Cruz diablo

Zippo, which was in crumbs,Zippo, que estaba hecho migas,
he was sent on a divese mandó en una picada
hissing at his bad luckchistando a su mala sombra
without a co-pilot or anything.sin copiloto ni nada.
Zippo is on his way to hellZippo va camino del infierno
dashing off:cagando leches:
he didn't know how to distribute his chipsno supo repartir sus fichas
and his sky darkens.y su cielo ennegrece.
He was never a smart man of pesos,Nunca fue un listo de pesos,
always a smart man of cents.siempre un listo de centavos.
His mouth burns with cursesSu boca arde en maldiciones
that are swallowed badly.que se tragan mal.
He goes shouting: Devil's Cross!Se va gritando: Cruz Diablo!
out of pure courtesy.por pura cortesía.
The Anthem of Tangopolis tells himEl Himno de Tangópolis le dice
(Like in his ear...)(Como al oído...)
that his adventures stick badlyque sus aventuras pegan mal
and announce little.y anuncian poco.
The guy matured earlyEl tipo maduró pronto
and rotted very soon,y se pudrió bien temprano,
a mud that suffocates that eelun barro que asfixia esa anguila
is the savagery.es la salvajada.
If the dog is tameSi el perro es manso
he eats the garbage and says nothing;come la bazofia y no dice nada;
they count his ribs with a stick,le cuentan las costillas con un palo,
laughing out loud.a carcajadas.
Too many bruises,Demasiados los moretones,
very few enchantments.muy pocos encantamientos.
There are so many cooksSon tantos los cocineros
that spoil the soup.que joden la sopa.
His rock and roll bleeds ears,Su rocanrol sangra oídos,
since God tricked him with the ticket.ya que Dios le truchó el boleto.
Zippo, a laugh of a thousand teethZippo, una risa de mil dientes
loaded with sulfur.cargados de azufre.
