Telespañolito [version 1] [English translation]

I ignored logarithms and Cervantes

and came to Madrid to be a singer,

but since I sang with intention

they put three rhombus to my song1

That's why I no longer say "Death to government"

nor is my hobby to take winter palaces

I prefer bad over worse

as long as the change changes the TV

Telespaniard who watches TV, God keep you,

one of the two channels will freeze your heart

I'm sorry that the show I like the most

is the one called "Test card",

though some insist in assert

that "Closedown" is better.

Alfonso Guerra says there's no talent,

he might not made the test

of sitting and watch tv

on tuesday in the moment I sing

Stop taking us like retarded

stop touching our genitals

tell the things the way they are

let the imagination reach the top

From the control room they tell me to stop it

that this is not a good moment,

if I sell myself tomorrow you'll find me

doing playback in Prado del Rey
