These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Yo era un pobre muchacho
I was a poor boy
Un pringadete de un barrio
A slob from a neighborhood
Un currela, un tiradete
A currela, a tiradete
Un chaval, un fracasado
A kid, a failure
De esos que se la trae floja
One of those who brings it loose
Lo que diga el telediario
what the news says
Boletines oficiales
official bulletins
Solo conocía mi barrio
I only knew my neighborhood
¿Qué voy a hacer yo?
¿What am I gong to do?
¿Qué puedo hacer yo?
What can I do?
De quién debo defenderme
Who should I defend myself from?
Si no conozco enemigos
If I don't know enemies
Si el sonido de las balas
If the sound of the bullets
Ya me produce terror
It already terrifies me
¿Qué voy a hacer yo?
¿What am I gong to do?
¿Qué puedo hacer yo?
What can I do?
Este presente tan chungo
This crappy present
Se convirtió en gran futuro
became great future
Soy joven uniformado
I'm young in uniform
Con galones en los puños
With stripes on the cuffs
Y esto es lo que me faltaba
And this is what I was missing
Lo que siempre había ansiado
What I had always longed for
Era que alguien me mandara
It was that someone sent me
Y me ordenara hacer fregados
And he will order me to do the washing up
Algo que también me gusta
something i like too
Es una hostia de vez en cuando
It sucks from time to time
Pa' no olvidar de donde vengo
Pa' not forget where I come from
Y saber quien tiene el mando
And know who is in control
Lo mas hermoso de todo
The most beautiful of all
Es ser útil a la patria
It is to be useful to the country
De esta forma que lo hago
this way i do it
En mi pecho con dos balas
In my chest with two bullets
