Al Maestro Con Cariño

One of these days, my lifeUn día de estos vida mia
I will follow your exampleVoy a seguirte el ejemplo
I will come home with the scentVoy a llegar a la casa con aroma
Of another bedDe otra cama
With incense from another templeCon incienso de otro templo
And if by chance I arrive lateY si a caso llego tarde
I will tell you what you tell meTe dire lo que me dices
That there was a meeting at the officeQue hubo junta en la oficina
That the crisis in ArgentinaQue la crisis de Argentina
Caused an urgent sessionProvoco sesion urgente

And I might even give youY hasta puede que te de
That unwanted kissEse beso no deseado
Like Judas, I will tryComo Judas tratare
To hide my sin from youDe ocultarte mi pecado
As you have taught meComo tu me has enseñado
As one teaches a childComo se le enseña a un niño
Your gift I will give youTu regalo te dare
To the teacher with loveAl maestro con cariño

I will entrust you with the dogsVoy a encargarte los perros
While I go out one nightMientras yo salgo una noche
And you stay calmY te quedas tranquilito
Without causing any dramaSin hacerme ningun drama
Without making any reproachSin hacer ningun reproche
And don't forget to put onY no dejes de ponerte
Your jacaranda lotionTu locion de jacarandas
Just in case it occurs to mePor si acaso se me ocurre
What always occurs to youLo que siempre se te ocurre
After your revelriesYa despues de tus parrandas

And I might even give youY hasta puede que te de
That unwanted kissEse beso no deseado
Like Judas, I will tryComo Judas tratare
To hide my sin from youDe ocultarte mi pecado
As you have taught meComo tu me has enseñado
As one teaches a childComo se le enseña a un niño
Your gift I will give youTu regalo te dare
To the teacher with loveAl maestro con cariño
