El Jorobadito

The Hunchback

El Jorobadito

The day I was bornEl día que nací
they tried to sacrifice me,me quisieron sacrificar,
they tried to drown me in a bucketme quisieron ahogar en un balde
but I managed to escape.pero pude zafar.
Running through the streetsCorriendo por las calles
I got tangled in my umbilical cord.me enredaba en mi cordón umbilical.
Living with the dogs,Viviendo con los perros,
eating in the trash of a bar.comiendo en la basura de un bar.
They told me:Me dijeron:
dance and dance without stopping,baila y baila sin parar,
your life is a sad story.tu vida es una historia triste.
Dance and dance without stopping,Baila y baila sin parar,
you have to laugh.te tenés que reir.
I dance and dance without stopping,Yo bailo y bailo sin parar,
my life is a sad story.mi vida es una historia triste.
Dance and dance without stopping,Bailo y bailo sin parar,
I have to laugh.me tengo que reir.
I never had a girlfriendNunca tuve novia
and I never will.y nunca la voy a tener.
Nobody wants a hunchback,Nadie quiere a un jorobadito,
nobody can love him.nadie lo puede querer.
The women would fleeHuían las mujeres
when I tried to touch them,cuando yo las traté de tocar,
they denied me affection,me negaron el cariño,
they pushed me into the pleasure of being cruel.me empujaron al placer de ser cruel.
They told me:Me dijeron:
dance and dance without stopping,baila y baila sin parar,
your life is a sad story.tu vida es una historia triste.
Dance and dance without stopping,Baila y baila sin parar,
you have to laugh.te tenés que reir.
I dance and dance without stopping,Yo bailo y bailo sin parar,
my life is a sad story.mi vida es una historia triste.
Dance and dance without stopping,Bailo y bailo sin parar,
I have to laugh.me tengo que reir.
