A Veces Yo Me Pregunto

It's good to be a smuggler who brings from outside here

The bad thing is the justice that sends it back there

Don't worry, compatriot, things are in order

They are so well organized that it's hard for them to have leftovers

What's left and what's missing is a matter of conscience
What's left and what's missing is a matter of conscience
The blame is not on the pig but on the one who feeds it

Jesus conducts the orchestra
The devil conducts the choir
Man pays the expenses
My shoes match your jacket
And your feet match my head
What a modest example
The monkey drinks beer

Teresa is in prison because she stole a milanesa
How little delicacy
A corpse on the table
It seems to be a lamb
What intrigues is the hat
And the briefcase

And the receipt for a bedroom
Elena in the sanatorium waits happily
That maybe, like Mary, she has a prophet
A camel on a scooter through the paved desert
A lawyer drowned by the dry law

Satan in a T-shirt puts flowers on Don Pascual
Who died with dignity and a little shame
Because the granddaughter had a poet
I allow you everything except disrespecting my mother
Edipto

I've only been to the psychoanalyst seven times
Snow White
The devil knows because he's the devil, but he knows more because of Freud
To live with dignity, you have to save yourself from gold
Said Don Tristan's parrot
Does anyone remember Vietnam and I miss you
I love you, there's a lip, an ear, a nose

Damn morality, it's a matter of geography
Damn morality, it's a matter of geography
What's normal in France is very wrong in China
What's normal in France is very wrong in China

Lady Independence has a blonde lover
Lady Independence has a blonde lover

Blame her love affairs, the flood will soon return
Blame her love affairs, the flood will soon return

With rags and something else, I made a buttonhole
And I exchanged it for my time
And I got a tremendous buttonhole
But one day, chasing after that, my poor desire
I fell in and went to hell
And I met Bregel who was painting the cage

That will occupy the market
And I met Freud who of course was with his mom
And I met St. Peter
Who had been expelled from paradise
For committing the most tremendous sin
Being a doorman

Freedom is an old woman I met in the bohemia
Freedom is an old woman I met in the bohemia
Next to many people without anyone seeing her

She told me she has three children, one is crucified

The other went crazy and the third never arrived

One plus one is two, that's how this matter began
Man is God when he dreams, but a slave when he counts
One plus one is two, that's how this matter began

A minute of silence
A second of carelessness
A child
Two beautiful loves
Three big businesses
Four whiskeys
An accident
A cure

Two nurses
Three doctors
Four cardinal points
Five rooms
Six sisters
Seven deadly sins
Eight hours a day

Twenty years of good and loyal service
Two retirees
Three televisions
Two secretaries
Yes sir, no sir, yes sir

A status
Ten executives
Twenty percent
Ten deadlines
Five drops before each meal

A nervous breakdown
Two arguments
Four witnesses
Thirty days of arrest
A regret
An event

A church
A girl
Two rings
Three children
Four credits
Five seizures
Six shots

One plus one is two, that's how this matter began
Man is God when he dreams, but a slave when he counts
Let the sheets die
The girls in the street, it's spring
Money doesn't matter, long live nature
Eat grass
Millions of cows can't be wrong

Yesterday I dreamed that life was beauty and pleasure
Yesterday I dreamed that life was beauty and pleasure
I was woken up by a hungry child and I understood it's a duty
I was woken up by a hungry child and I understood it's a duty

Also
The child cries from hunger and I don't know what to think
The child cries from hunger and I don't know what to think
His crying takes things beyond good and evil
His crying takes things beyond good and evil

An employee under a desk
A leader under a board
A supermarket under the waters
An atomic sage under a petticoat
A firefighter extinguishing an idea
An idea igniting a worker

A revolution for a bread
A baker drinking champagne
A politician with only one ear
A flock with only one sheep
A critic with only one eye
And a lame flag bearer

A community upside down
And a calamity belly up
A stupid says stupid things
And a manager says managerial things
A democrat censoring
And a socialist multiplying

A mood
A marital status
A state of siege
A sports stadium
A depressive study

A possessive
A delirious
A stimulant
A sedative
A new day

Sometimes I wonder what decency is for

If it's to fatten the neighbor or to endure misery

If the one who adds and multiplies is the one who lives off me

Sometimes I wonder who is the bigger thief, brother
Sometimes I wonder who is the bigger thief, brother
If those who rob a bank or those who founded it
If those who rob a bank or those who founded it

Sometimes I wonder why I wonder so much
Sometimes I wonder why I wonder so much
Whether I asked or didn't ask, the world keeps going
Whether I asked or didn't ask, the world keeps going
And therefore changing
