Acá me ven en este engrudo
Here you see me in this paste
Donde solo hay lugar para el mas rudo
Where there is only room for the rudest
Te ensartan con la ley del embudo:
They skewer you with the funnel law:
'Lo ancho para ellos y lo angosto para uno'
'The wide for them and the narrow for one'
En la tele un tipo se queja que el mundo es hostil
On TV a guy complains that the world is hostile
Y que va a una misión de paz con un fusil
And that he goes on a peace mission with a rifle
Porque gana cuatro pesos de albañil
Because he earns four pesos as a bricklayer
Mientras el perro de la diva del programa gana mil
While the dog of the diva of the program earns a thousand
Y no parecía mentir
And he didn't seem to lie
El que busca y no encuentra se enloquece
He who seeks and does not find goes crazy
Y el que no está perdido siempre tiene GPS
And the one who is not lost always has GPS
No hay como manejar esta dislexia
There is no way to handle this dyslexia
Dios le da pan a los que tienen anorexia
God gives bread to those who have anorexia
Querés amor y el otro quiere un touch and go
You want love and the other wants a touch and go
La suerte te dice goodbye cuando le decís hello
Luck says goodbye to you when you say hello
Parece un reality show
It looks like a reality show
Más oscuro que un relato de Allan Poe
Darker than an Allan Poe story
No le hago mas ningún favor
I'm not doing you any favors
Que vida ingrata, todo lo que ato el destino lo desata
What an ungrateful life, everything tied by destiny unties it
Que vida ingrata, que te pega por atrás
What an ungrateful life, that hits you from behind
Que vida ingrata, cuando voy ganando en la hora me empata
What an ungrateful life, when I'm winning in the hour I tie
Que vida ingrata, siempre te quita lo que da
What an ungrateful life, it always takes away what it gives
Apenas brillás y te encandila tu brillo
You barely shine and you are dazzled by your brightness
Envejecen las manos pero no los anillos
Hands age but not rings
Que regla injusta!
What an unfair rule!
Quien te gusta no te quiere y quien te quiere no te gusta
Who you like doesn't love you and who loves you doesn't like you
Morís de frío mientras otros van al sauna
You freeze to death while others go to the sauna
Tu novio te dejó después que le curaste el trauma
Your boyfriend left you after you healed his trauma
Te pegan el zarpazo cuando estás de rodillas
They claw you when you're on your knees
La vida no te sonríe ni aunque le hagas cosquillas
Life does not smile at you even if you tickle it
Y todo tiene a empeorar
And everything has to get worse
Que vida ingrata, sacás la lotería el día que estirás la pata
What an ungrateful life, you win the lottery the day you kick the bucket
Que vida ingrata, que te pega por atrás
What an ungrateful life, that hits you from behind
Que vida ingrata, te queda solo un tiro y te sale por la culata
What an ungrateful life, you only have one shot left and it backfires
Que vida ingrata, siempre te quita lo que da
What an ungrateful life, it always takes away what it gives
Y me ataca esa amnesia si algo bueno hay que rememorar
And that amnesia attacks me if something good has to be remembered
Siempre los malos recuerdos son los que perduran mas
Bad memories are always the ones that last the longest.
Y ya no hay compasión, si no quiero hay de a dos
And there is no compassion anymore, if I don't want to, there are two of them
Y cuando justo necesito, de seguro se acabó
And when I just need it, surely it's over
Que vida ingrata!
What a thankless life!
Que vida ingrata!
What a thankless life!
Que vida ingrata! siempre te quita lo que da
What a thankless life! it always takes away what it gives
Que vida ingrata, todo lo que ato el destino lo desata
What an ungrateful life, everything tied by destiny unties it
Que vida ingrata, que te pega por atrás
What an ungrateful life, that hits you from behind
Que vida ingrata, cuando voy ganando en la hora me empata
What an ungrateful life, when I'm winning in the hour I tie
Que vida ingrata, siempre te quita lo que da
What an ungrateful life, it always takes away what it gives
