This story that I'm telling you is like a shout
A desperate voice that shouts asking for help
Help because I can't see anything that satisfies 1 me on the way
Help because I see that there is a great lack of affection
I stop and ask myself why you don't live
Surrounded by more truth and looking for imbalance
That fills you with courage and takes you away from suicide
Not having to depend (on anyone/anything) to feel more loved
Using less brains and a bit more skin
Since we are what we are and if you don't want to see (it)
You're silly
If you don't like yourself, it's just that you're not alive
You're silly
But that's something that was born with you
And tomorrow when you wake up, jump out of bed
Fight your tomorrow, look at your face
You don't owe anything (to anyone)
You're silly
Go out on the street without the silliness
Pouring your heart out 2
Your heart out
It seems that it's in fashion to play the fool
Pretending to be the person that you'd always wanted
Why don't you like yourself even if it's only a little bit?
Why aren't you yourself and not something similar?
Using less brains and a bit more skin
Since we are what we are and if you don't want to see (it)
You're silly
If you don't like yourself, it's just that you're not alive
You're silly
But that's something that was born with you
And tomorrow when you wake up, jump out of bed
Fight your tomorrow, look at your face
You don't owe anything (to anyone)
You're silly
Going out on the street without the silliness
Pouring your heart out
Your heart out
Ehh
You're silly
And tomorrow when you wake up, jump out of bed
Fight your tomorrow, look at your face
You don't owe anything (to anyone)
You're silly
Going out on the street without the silliness
Pouring your heart out
Your heart out
You're silly!
THE VEVO VERSION ADDS:
They're looking for you, silly!
Silly billy, ey! ah
Hey:
Like my grandma said
'You have to be quick off the mark' 3
And on the planet there are so many (of us)...
Ay, how can there be so many?
From Madrid to Panama
From Mexico to Bogotá
In Venezuela, in Uruguay
In Buenos Aires and La Paz
I was explained to, I was told
And I saw it, I understood it
It's said differently
And it's the same as in my country:
Moron 4, jerk, arsehole, good-for-nothing, 5 coward, idiot, stupid 6
They're (all) of the same nature
And now I'm telling you (what's the word?)
How it's said in Spain
Silly!
1. lit. 'fills me' 2. lit. taking your whole life out (of yourself)3. This idiomatic expression doesn't have a direct translation as far as I'm aware...it basically means to make the most of an opportunity, lit. the slowest RUN for it, but the fastest FLY to it 4. 'turro' is apparently commonly used in Argentina and can also be translated as' motherfucker' 5. not entirely sure what 'carapán' should be translated to in English...it literally means 'bread face', I assume this is some sort of insult...6. I can't find a translation for 'bobaca' so I just went for stupid...
