Cheque al portamor [English translation]

I would politely give you an advice,

that you probably don't know yet,

The devil knows a lot more through old age,

than by being the king of all our bad things (old is wise)

Reality will make you fall flat on your face,

if you think that a euro is better than a good gesture,

because a window that gives light to the patio,

can shine more than one that over looks the street.

And now leave to search for that wallet,

that sustains your beauty treatments, while you have it,

bacause you will find out that it doesn't last eternally, my friend.

so go searching for every delusion of grandeur,

and if life teaches you a lesson and your prize horse throws you off a cliff,

remember that you turned down being the flower for my life,

for being just a petal in that guy's.

How you hurt me little spoiled girl,

with your fake expired lover's cheque (portamor a play on portador)

Although, thinking about it carefully,

What would have been our future?

You that prefers a peso (money) to a kiss

and I don't even have a fucking dime.

You that only eats leaves,

and me, I only eat red meat.

I live in a made up story,

while you in a movie by Almodovar.

You that boasts of atheism,

while I live through the breeze

that a God put in my throat.

And now leave to search for that wallet,

that sustains your beauty treatments, while you have it,

bacause you will find out that it doesn't last eternally, my friend.

so go searching for every delusion of grandeur,

and if life teaches you a lesson and your prize horse throws you off a cliff,

remember that you turned down being the flower for my life,

for being just a petal in that guy's.

How you hurt me little spoiled girl,

with your fake expired lover's cheque (portamor a play on portador)

I only hope that this doesn't sound like a reproach

but when you have no celing left to reach

you will feel empty and will be like a jug of cold water

when you look back.
