Era el pez con mejores caderas
It was the fish with the best hips
Del mar de la moda,
From the sea of fashion,
Se dejaba achuchar por cualquiera
He allowed himself to be cuddled by anyone
(Incluyéndome a mí),
(including me),
Sus palabras decían de memoria
His words said by heart
Lo que dicen todas,
What they all say
Sus pupilas contaban historias
His pupils told stories
Para no dormir
not to sleep
Yo era el último mono, un innoble
I was the last monkey, an ignoble
Mirón solitario,
lonely peeper,
En las bodas algún pasodoble,
At weddings some pasodoble,
De suelto ni hablar
loose no talk
El perfume tabú de Chanel
Chanel's taboo perfume
Y el cubata de Larios
And the cubata from Larios
No acostumbran buscarse un motel
They don't usually look for a motel
Cuando cierran el bar
when they close the bar
Porque siempre hubo clases y yo
Because there were always classes and I
Soy el hombre invisible
I am the invisible man
Que una noche soñó un imposible
That one night he dreamed an impossible
Parecido al amor
similar to love
Porque el mundo es injusto, chaval,
Because the world is unfair, boy,
Pero si me provocan
But if they provoke me
Yo también sé jugarme la boca,
I also know how to play my mouth,
Yo también sé besar
I also know how to kiss
Compartimos la misma toalla,
We share the same towel
Distintos sudores,
various sweats,
Todavía quedan islas con playas
There are still islands with beaches
Color azafrán
saffron color
Fui su medio limón, su chéri,
I was his half lemon, his chéri,
Su peor latin lover,
His worst latin lover,
Su lección de español, su desliz,
His Spanish lesson, her slip,
Su comme ci, su comme ça
Its comme ci, its comme ça
Pero un día retiraron las mesas
But one day they removed the tables
Y hasta otro verano
and until another summer
Las mejores promesas son esas
The best promises are those
Que no hay que cumplir
that you don't have to comply
Y 'viajeros al tren, que nos vamos',
And 'travellers to the train, we're leaving',
Me dijo un milano,
A kite told me
'Flaco, pórtate bien, au revoir,
'Skinny, behave yourself, au revoir,
Buena suerte en París'
Good luck in Paris'
Porque siempre hubo clases y yo
Because there were always classes and I
No doy bien de marido
I don't do well as a husband
Otra vez a perder un partido,
Losing a match again
Sin tocar el balón
without touching the ball
Porque el mundo es injusto, chaval,
Because the world is unfair, boy,
Pero si me provocan
But if they provoke me
Yo también sé jugarme la boca,
I also know how to play my mouth,
Qué te voy a contar
What am I going to tell you?
