El Apartamento
Y ando boca abajo
buscando tras el sofá la llave de paso
porque en el lavabo salen caracolillos
y canta el ganado.
Me quedan letras pendientes
pá empapelar seis salones
el suelo se me levanta
y el techo empieza a temblar
si ando por los pasillos
buscando un trozo de mar.
Vendo, cambio, ofrezco
y alquilo o traspaso mi apartamento
Vendo, cambio, arriendo
y alquilo o traspaso mi apartamento.
Vendo, cambio, ofrezco
y alquilo o traspaso mi apartamento
Vendo, cambio, arriendo
y alquilo o traspaso mi apartamento.
Estoy como loco
huyendo de la vecina que me come el coco
que cambie de hacienda
del chico de la farmacia y del de la tienda.
Y esto no tiene remedio
voy a marcharme a liar
por no tener fantasmas que me atormenten
voy a dejar la casa en que te quise una vez...
Vendo, cambio, ofrezco
y alquilo o traspaso mi apartamento
Vendo, cambio, arriendo
y alquilo o traspaso mi apartamento.
Vendo, cambio, ofrezco
y alquilo o traspaso mi apartamento
Vendo, cambio, arriendo
y alquilo o traspaso mi apartamento...
The Apartment
I'm lying face down
searching behind the couch for the shut-off valve
because snails are coming out of the sink
and the livestock is singing.
I have letters left to write
for wallpapering six rooms
the floor is coming up
and the ceiling's starting to shake
if I walk through the hallways
looking for a piece of the sea.
I’m selling, trading, offering
and renting or transferring my apartment
I’m selling, trading, leasing
and renting or transferring my apartment.
I’m selling, trading, offering
and renting or transferring my apartment
I’m selling, trading, leasing
and renting or transferring my apartment.
I’m going crazy
running from the neighbor who's driving me nuts
who's changing her tax bracket
from the guy at the pharmacy and the one at the store.
And this has no fix
I’m going to leave to get high
so I won’t have ghosts haunting me
I’m going to leave the house where I once loved you...
I’m selling, trading, offering
and renting or transferring my apartment
I’m selling, trading, leasing
and renting or transferring my apartment.
I’m selling, trading, offering
and renting or transferring my apartment
I’m selling, trading, leasing
and renting or transferring my apartment...
