Hoy es martes creo
Today is Tuesday I think
Bajo el sol nada nuevo
Under the sun nothing new
Ansio mirar el cielo
Eager to look at the sky
Y solo veo el rascacielos
And I only see the skyscraper
Mi pie izquierdo me mira
My left foot looks at me
Con esa sonrisa
With that smile
Entre línea y enseguida
Between the line and right away
Empieza uno de sus días
Start one of your days
De los que prefieres
Of the ones you prefer
Borrar del calendario

Que parece un calvario
What seems like an ordeal
De lo fome y rutinario
Of the fome and routine
El mismo uniforme uniformado
Same uniformed uniform
Puesto por todo el vecindario
Put all over the neighborhood
Será necesario vestirse así a diario
It will be necessary to dress like this on a daily basis
Mientras el diario y su portada
While the newspaper and its front page
Otra modelo enamorada

De un famoso con la labia

En la fila del metro

Que me lleve allá al desierto

Ya que solo tengo

Con la mala suerte en los bolsillos

Que cambie mi destino

Cerca las siete

Un viaje hice el adiós que me promete

Esa es la que hay

Y vestir mala facha

Bienvenido al mundo de las cucarachas
