El Porque

The Reason

El Porque

Blessed be the one who made the reasonBendito el que hizo el porqué
For apologies of the evilsPa disculpas de los males
If you want to know itSi te lo querés saber
Ask and then tell mePreguntá y después contame

Because I am rightPorque tengo razón
That I am wrongQue no tengo razón
That I have a missing buttonholeQue me falla un ojal
That I have an extra buttonQue me sobra un botón
Because yes, because I amPorque sí, porque estoy
Because no, I am leavingPorque no, que me voy
Because I am, because I givePorque soy, porque doy
Because I wasPorque fui

Ask the unfortunate onePregúntale al disgraciao'
The reason for his misfortunesEl motivo de sus males
The reason will come outEl porqué le va a salir
Like a pig in the cornfieldsComo chancho 'e los maizales

Go and tell the bossAnda y decile al patrón
Why he doesn't give you a raisePorque no te da el aumento
Damn it! If he has studied it¡La pucha! Si lo ha estudiao
He might even let you go happilyQue hasta te larga contento

Ask the womanPregúntale a la mujer
When she loves the man moreCuando quiere más al hombre
If she can answer youSi te logra responder
There will be nothing to surprise youNo habrá nada que te asombre

It's time for you to thinkEs hora que andés pensando
About the reason for your existenceEl porqué de tu existir
Don't let the balladNo sea cosa que la copla
Repeat itself to youSe te vuelva a repetir

That I'm leaving, that I'm leavingQue me voy, que me voy
That I'm leaving, that I'm leavingQue me voy, que me voy
