Sobrino del dolor

Tuviste por escuela una prisión

Por maestra una mesa de billar

Te lo montas de guapo y de matón

De golfo y de ladrón

Y de darle al canuto cantidad

Aún no tienes años pa votar

Y ya pasas del rollo de vivir
And you already go from the roll of living
Chorizo y delincuente habitual

Contra la propiedad

De los que no te dejan elegir

Si al fondo del oscuro callejón
If at the end of the dark alley
Un Bugatti te come la moral

A punta de navaja y empujón
At the point of a knife and a push
El coche vacilón
the wavering car
Va cambiando de dueño y de lugar

Que no se mueva nadie has ordenao

Y van ya quince atracos en un mes

Tu vieja apura el vino que has mercao

Y nunca ha preguntao

¿De dónde sale todo este parné?

Hay bronca por donde quiera que vas
There's anger everywhere you go
Las chavalas del barrio sueñan con

Robarte el corazón

Si el sábado las llevas a bailar

Una noche que andabas desarmao
One night you were unarmed
La muerte en una esquina te esperó
Death in a corner waited for you
Te pegaron seis tiros descaraos
They hit you six cheeky shots
Y luego desangrao
And then I bleed
Te ingresaron en el piramidón

Pero antes de palmarla se te oyó
But before hitting it, you were heard
Decir: 'Que demasiao
Say: 'That too much
De esta me sacan en televisión'
They take me out of this on television'
