Владимир Лешмер - Пятнадцать лет назад
текст песни

I remember the day when in alarm and confusion
When in July the world blooms like a Garden
As soon as the training graduated from the establishment
I stepped a factory fifteen years ago

But I was not addressed to production
And in a quiet workshop, where there are more women than men
Where they know chemistry and value floriculture
And I stayed there for many reasons

Since then, days, months, and years have passed
Who knows how many changes we got
Unpredictable, sometimes like a weather shift
And endless, like a Chinese wall

I remember the salary was given through the cash desks
There was a man to whom the whole workshop could entrust
We went to meet her three, for the larger mass
To get money without queue

Then there was a crisis, and cash was canceled
Given only for housing and travel
And they charged something under the salary
And additional coupons are not cut

Well, think, and we are happy
In the morning to the dining room, and then to the store
Then lunch, sleep, you look, and again you need
Caught for the distribution of consumer baskets

What were the specialists before here
Science was moved, the workshops were put into operation
And their professionalism was so frenzy
That we were afraid to argue with them sometimes

But everyone has gone for a long time: who is himself, and who is not very
Well, but others simply did not find
And young, those who remained, that there are urine
All of them had to study again

But they pulled themselves up !!! The belts were tightened
And just began to squeamish positive
But with the leadership in the workshop it suddenly became worse
And the work team howled again with a wolf

Let our workshop before stand out with beauty
But now what kind of repairs have drunk
After all, even in those corners where the horse did not lie
A very small fund was taken for decoration

From the needle of the wall, ceilings, the doors were changed
On the windows of the blinds - convenience and comfort
Here are just pipes that rusted over the years
Not replaced, and now they flow

And so since then they are periodically removed
Either tiles from the floor, then from the walls of drywall
Quite in Russian: either they will build, then they will break
And redo it after

There is no way to count, there were a lot of events
The abolition of benefits, engineers have an important test
Quality system, educational anxiety
And certification of native jobs

Drove the drinkers, who was reduced
Pensioners did not give prospects
And the reorganization was broken
Once in the past an indivisible team

What will happen next - everything is in conjecture and hope
Who knows, maybe we are waiting in the future success
But the workshop stands ours and works as before
And, by the way, this is the same workshop

Let me work for a long time in a new place
But in the same way at five o'clock I hurry home
And every time we go together again
At the end of the work at the central passage

And in the morning I see how the people come
How light is lit in the familiar windows
And even someone distinguish someone’s faces, like
People with whom he worked for so many years

I will look out the window when the soul involuntarily asks
Okina's gaze of the repainted facade
And again my memories take away
I'm somewhere fifteen years ago
