Un Tipo Diferente

A Different Kind of Guy

Un Tipo Diferente

I've sewn my heels to my shadowHe cosido mis talones a mi sombra
So they can endure the whole way with mePa' que aguanten junto a mi todo el camino
To leave behind all that confuses mePa dejar atras to lo que me atolondra
I go singing traveler there is no pathVoy cantando caminante no hay camino
If I've never taken the bull by the hornsSi nunca he cogido el toro por los cuernos
It's because I haven't reached the pedals yetEs porque to' via no llego a los pedales
And fame has sewn me a maskY la fama me ha cosido una careta
That I can only take off during carnivalsQue solo puedo quitarme en carnavales

And wanting to be a different kind of guyY queriendo ser un tipo diferente
I always run away from any comparisonHuyo siempre de culaquier comparativo
I don't like paying much attention to peopleNo me gusta hacer mucho caso a la gente
I've always learned more from experienceYo siempre he aprendido mas de lo vivido
And life has taught me over these yearsY la vida me ha enseñado en estos años
Through dealing with so many peopleA fuerza de tratar con tantas personas
Nobility and affection are in the neighborhoodsLa nobleza y el cariño esta en los barrios
And with money even crap looks goodY con plata hasta una mierda es resultona

And even though I don't find it funnyY aunque a mi no me haga gracia
My record doesn't get coldMi disco no pasa frio
Snuggled between blankets between Paulina and El DivoAcurrucao entre mantas entre Paulina y El Divo
And if the people rise up I'll lay down with youY si el pueblo se levanta yo me acuesto contigo
But today our hopePero hoy nuestra esperanza
Is nothing more than a whore in retirementNo es mas que una puta que esta en el retiro

I've trampled on my principlesMe he pasao a mi principios por la piedra
I've painted on toilet lidsHe pintao en las tapas de los retretes
Forgot to put a message in the bottleOlvide poner mensaje en la botella
I'm a sad blank page without a letterheadSoy un triste folio en blanco sin membrete
The guitar strings break on meSe me rompen la cuerdas de la guitarra
When I see the world upside downCuando veo el mundo esta patas arriba
And if you try to put your hand in its skirtY si intentas meter la mano en su falda
Those in charge will bite you backLos que mandan te la devulven mordida

And wanting to be a different kind of guyY queriendo ser un tipo diferente
I always run away from any comparisonHuyo siempre de culaquier comparativo
I don't like paying much attention to peopleNo me gusta hacer mucho caso a la gente
I've always learned more from experienceYo siempre he aprendido mas de lo vivido
And life has taught me over these yearsY la vida me ha enseñado en estos años
Through dealing with so many peopleA fuerza de tratar con tantas personas
Nobility and affection are in the neighborhoodsLa nobleza y el cariño esta en los barrios
And with money even crap looks goodY con plata hasta una mierda es resultona

And even though I don't find it funnyY aunque a mi no me haga gracia
My record doesn't get coldMi disco no pasa frio
Snuggled between blankets between Paulina and El DivoAcurrucao entre mantas entre Paulina y El Divo
And if the people rise up I'll lay down with youY si el pueblo se levanta yo me acuesto contigo
But today our hopePero hoy nuestra esperanza
Is nothing more than a whore in retirementNo es mas que una puta que esta en el retiro

And even though I don't find it funnyY aunque a mi no me haga gracia
My record doesn't get coldMi disco no pasa frio
