Quisiera ser como el perro
Ángel Parra
I wish I were like the dog
(reciting)
- I'm really enjoying this.
- I'm going to try (...) Are you going to leave or come to dance a cueca?
Did you notice the little doggie over there?
- I, you see, I'm going to bark again, listen... bark, bark, bark...
(singing)
I wish I were like the dog
to lift my leg,
to walk carelessly
and without getting my belly wet.
I wish I were like the dog.
Tied to the tail
with joy
in front of a cop
who's standing still.
With joy, yes,
I went to the wallet,
I'm going to lock up the rat
from the stairs.
The female dog with the male dog
go to the hill.
