El Muerto Vivo

Naino naino naino nonaNaino naino naino nona
Naino naino naino nonaNaino naino naino nona
Naino naino naino nonaNaino naino naino nona
Cool with cool, coolChévere cu chévere, chévere

My dad, the chocolate manA mi papa el chocolate
Got paid his salaryLe pagaron su salario
And without thinking twiceY sin pensarlo dos veces
He went out to waste itSalió para malgastarlo
A week of revelryUna semana de juerga
And he lost consciousnessY perdió el conocimiento
Since he didn't return homeComo no volvió a su casa
Everyone thought he was deadTodos le daban por muerto

And he wasn't dead, no, noY no estaba muerto, no, no
And he wasn't dead, no, noY no estaba muerto, no, no
And he wasn't dead, no, noY no estaba muerto, no, no
He was having drinks, leré leréleEstaba tomando cañas, leré leréle

And he wasn't dead, no, noY no estaba muerto, no, no
And he wasn't dead, no, noY no estaba muerto, no, no
And he wasn't dead, no, noY no estaba muerto, no, no
Cool with cool, coolChévere cu chévere, chévere

But after a few daysPero al cabo de unos días
Of being missingDe haber desaparecido
They found some dead bodiesEncontraron unos muertos
One very similar to himUn muerto muy parecido
They held a wake for himLe montaron un velorio
And prayed the novenaY le rezaron la novena
They forgave his debtsLe perdonaron sus deudas
And buried him with sorrowY lo enterraron con pena

And he wasn't dead, no, noY no estaba muerto, no, no
And he wasn't dead, no, noY no estaba muerto, no, no
And he wasn't dead, no, noY no estaba muerto, no, no
He was having drinks, leré leréleEstaba tomando cañas, leré leréle
And he wasn't dead, no, noY no estaba muerto, no, no
And he wasn't dead, no, noY no estaba muerto, no, no
And he wasn't dead, no, noY no estaba muerto, no, no
Cool with cool, coolChévere cu chévere, chévere

But one day he appearedPero un día se apareció
Full of life and joyLleno de vida y contento
Telling everyone (what!)Diciéndole a todo el mundo (que!)
They got the wrong dead manSe equivocaron de muerto
The commotion that ensuedEl lío que se formó
That's pure fictionEso sí que es puro cuento
His wife no longer loves himSu mujer ya no lo quiere
She doesn't want to sleep with the deadNo quiere dormir con muertos

He wasn't dead, he was partyingNo estaba muerto, estaba de parranda
He wasn't dead, he was partyingNo estaba muerto, estaba de parranda
My dad, the chocolate manA mi papa el chocolate
Got paid his salaryLe pagaron su salario
He wasn't dead, he was partyingNo estaba muerto, estaba de parranda
He wasn't dead, he was partyingNo estaba muerto, estaba de parranda

That his wife no longer loves himQue su mujer ya no lo quiere
Oh, she doesn't want to sleep with the deadAy no quiere dormir con muertos

And he wasn't dead, no, noY no estaba muerto, no, no
And he wasn't dead, no, noY no estaba muerto, no, no
And he wasn't dead, no, noY no estaba muerto, no, no
He was having drinks, leré leréleEstaba tomando cañas, leré leréle
And he wasn't dead, no, noY no estaba muerto, no, no
And he wasn't dead, no, noY no estaba muerto, no, no
And he wasn't dead, no, noY no estaba muerto, no, no
Cool with cool, coolChévere cu chévere, chévere

He wasn't dead, he was partyingNo estaba muerto, estaba de parranda
He wasn't dead, he was partyingNo estaba muerto, estaba de parranda
My dad, the chocolate manA mi papa el chocolate
Got paid his salaryLe pagaron su salario
He wasn't dead, he was partyingNo estaba muerto, estaba de parranda
That his wife no longer loves himQue su mujer ya no lo quiere
Oh, she doesn't want to sleep with the deadAy no quiere dormir con muertos
And he wasn't dead, no, noY no estaba muerto, no, no
And he wasn't dead, no, noY no estaba muerto, no, no
And he wasn't dead, no, noY no estaba muerto, no, no
