Description
It smells like old car dust and freedom, which hasn't been breathed in for a long time. The world around me is slightly swaying - like after a long sleep, when you don't immediately remember who you are and where you're going. Everything seems tired, but honest: a song about those who shed the armour of ambition and remembered that simply living is already an achievement. There's a slightly hoarse smile in every word: a little sadness, a little tired humour, and a drop of hope that there's still light ahead. Even if the road is long, the gas is running low, and the dog in the back seat is looking philosophical. Everything passes, a voice from within says. And it's true - it passes, but beautifully.
Lyrics and translation
Original
Acaso queréis matarme tan joven
Mono tonto, perdí la llave
¿Cómo será vivir en el campo?
No tengo ambición, ya no soy nadie
No tengo ambición, ya no soy nadie
Nunca salté al agua de golpe
Hay alguien dentro gritando mi nombre
Llevas unos días bastante raros
Y me digo a mí mismo: "No es tan importante"
No es tan importante
Ha llegado el momento
Le he quitado el polvo a mi coche viejo
Coge al perro y dinero
El lugar al que vamos está muy lejos
Seguí tu consejo, abuelo
Cabeza alta por encima del resto, y me digo
Al final pasará tranquilo
Pasará de verdad
Sota, caballo y gallo
Quiero bañarme vestido, volver al barrio
Ver a mi madre hablar más despacio
Todo era posible, no era tan serio
Todo era posible, no era tan serio
Ha llegado el momento
Dime que sigo siendo bueno
Que no hay un camino correcto
Que no estoy perdido, que sigo durmiendo
Que no estoy perdido, que sigo durmiendo
Ha llegado el momento
Le he quitado el polvo a mi coche viejo
Coge al perro y dinero
El lugar al que vamos está muy lejos
Seguí tu consejo, abuelo
Cabeza alta por encima del resto, y me digo
Al final pasará tranquilo
Pasará de verdad
No tengo nada, no quiero nada
¿De qué me sirve ser otra rata?
Mantén la calma, es una trampa
¿De qué te sirve vender tu alma?
¿De qué me sirve ser otra rata?
English translation
Do you want to kill me so young?
Silly monkey, I lost the key
What will it be like to live in the country?
I have no ambition, I am nobody anymore
I have no ambition, I am nobody anymore
I never jumped into the water all at once
There's someone inside screaming my name
You've been having some pretty strange days.
And I say to myself: "It's not that important"
It's not that important
The time has come
I have dusted off my old car
Get the dog and money
The place we are going is very far away
I followed your advice, grandpa.
Head high above the rest, and I tell myself
In the end it will pass peacefully
It will really happen
Jack, horse and rooster
I want to bathe dressed, go back to the neighborhood
See my mother speak more slowly
Everything was possible, it wasn't that serious
Everything was possible, it wasn't that serious
The time has come
Tell me I'm still good
that there is no right way
That I'm not lost, that I'm still sleeping
That I'm not lost, that I'm still sleeping
The time has come
I have dusted off my old car
Get the dog and money
The place we are going is very far away
I followed your advice, grandpa.
Head high above the rest, and I tell myself
In the end it will pass peacefully
It will really happen
I have nothing, I don't want anything
What good is it to me to be another rat?
Keep calm, it's a trap
What good does it do you to sell your soul?
What good is it to me to be another rat?
