Winks

Guiños

In this society todayEn esta sociedad de hoy
there's the people, there's the kingesta el pueblo, esta el rey
there's the fool from the newsesta el gil de las noticias
or lies in bulko mentiras a granel.
There's the fool, there's the wiseEsta el tonto, esta el sabio
but behind comes the hitmanmas atrás viene el sicario
with his weapon and his dogcon su arma y con su perro
sniffing around in your bagsolfatear sobre en tus bolsos
and even if they never find anythingy aunque nunca encuentren nada
they'll say you bought scandaldirán que compraste morbo
hidden among your desiresescondido entre tus ansias

You like me don't understand anythingVos como yo no entendes nada
and you don't know their slangy no conoces su jerga
of fake smiles,de las sonrisas falsas,
to stretch out your tonguepara estirarte la lengua
what you say is already writtenlo que digas ya esta escrito
they signed it beforehandlo firmaron de antemano
they'll muzzle the dogle pondrán bozal al perro
and let the master eaty dejaran comer al amo

The Mr. Bribe is lostSe perdió el señor soborno
and everyone is looking for himy todos lo están buscando
over at the courtsallá por los tribunales
there are winks, everywherehay guiños, por todos lados
and the statue at the entrancey la estatua de la entrada
has its eyes coveredtiene los ojos tapados
because it got tired of seeingporque se cansó de ver
who todayquienes hoy
is violating itla están violando
