These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Todo empezó cuando aquella serpiente
It all started when that snake
Me trajo una manzana y dijo prueba
He brought me an apple and said try
Yo me llamaba Adán
my name was Adam
Seguramente tú te llamabas Eva
Surely your name was Eva
Vivíamos de scuoters en un piso
We lived as scuoters in a flat
Abandonado de Moratalaz
Abandoned by Moratalaz
Si no has estado allí
If you haven't been there
No has visto el paraíso terrenal
You have not seen the earthly paradise
Cogimos un colchón de una basura
We took a mattress from a garbage
Dos sillas y una mesa con tres patas
Two chairs and a table with three legs
Mientras yo emborronaba partituras
While I was smearing sheet music
Tu freías las patatas
you fried the potatoes
Plantamos cañamones de ketama
We plant ketama hempseeds
Y un tiesto nos creció ante el ventanal
And a pot grew before the window
Con una rama de árbol
With a tree branch
De la ciencia del bien y del mal
Of the knowledge of good and evil
A Eva le gustaba estar morena
Eva liked to be dark
Y se tumbaba cada tarde al sol
And she lay every afternoon in the sun
Nadie vio nunca una sirena
Nobody ever saw a mermaid
Tan desnuda en un balcón
so naked on a balcony
Pronto en cada ventana hubo un marido
Soon in every window there was a husband
A la hora en que montaba el show mi chica
At the time my girl put on the show
Aunque en la tele diera en diferido
Although on TV she gave deferred
El Real Madrid - Benfica
Real Madrid - Benfica
Un día la víbora del entresuelo
One day the viper of the mezzanine
En trance a su consorte sorprendió
In a trance her consort surprised
Formó un revuelo y telefoneó al 092
She made a fuss and phoned 092
Y como no teníamos apellidos
And since we didn't have last names
Ni hojas de parra, ni un tío concejal
Neither fig leaves, nor an uncle councilor
Ni más Dios que Cupido
No more God than Cupid
No sirvió de nada protestar
It was no use protesting
Eva tomando el sol, bendito descontrol
Eva sunbathing, blessed lack of control
Besos, cebolla y pan, que más quieres Adán
Kisses, onion and bread, what else do you want, Adam?
Un juez que se creía Dios dispuso
A judge who believed that God ordered
Que precintara un guardia nuestro piso
That a guard seal our apartment
No quedan plazas para dos intrusos en el paraíso
There are no places left for two intruders in paradise
Estábamos sobre el colchón desnudos
We were on the mattress naked
Jugando a nuestro juego favorito
playing our favorite game
Al ver entrar la pasma
Seeing the crowd enter
Eva no pudo sofocar un grito
Eva couldn't stifle a scream
A golpes la bajó por la escalera
She beat her down the stairs
Un ángel disfrazado de alguacil
An angel disguised as a bailiff
Sin importarle un pijo
Not giving a damn
Que estuviera encinta de Caín
That she was with child by Cain
Hoy Eva vende en un supermercado
Today Eva sells in a supermarket
Manzanas del pecado original
apples of original sin
Yo canto en la calle Preciados
I sing in Preciados street
Todos me llaman Adán
everyone calls me Adam
