Fugitivos En Hamelín

I'm gonna tell you my storyTe voy a contar mi cuento
'cause I'm the mouseporque yo soy el ratón
who survived the Titanicque se salvó del Titanic
on a ham board.en la tabla del jamón.
With a lot of imaginationCon mucha imaginación
and the bone I had left,y el hueso que me quedaba,
in one go I made a stewdel tirón puse un puchero
based on saltwater.a base de agua salada.

I went with the windMe puse a favor del viento
that took me to Cádiz,que me llevaba pa Cái,
to kill boredompa matá el aburrimiento
I was reading the New York Times.fui leyendo el Niu Yor Taim.
Talking about Wall Street going down,Que si baja Gual Estrí,
social chronicles,que si crónica social,
the conceited little mousela ratita presumida
won't get married.no se acaba de casar.

I'm neither a saint nor a devil,Ni santo, ni diablo soy,
nor rich nor a beggar,ni rico, ni pordiosero,
why would I need a jobpa' qué quiero yo un trabajo
being the king of my hole.siendo el rey de mi agujero.
And I'm not interested in cheese at all,Y no me interesa el queso ná',
if it's not given for free.si no viene regala'o.
Don't be scared, that's howNo se asuste, que así somos
us red mice are.los ratones coloraos.

Fugitive in Hamelin,Fugitivo en Hamelín,
I saved myself by sheer luck,yo me salvé por la jeta,
I never liked the flutenunca me gustó el flautín
and even less the tambourine.y menos la pandereta.
I was a library mouseFui ratón de biblioteca
but I preferred hungerpero preferí la hambruna
because in the next classporque en la clase de al lado
they always rehearsed the tuna band.siempre ensayaba la tuna.

Word of a rodent,Palabra de roedor,
I've seen it, it's not a lie,yo lo he visto, no es un bulo,
the computer mouseal ratón de ordenador
has a cable through its bodyle entra un cable por el cuerpo
that if it doesn't blind it,que si no lo deja tuerto,
it connects to memory.se conecta a la memoria.
I don't know the whole storyYo no sé cómo es la historia
but me, a mouse like that, not even dead.pero yo, ratón así, ni muerto.

God save me from poisonDios me salve del veneno
and laboratories,y de los laboratorios,
don't waste your moneyque no tiren su dinero
on a funeral for me.en pagarme un velatorio.
I don't care about TV,Yo paso del teleflín,
I don't care about Warner Brothers,paso de la Güarner Broder,
about messing with Tom the cat,de joder al gato Yim,
damn rodents.de marditos roedores.

To the annoying MartinAl jartible de Martín
and silly Susanitay la boba Susanita
we, the most streetwise mice,le formamos un motín
we formed a riot.los ratones más gaditas.
And in Cádiz there's no Tooth FairyY en Cádiz no hay ratón Pérez
because he ended up broke:porque acabó en la ruina:
there are little mice and pleasureshay ratitas y placeres
around the corner.a la vuelta de la esquina.
