Que Cosa Tan Triste

What sad things life has
Money is not enough even for food
With the situation we are living
More than one person is going crazy

I went from transvestite to look for a job
And they rejected me because I'm too ugly
I've been looking for work for three years
They send me up and down
I'll be willing to do any job
Taking care of piranhas, washing buildings

Killing mosquitoes, chasing rats
Or deactivating landmines
I sew buttons and change light bulbs
I take care of retirees and make masks

I throw cards, read the tobacco
Dye the hair, shave the armpits
If you want, I'll serve as a cat for the car
If you don't have a dog, I'll bark at night

I chase thieves and carry coffins
I bring reasons and send greetings
I look for a lost one, I'm jealous of the wife
And if you're bored, I'll find you a girl
I wash underwear, apply injections
I take care of the children and put on condoms

I arrange interviews, make up excuses
I stand in line for you, pay the fine
I forge signatures, change fingerprints
And I'm an expert at inflating bottles
I perform exorcisms, scare away demons
And I teach brides for marriage

I carry the baby, fix the bottle
I burp him, clean up the mess
I change diapers when it smells bad
After bathing him, I sunbathe him
When he's very sad, I calm his crying
And if you can't, I breastfeed him

I serve as a witness in any matter
If you don't have evidence, I'll find the deceased
I act as a clown, contortionist
Tiger tamer or juggler

I throw myself at a car, I jump on a train
I throw myself naked from the Empire State Building

I offer myself as a guinea pig for an experiment
I lock myself in a cage with a hungry lion
I jump tied from a plane
I fight with a shark

But despite everything, I have God
Strength and salvation
