Lift Lullaby (EN)

Продолжая безалкогольную тему... По соседству со мной купил квартирку один экспат, отметил как полагается (правда, меня не пригласил). Отмечал, видимо, неистово, ибо проводив гостей до первого этажа, парень героически выдохся и пал, сражённый зелёным змием. А что ещё надо благодарным соседят? Да, сфоткать спящее в лифте тело и выложить в чат подъезда  :) Сразу пошла куча мемов и фотожаб. Я ограничился Лифтовой Колыбельной  :)
В общем, встречайте:

Lift Lullaby (EN)

Fourteen floors going up and down,
Far away from the noise of the town.
Fluorescent light with a mellow dim,
Steel box swaying like a quiet rhythm.
Press "L" for dreams, press "9" for peace,
Here’s where the daily worries cease!
Wrapped in a blue jacket on the chilling floor,
Safely tucked behind the door!..

It feels so good to get a peaceful sleep
In your home building's lift!
Up and down, a vertical drift,
Forget the bed, forget the sheet,
I’m drifting off to a cable-driven beat.
Yeah, it feels so great to get a good night's sleep
In your home building's lift!

Ding at the four, but nobody gets in.
The night shift stops where the quiet begins.
A smooth, smooth ride in a metal cage,
Out of the rush and off of the stage.
Mirror on the wall watching over my rest,
Button panel glows, heart beats in my chest,
Let the world keep turning outside on the street!
I’m riding high in my soft retreat...

It feels so good to get a peaceful sleep
In your home building's lift!
Up and down, a vertical drift,
Forget the bed, forget the sheet,
I’m drifting off to a cable-driven beat.
Yeah, it feels so great to get a good night's sleep
In your home building's lift!

Someone hits the button on the top floor high,
We’re ascending slow toward the midnight sky!
No alarm clock ringing, just a gentle chime,
A sanctuary frozen in suspended time.

It feels so good to get a peaceful sleep
In your home building's lift!
Up and down, a vertical drift,
Forget the bed, forget the sheet,
I’m drifting off to a cable-driven beat.
Yeah, it feels so great to get a good night's sleep
In your home building's lift!

Going up... Going down...
Swaying slow over the sleeping town...
Ground floor... Doors open wide...
Please don't disturb me, I'll stay inside!..
