Translation

Montadas en sus máquinas de coser se ven llegar

Riding on their sewing machines, they can be seen arriving

Cinco viejas por el cruel camino hacia la cuidad

Five old ladies on the cruel road to the city


Y detrás de su cabalgar

And behind their ride

Un polvo se ve levantar

Dust can be seen rising

Escombros de sus vidas

Debris from their lives

Destrozadas por luchar

Destroyed by fighting


Perdiendo el respeto, las viejas del cuarteto

Losing respect, the old ladies of the quartet

Se olvidan de todo, siempre jugando al teto

They forget everything, always playing "teto"

Y al que no es de tajo, le importan tres carajos

And for those not in the loop, they couldn't care less


Y la gente del lugar, reacciona ante su aparición

And the people of the place react to their appearance

Hay quien critica hay quien aclama, hay quien se queda en su balcón.

Some criticize, some applaud, some stay on their balcony


Y los estúpidos se acercan, para así poder mofarse

And the stupid ones approach, to mock them

Y los imbéciles imploran con ellas fotografiarse

And the fools beg to have their pictures taken with them


Perdiendo el respeto, las viejas del cuarteto

Losing respect, the old ladies of the quartet

Se olvidan de todo, siempre jugando al teto

They forget everything, always playing "teto"

Y al que no es de tajo, le importan tres carajos

And for those not in the loop, they couldn't care less


Montadas en sus máquinas de coser se ven partir

Riding on their sewing machines, they can be seen leaving

Cinco viejas para el sendero nunca repetir

Five old ladies so as to never repeat the path


Y sus canciones y poemas tendrán diverso destino

And their songs and poems will have different destinies

Algunas te harán recordar que en invierno no hay pepinos

Some will remind you that there are no cucumbers in winter


Perdiendo el respeto, las viejas del cuarteto

Losing respect, the old ladies of the quartet

Se olvidan de todo, siempre jugando al teto

They forget everything, always playing "teto"

Y al que no es de tajo, le importan tres carajos

And for those not in the loop, they couldn't care less
