Take A Long Line

Él vendía postales desde un puesto de periódicosHe was selling postcards from a paper stand
Una botella de whisky en su mano marchitaA whiskey bottle in his withered hand
Puso su dedo en una foto de una vieja revistaHe put his finger on a photo from an old magazine
Se vio a sí mismo en la sombra de su sueñoHe saw himself in the shadow of his dream
Lo encontraron con la cabeza dentro de una corona de lataThey found him with his head inside a tin-pot crown
Le dijeron que sus pies olían mal y lo llevaron al centroTold him his feet stank and took him downtown
Lo llamaron agitador, espía y ladrónCalled him agitator, spy and thief
Lo encerraron en la tercera dimensiónShut him up in solitary third degree

Toma una larga filaTake a long line
Toma una larga filaTake a long line
Toma una larga fila, recógeloTake a long line, reel him in

Intentó apelar al rey del poderHe tried to appeal to the king of might
