosca
(agente del KGB-traduzione dal russo)
"Perchè sei venuto dall'occidente?
Confessa! Per rubare i progressi del
popolo, i successi dei lavoratori..."
