Tengo trabajo y me da lata
I have a job and I can
No es mala plata pero no basta para motivarme
It's not bad money but it's not enough to motivate me
No convencerme, que acaso no sea mejor idea
Not convincing, maybe it's not a better idea
Sacar el puzzle, tirar escupo por la ventana
Take out the puzzle, throw spit out the window
Hojear el diario
Flip through the diary
Y contemplar esa pila de papeles en blanco
And contemplate that stack of blank papers
Tengo trabajo otros no tienen
I have work others do not have
Si por trabajo tuviera acceso
If you had access for work
A recortar oscuros presupuestos
Cutting dark budgets
O aceitar suavemente la mano que me Acaricia
Or gently oil the hand that caresses me
Pues nada de eso, no creo, nada
Well, none of that, I don't think, nothing
Me haria laborar con ganas
I would work with desire
O siquiera sonreír al espejo
Or even smile in the mirror
Cuando me afeito cada mañana
When I shave every morning
Presto y dispuesto
Ready and willing
A mis nueve horas diarias
At nine hours a day
De sacar la vuelta heavy
To take the heavy turn
El trabajo dignifica al hombre/. Di lo que quieras
Work dignifies man/. Say what you want
Usa tu energia en algo util/... No te discuto
Use your energy in something useful/... I don't argue with you
Gánate la vida con sudor
Make a living with sweat
(Como la canción)
(Like the song)
Gánate la vida con el sudor de tu frente
Make a living with the sweat of your brow
El trabajo dignifica
Work dignifies
Pero nno entiendo bien…
But I don't understand well..
