Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Maten Las Ballenas by El Cuarteto de Nos from Spanish to English.
de chiquito odiaba a la naturaleza
when I was little I hated nature
a mis mascotas con insidia torturaba
I tortured my pets with insidiousness
a las rosas y a la flor de la cereza
to the roses and the cherry blossom
con kerosen y amoníaco regaba
with kerosene and ammonia he watered
ahora no me fumo a los ecologistas
now I don't smoke environmentalists
y greenpeace es un gran curro no lo dudo
and greenpeace is a great job I don't doubt it
todos era antes unos comunistas
everyone was once a communist
y cousteau era solo un viejo pelotudo
and cousteau was just an old fool
que me chupa que la tierra un día no se pueda habitar
What sucks me that one day the earth cannot be inhabited
cuando reviente yo ya no voy a estar
when it bursts I will no longer be there
mirá como tiemblo, yo ya no voy a estar
look how I tremble, I'm not going to be there anymore
me gusta ver a un pingüino empetrolado
I like to see a penguin covered in oil
y que un incendio arrase la selva de uganda
and a fire destroys the jungle of Uganda
quiero que el delfín willy no sea liberado
I want the dolphin Willy not to be released
y comerme un churrasquito de oso panda
and eat a panda bear steak
que me chupa que la tierra un día no se pueda habitar
What sucks me that one day the earth cannot be inhabited
cuando reviente yo ya no voy a estar
when it bursts I will no longer be there
mirá como tiemblo, yo ya no voy a estar
look how I tremble, I'm not going to be there anymore
quiero matar ballenas hasta exterminarlas
I want to kill whales until they are exterminated
y que todos los bosques por fin se talen
and that all the forests are finally cut down
las lagunas con basura rellenarlas
fill the gaps with garbage
y poner bombas en el discovery channel
and put bombs on the discovery channel
que me chupa que la tierra un día no se pueda habitar
What sucks me that one day the earth cannot be inhabited
cuando reviente yo ya no voy a estar
when it bursts I will no longer be there
mirá como tiemblo, yo ya no voy a estar
look how I tremble, I'm not going to be there anymore
cuando reviente yo ya no voy a estar
when it bursts I will no longer be there
mirá como tiemblo, yo ya no voy a estar
look how I tremble, I'm not going to be there anymore
