Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Mate A La Maestra by El Cuarteto de Nos from Spanish to English.
hay algo mamá que te quiero confesar
There is something mom that I want to confess to you
maté a la maestra
I killed the teacher
porque al otro año yo no iba a pasar
because the next year I wasn't going to pass
maté a la maestra
I killed the teacher
vos te ibas a enojar
you were going to get angry
y papá me iba a fajar
and dad was going to fuck me
maté a la maestra
I killed the teacher
me obligaba a desfilar
he forced me to parade
en las fiestas como militar
at parties as a soldier
maté a la maestra
I killed the teacher
y si no cantaba el himno nacional
and if he didn't sing the national anthem
maté a la maestra
I killed the teacher
no paraba de gritar
I couldn't stop screaming
que a nada yo iba a llegar
that I was going to get nowhere
maté a la maestra
I killed the teacher
tu bebito se portó muy mal
your baby behaved very badly
pero no le cuentes a papá
but don't tell dad
fui un chico malo de verdad
I was a real bad boy
juro mami no lo hago más
I swear mommy I won't do it anymore
me quería hacer creer
I wanted to make myself believe
que la biblia era verdad
that the bible was true
maté a la maestra
I killed the teacher
y que todo se arreglaba con rezar
and that everything was fixed with praying
maté a la maestra
I killed the teacher
si a la escuela no voy más
If I don't go to school anymore
la plata que te vas a ahorrar
the money you are going to save
maté a la maestra
I killed the teacher
tu bebito se portó muy mal
your baby behaved very badly
pero no le cuentes a papá
but don't tell dad
fui un chico malo de verdad
I was a real bad boy
te juro mami no lo hago más
I swear mommy I won't do it anymore
mató a la maestra
killed the teacher
mató a la maestra
killed the teacher
mató a la maestra
killed the teacher
mató a la maestra
killed the teacher
mató a la maestra
killed the teacher
mató a la maestra
killed the teacher
mató a la maestra
killed the teacher
tu bebito se portó muy mal
your baby behaved very badly
pero no le cuentes a papá
but don't tell dad
fui un chico malo de verdad
