El Ratón

The Mouse

El Ratón

They call him the mouse because he steals the cheeseLe dicen el raton porque se roba el queso
from those lying blue princes,de aquellos principes azules mentirosos,
who steal kisses without knowing what a kiss isque roban besos sin saber lo que es un beso
who show off their back and that's why they think they're cool.que muestran lomo y por eso creen ser grosos.

They call him the mouse because he makes a holeLe dicen el raton porque le hace un agujero
in any girl's heart,en la cueva del corazon a cualquier mina,
and to the partygoers who claim to be partygoersy a los fiesteros que se dicen ser fiesteros
he shows that the night never ends.les muestra que la noche nunca se termina.

He appears when the city falls asleepEl aparece cuando la ciudad se duerme
when people wake up, he's still there,cuando la gente se levanta el sigue ahi,
among beer and various vices, he gets lostentre cerveza y vicios varios el se pierde
he wanders overnight when the bricklayer sleeps... when the bricklayer sleeps.anda en pernocte cuando duerme... cuando duerme el albañil.

They call him the mouse because he rummages through the trashLe dicen el raton porque hurga en la basura
to see if he finds an extra peso for a cold one,a ver si encuentra un peso mas para una fresca,
he keeps going with the beer and doesn't crackdale que dale con la birra y no fisura
he endures the stitch until dawn breaks.se banca la puntada hasta que amanezca.

He's the mouse because he's faster than the windEs el raton porque es mas rapido que el viento
when he's chased by the cats,cuando se encuentra perseguido por los gatos,
he spins constantly, he doesn't know the lessongira constante, no conoce el escarmiento
of the partygoers, he's already formed a union.de los fiesteros, el ya hizo un sindicato.

And with the money he earns, he goes all outY con la guita que se gana va al reviente
he never in his life made it to work on time,nunca en su vida llego al laburo puntual,
when the responsible one cries for what he losescuando el responsable llora por lo que pierde
he enjoys anticipating what's to come.el goza disfrutando por lo que vendra.

He appears when the city falls asleepEl aparece cuando la ciudad se duerme
when people wake up, he's still there,cuando la gente se levanta el sigue ahi,
among beer and various vices, he gets lostentre cerveza y vicios varios el se pierde
he wanders overnight when the bricklayer sleeps... when the bricklayer sleeps.anda en pernocte cuando duerme... cuando duerme el albañil.
