Anti-Lullaby

Estamos rebotando y bailando mientras cantas tu canción de nanaWe are bouncing and dancing as you sing your lullaby,
Gritando «muévete» cuando dices «quédateShouting "move" when you say "stay".
La melodía de tu flauta es un rifle que disparasThe tune of your flute is a rifle you shoot.
Eso nos deja a todos ser valientesThat lays us all down to be brave.
Te aman, te odiamosThey love you we hate you.
Hicieron que te rompamos hoyThey made you we break you today.
RompiendoBreaking away.

Estamos pintando las paredesWe are painting the walls.
Haciendo chistes fuera de las leyesMaking jokes out of laws.
Escondiendo somníferos bajo nuestras lenguasHiding sleeping pills under our tongues.
Cierra la luz, cierra la puerta, los escupimos al sueloShut the light, close the door, we spit them to the floor.
Entonces estamos tarareando y rasgueando y golpeando la bateríaThen we are humming and strumming and a' banging on drums.
¿Qué sabías cuando dijiste que estábamos desperdiciando?What did you know when you said we are wasting away?
¿Cómo puedes decirlo?How could you say?

¿Cómo puedes decir que nos desperdiciamos, desperdiciamos?How could you say we just waste away, waste away?
La mesa grande no es lo suficientemente grandeBig table not big enough.
¿Cómo puedes decir que nos desperdiciamos, desperdiciamos?How could you say we just waste away, waste away?
Tarareando, rasgando y golpeando, golpeando la bateríaHumming and strumming and banging, a' banging on drums.
Sí, sí, sí, síYeah yeah yeah yeah.

No seremos arrullados en el sueño por tiWe will not be lulled into slumber by you.
No seremos arrullados para dormirWe will not be lulled into sleep.
Porque hemos probado este maravilloso lugarFor we've had a taste of this wondrous place,
Y son tesoros que pretendimos conservarAnd it's treasures we intended to keep.
No seremos adormecidos en el sueñoWe will not be lulled into slumber.
No seremos arrullados para dormirWe will not be lulled into sleep.
Porque hemos probado este maravilloso lugarFor we've had a taste of this wondrous place,
Y son tesoros que pretendimos conservarAnd it's treasures we intended to keep.

Así que ahora cuando dicen que nos desperdiciamos, desperdiciamosSo now when they say we just waste away, waste away.
Puedes decir «Oye, no es asíYou can say "Hey it's not so".
¿Por qué es entonces que estamos creciendo, y creciendo, y creciendoWhy is it then that we're growing, and growing, and growing,
y crecer y mostrarles todo lo que sabemos?and growing and showing them all what we know?
