Homero

When he leaves work, Homer comes thinkingCuando sale del trabajo, Homero viene pensando
When you get off the bus, you will avoid some carsQue al bajar del colectivo, esquivará unos autos
He will cross the avenue, he will enter the neighborhoodCruzará la avenida, se meterá en el barrio
He will pass by giving greetings and coins to some lazy peoplePasará dando saludos y monedas a unos vagos

And he turns down the first hallway and sees that he is comingY Dobla en el primer pasillo y ve que va llegando
And a narrow elevator takes you to the ranch doorY un ascensor angosto lo lleva a la puerta del rancho
He says he is very tired and on top of that they didn't pay todayDice estar muy cansado y encima hoy no pagaron
It's impossible to get off this routine and you wonder, until when?Imposible bajarse de esta rutina y se pregunta ¿hasta cuando?

It is difficult as a worker to take care of breadSe hace difícil siendo obrero hacerte cargo del pan
About your wife, your children, the rent and something elseDe tu esposa, tus hijos, del alquiler y algo más
And he hardly enjoys his days thinking about how he will do itY poco disfruta sus días pensando en cómo hará
If they don't pay you in that job and they ask for more and moreSi en ese empleo no pagan y cada vez le piden más

How unjust that efficiency and responsibility are not valuedQué injusticia que no se valore eficacia y responsabilidad
Because today he killed himself thinking and it's the same as anyone elsePorque él hoy se mató pensando y es lo mismo que uno más
Homer is tired, eats and wants to go to bedHomero está cansado, come y se quiere acostar
Dawn comes again and between newspaper and mates he asks himselfVuelve a amanecer y entre diario y mates se pregunta
How much more?¿Cuánto más?

Homer is tired, eats and wants to go to bedHomero está cansado, come y se quiere acostar
Dawn comes again and between newspaper and mates he asks himselfVuelve a amanecer y entre diario y mates se pregunta
How much more?¿Cuánto más?

And that's how it is, the life of a worker is like thatY es así, la vida de un obrero es así
Life in a neighborhood is like thisLa vida en un barrio es así
And there are few who will escapeY pocos son los que van a zafar
And that's how we learn to be happy like thisY es así, aprendemos ser felices así
The life of a worker is like thisLa vida del obrero es así
And there are few who will escapeY pocos son los que van a zafar
