Olor A Gas
Café Tacvba
Lyrics
Translation
En la cocina hay olor a gas
In the kitchen there's a smell of gas
esta todo apagado, hay luna en paz
Everything's turned off, there's peaceful moonlight
No tengo hambre, voy a revisar
I'm not hungry, I'll check
Hay masa en el horno, y no es de pan
There's dough in the oven, and it's not for bread
Olor a una carne
A smell of meat
mantel y sal
Tablecloth and salt
Es semana santa
It's Holy Week
sol celestial
Celestial sun
Sin sabanas
Without sheets
sin un colchón
Without a mattress
Duerme tranquilo como un liron
Sleeps peacefully like a dormouse
Seco el corazón
Dried-up heart
En la cocina hay olor a gas
In the kitchen there's a smell of gas
Esta todo apagado hay luna en paz
Everything's turned off, peaceful moonlight
Busco mi camisa a tientas, voy a desfilar
I search blindly for my shirt, I'll parade
Planchada y de fiesta, hay olor a gas
Ironed and festive, there's a smell of gas
Olor a una carne
A smell of meat
mantel y sal
Tablecloth and salt
Es semana santa
It's Holy Week
sol celestial
Celestial sun
Sin sabanas
Without sheets
sin un colchón
Without a mattress
Duerme tranquilo como un liron
Sleeps peacefully like a dormouse
Seco el corazón
Dried-up heart
