I don't judge difference, in sense of a beauty
I got an experience and follow law
Say, Albert Einstein the genius of physics
He got relatively and manages all moves

I'm changing appearance, since century asks -
You wanna exclaim by surprise:
"This is just another attractive one guy"
- Believe me it's me and you can advertise!
Sure enough,
All is relatively -
All absolutely. All.

Let's try a loincloth from the fur of a panther
Oh, no. I'm agree that would be too much.
But that was a dress of the era BC,
Since G-strings we wear, and you can that see

What if to appear as a knight in tournament
I hardly can be recognizable, indeed
I'm Richard, you know, Shakespeare entertainment
A horse before me! The half of my kingdom, I bid!

But we gonna smile and do it through laugh
The fashion show headstrong one observer:
This is just another attractive appearance
But this is still me - I'm at your service!

Here's my cane, I wear a boater to be as from NEP **
Let's shorten ovations! We'll save on applause
Already I see I am recognizable - well,
I wear for you what is my best.

Down the boater! I change this my cane for a stick -
I hear they whisper to me, all my ladies:
This is just another attractive one gentleman
My dames - this is still me!
Sure enough,

All absolutely. All.

ORIGINAL RUSSIAN LYRIC
Все Относительно
1
О вкусах не спорят, есть тысяча мнений.
Я этот закон на себе испытал.
Ведь даже Эйнштейн, физический гений,
Весьма относительно все понимал.
R1
Оделся по моде, как требует век-
Вы скажете сами:
- Да это же просто другой человек. -
А я - тот же самый.
Вот уж, действительно
Все относительно,
Все-все. Все.
3
Набедренный пояс из шкуры пантеры...
О да. Неприлично. Согласен, ей-ей!
Но так одевались все до нашей эры,
А до нашей эры им было видней.
R1
Оделся по моде, как требует век-
Вы скажете сами:
- Да это же просто другой человек. -
А я - тот же самый.
Вот уж, действительно
Все относительно,
Все-все. Все.
4
Оденусь, как рыцарь и после турнира
Знакомые вряд ли узнают меня.
И крикну, как Ричард - я в драме Шекспира:
- Коня мне. Полцарства даю за коня.
Но вот усмехнется и скажет сквозь смех
Ценитель упрямый:
- Да это же просто другой человек. -
А я тот же самый.
Вот уж, действительно
Все относительно,
Все-все. Все.
5
Вот трость, канотье... Я из нэп-а. Похоже?
Не надо оваций! К чему лишний шум?
Ах, в этом костюме узнали? Ну что же
Тогда я одену последний костюм.
R3
Долой канотье! Вместо тросточки - стэк. -
И шепчутся дамы:
- Да это же просто другой человек. -
А я тот же самый.
Будьте же бдительны, все относительно,
Все-все. Все.
1966
