Calavera
La Mancha de Rolando
Lyrics
Translation
Vos sabes, calavera
You know, skull
como gira el mar y el sol
how the sea and the sun turn
decirlo no es problema
saying it's not a problem
siempre gira el mar por vos
the sea always turns for you
Si algo te molesta
If something bothers you
agarras la 22
grab the .22
mejor te respetan
they'll respect you better
o van a saber quien sos
or they'll know who you are
Vas a vivir calavera
You're going to live, skull
siempre de la mano
always hand in hand
de tu amigo el dolor
with your friend, pain
Ey! man, calavera, dices que
Hey! man, skull, you say that
esto se parece a Lou Reed
this is like Lou Reed
no man, no te quedes
no man, don't stay
el silencio si te digo que si
silence if I tell you yes
¿por que no dejas el misterio?
why don't you leave the mystery?
decis que son tal para cual
you say they're a perfect match
Vas a vivir calavera
You're going to live, skull
siempre de la mano
always hand in hand
de tu amigo el dolor
with your friend, pain
ya todo el mundo te espera
the whole world is already waiting for you
siempre anesteciado
always anesthetized
como tango feroz
like a ferocious tango
Man...man...man
Man...man...man
Man, yo te espero
Man, I wait for you
man, se quien sos
man, I know who you are
estas lejos.
you are far away.
Pero man, man, man,
But man, man, man,
baja que es mejor
get down, it's better
Y si no, vas a vivir calavera
And if not, you're going to live, skull
siempre de la mano
always hand in hand
de tu amigo el dolor
with your friend, pain
ya todo el mundo te espera
the whole world is already waiting for you
siempre anesteciado
always anesthetized
como tango feroz...
like a ferocious tango...
