As de Cartón

Julio Sosa Julio Sosa

Cardboard Ace

Telling his exploits in a bowling alley
A handsome man who became a poster boy in a group
I was tricking fools to suck their eyes
With famous feats that were not his
Knower of phrases and manners
From the lousy slang of the suburbs
He told them about phenomenal fights
Where he always played a leading role

But one night a veteran fell
When he wrote the serial stories
And he ripped off the mask of the false handsome man
Leaving him as a scoundrel
You prepared mate at a gambling den
That Don Meliton had in the cave
And you were a pimp to the pimps
And you come to act like a big bully now

They called you the goose, because you were an idiot
You had well earned your credential
And your best joke was that criminal record
For thief of chickens in a farmyard
And to top it all off, luck fell on the bowling alley
The woman with the aforementioned cardboard ace
And saying to her: Beast, go inside
Sweep my room well! Take care of the scumbag

(Spoken)
And he who told of his exploits among the unfortunate
Of close fights that he dominated
Muttering under his breath, he grumbles
There are no more handsome ones, Leopoldo!
It's all over!
