Ésta es la muerte que te viene a buscar
This is the death that comes to look for you
No creo
I don't think so
Te está buscando por todo el Uruguay
He is looking for you all over Uruguay
No puedo
Can't
Ahora iba a pagar la cuenta del gas
Now I was going to pay the gas bill
Y mañana tengo que ir a trabajar
And tomorrow I have to go to work
Las horas del mes ya me las tomé
I already took the hours of the month
Así que ni miras que vaya a faltar
So you don't even see that it's going to be missing
Tengo que pagar ahora el alquiler
I have to pay the rent now
Y la cuota del calefón también
And the heating fee too
Yo no puedo irme así sin avisar
I can't leave like this without warning
Si me muero ahora me van a matar
If I die now they are going to kill me
Es el momento nos tenemos que ir
It's time we have to go
Ta' luego
Ta' later
Basta de bromas ya te toca morir
Enough jokes, it's your turn to die.
No quiero
I don't want to
Pasan el partido por la televisión
They show the game on TV
Ya va deteniéndose tu corazón
Your heart is already stopping
Pero tengo mucho para organizar
But I have a lot to organize
Ahora solo te tenés que relajar
Now you just have to relax
Por el túnel negro vas hacia la luz
Through the black tunnel you go towards the light
¡uy, la UTE! ¡Sáquenme del ataúd!
oops, the UTE! Get me out of the coffin!
Mañana el cuarenta y siete va a salir, tenemos que irnos
Tomorrow the forty-seventh is going out, we have to go
¡no quiero morir!
I don't want to die!
