We behave like clouds
Which are dispersed by the wind
When there are hurricanes
When there is heartache
We behave like prisoners
And we think like prisoners
We think about fleeing from one another
And about jailbreak
(Chorus:)
Let's go for a ride around heaven
So we can see what eternal means
Let's go for a ride around around heaven
So we can see what eternal means
You probably think that I'm a dog
That I have snot for brains
That I am all talk and no walk, 1 and that
I am one ungrateful man
I have claws, and I have teeth
And I defend what is mine
Oh, my love, do not tempt me anymore
Because once I do bite, I don't let go
(Chorus)
What eternal means
If you tempt me
Let's go for a ride around heaven
So we can see what eternal means
And later one you'll come around looking for me
(Chorus)
1. this is from the proverb «perro que ladra no muerde» = the dog that barks does not bite; when applied to people, it refers to people who make empty threats and other such behavior. If I translated it more literally, it'd be translated as "That I bark, but do not bite."
