Dude, Viewed as Lady (Aerosmith)

Language: Russian

I'm not actually a fan of Aerosmith at all, really (I kinda like "Janie Got a Gun," and I would like "Crazy," "Cryin'," and "Amazing" except that all three are the same song, with different lyrics.¹), but their songs are very co-operative when Babelpopped. I'm not sure how (or whether) to explain this.

A cursory search of the internet reveals two main theories behind the "real" meaning of this song.

1) One of the band members almost had sex with a man dressed as a woman, by mistake. (1a - or not by mistake. 1b - actually did have sex. 1c - more than one band member.)

2) The song is making fun of another musician. (2a - Bret Michaels, lead singer for Poison. 2b - Vince Neil, of Motley Crue. 2c - both. 2d - neither.)

That, that, dude regards the lady
Which, which, dude regards the lady
Who, that, dude regards a lady
Who, that, dude regards a lady

Cruise on the coast into the rod.
Its image graced door grime,
it'll be a bite longer than love, lost on the first baby.
Which possibly you're incorrect, but you know you're entirely right;
that will be the the first rights, which –

Backstage we will have time
in our real life. "As long as someone's opinion of time
doesn't seem from the line. Forgive me if I'm too . . . ."
Then, she shook up her gun! She attempted to blow me absentee!

Never judge the book by its cover;
say you're gonna love to be a lover of love.
Her love wisely assumed a disguise for me:
she had a Venus body.
Lord! My surprise present!

So baby, it prevented me from following you down
(prevent me from accepting an expensive peek).
Baby, it prevented me from following you down
(make me, make me, make me entire night).
Baby, it prevented me from following you down
(turn another expensive cheek).
Baby, it prevented me from following you down
(make me, make me, make me, make me).

Ooo, that funky lady.
Ooo, she loves it as that.
Ooo – it was a lady!

Dude, dude, dude, the dude regarded the lady,
dude, dude, dude, the dude regarded the lady,
dude, dude, dude, the dude, viewed as a lady,
dude, dude, dude, the dude, viewed as a lady.

Eat Rich People (Aerosmith)

Language: Russian

I would like to be able to comment on the five-year anniversary of 9/11, but since everybody else already has, or is, or will be, there's not much left to be said. I'm suspicious of the annual memorial orgies: I don't think they're meant to serve the interests of the families so much as the interests of certain politicians.

And, really, hasn't 9/11 done more than enough for GWB and Cheney already?

I overslept good, up this morning
on the bed's incorrect side,
and I got to thinking
about all those things you spoke
(about usual people,
how they make you sick).
If hopes are called back, calling on you after this kicks,
then I'll make this trick.

The reason I'll be sick of your complaining
about how many calculations (and with me completely sick about your bitching),
your poodles and your pills, is
even I cannot exactly see any humor
about your road. I don't think life
can make it more for you.
With this here fork and knife . . .

Eat rich people: they are only good for one thing.
Eat the rich: accept one bite now - come back for much more.
Eat the rich: gotta get this from my chest of drawers.
Eat the rich: accept one bite now, then rest from the spitting.

So I head upward to my shrinker,
and I said to him, "Since I was made after you
said it would go to hope, 'the best' means you diet, yeah?
You have a certain fun, which
doesn't bubble?" Explosion. Go
on the rude people, get rich people off,
you will not get any reasoning from anxiety
when you eat that kinda food.
They're on, now smoking up junk fastenings,
and after this they get rigid. They go with themselves,
and they'll be dancing in the yacht club
with Biff and Uncle Muff,
your swine. There, one good thing occurs to Pearl.
When your mosque can try their shit,
they go real good with the Orientation wine.

Wake up your past, little-one, youth will be there by the half.
(Which will not actually be a date, but changes nothing.)
Ruth, you're an immense slammer, babe, but you
gotta learn to carry yourself as if
you will be swinging from a pearly strobe.
And now contemplate all the answers you obtained. Lo, were you
yourself? They obtained the right key, the incorrect key. But yo, baby ho!

Good in all things: believe
that you cannot purchase money, exactly. After this, got it?
No stomach pain will be
from pie eating, which is humble.
I believe the "Rags to Riches"
will not continue. Your inheritance;
your Poupon. Therefore, my gray friend assumed,
shove him up on your ass!

Eat rich people: they are only good for one thing.
Eat the rich: accept one bite now - come back for much more.
Eat the rich people: you won't stop me now, I'll be goin ' crazy.
I eat the rich people: that'll be my idea of a good time, baby.

Janie's obtained a gun.
Her entire peace after me, after me,
unbuttoned from being seen in the sun.

Did she make her papa directly? Does she make it?
Did she place you on the end?

They said when Janie was arrested
he was found under the train,
but men had it coming. Now that Janie's obtained a gun,
it will never not be like this.

I initiated her dog day.
Now she is on the run.
She tells me it is untrue now.
Did her dad make her?
He raised a small baby with a jack;
that man has got to be insane.
He speaks through the letters that were located under
the lightning and thunder; he knew
that someone must stop the rain.

Break into a run,
run away from a pain.
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah.
They did break into a run,
run away from absent pain.

I have initiated her dog days, each on the run.
Does she do her papa now?
This will be Janie's I.O.U.;
The latter must accept it, in order to reduce the light,
and to place a bullet into his brain,
no one believes she said it to me. Which mind is it?
Man was like a sleeze.
He will never not be the same.

Break into a run,
run away from a pain.
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah.
