Текст песни Владимир Высоцкий - Бал - маскарад

Today, our integrated team
 Passed rumor about the ball-masquerade -
 Distributed masks rabbits
 Elephants and alcoholics,
 We assign all this - in a zoo.

 & Quot; Why go in full at the parade -
 Tell me, my joy, for Christ's sake? & Quot;
 She told me: & quot; Get dressed! & Quot; -
 Like, I'm too shy,
 Not that, they say, as always, you will go back.

 & Quot; I dress - said - took Nadia -
 I will now like Marina Vlady
 And carried out, though burst I
 Watch your Sunday
 Though to drunken your face, but in the dress! & Quot;

 ... Why I can ironing, iron? -
 I was caught there in the zoo -
 After all, our Kolka massovik
 He gave me an alcoholic mask -
 And for three zazvali me uncle.

 Once again I found myself in a zoo:
 Lo and behold - two wives - well, two of Marina Vlady! -
 Dressed animals
 With the two behemoths -
 I, too furious - and became an ambush.

 The next morning was given the award in the brigade,
 Told me that at the ball-masquerade
 I if not only
 Played his alcoholic,
 And I was at the hippos in the fence.
