Después de toda una vida de oficina y disimulo,
After a lifetime of office and disguise,
Después de toda una vida sin poder mover el culo,
After a lifetime without being able to move your ass,
Después de toda una vida viendo a la gente decente,
After a lifetime of seeing decent people,
Burlarse de los que buscan amor a contra corriente,
Make fun of those who seek love against the current,
Después de toda una vida in un triste devaneo
After a lifetime in a sad dalliance
Coleccionando miradas en el desván del deseo
Collecting glances in the attic of desire
De pronto un día
suddenly one day
Pasaste de pensar que pensarían
You went from thinking that they would think
Si lo supieran
if they knew
Tu mujer, tus hijos, tu portera
Your wife, your children, your concierge
Y te fuiste a la calle
and you went to the street
Con tacones y bolso y Felipe el Hermoso por el talle
With heels and a bag and Felipe el Hermoso around the waist
Desde que te pintas la boca
Since you paint your mouth
En vez de Don Juan te llamamos Juana la loca
Instead of Don Juan we call you Juana la loca
Después de toda una vida sublimando los instintos,
After a lifetime sublimating instincts,
Tomando gato por liebre; negando que eres distinto,
Taking a cat for a poke; denying that you are different,
Después de toda una vida poniendo diques al mar,
After a lifetime putting dykes to the sea,
Trabajador intachable, esposo y padre ejemplar,
Immaculate worker, exemplary husband and father,
Después de toda una vida sin poder sacar las plumas,
After a lifetime without being able to get the feathers out,
Soñando cuerpos desnudos entre sábanas de espuma
Dreaming of naked bodies between sheets of foam
De pronto un día
suddenly one day
Pasaste de pensar que pensarían
You went from thinking that they would think
Si lo supieran
if they knew
Tu mujer, tus hijos, tu portera
Your wife, your children, your concierge
Que en el cine Carretas
What in the cinema Carretas
Una mano de hombre cada noche busca en tu bragueta
A man's hand searches your fly every night
Desde que te pintas la boca
Since you paint your mouth
En vez de Don Juan te llamamos Juana la loca
Instead of Don Juan we call you Juana la loca
