Tranquilo, Viejo, Tranquilo
Tita Merello
Calm Down, Old Man, Calm Down
Everyone shoots it
It's run over and doesn't repair
That it's making a mess
Everyone shouts, accelerates
And it seems like they have
Reflections in the mate
It's a century of aspirins
Overwork and crazies
And those who aren't crazy
It seems they're close
If you have many problems
And seek the solution
Don't worry, go to Vieytes
Because in Vieytes they give reason
Calm down and don't get worked up
Because it's dangerous to despair
Life is short
And when passing it to linden tea
Worried and with a straw
It seems atrocious
Calm down, old man, calm down
And in the end, you first
Don't rush, Timoteo
If you get fired from your job
And they leave you wandering
And if your wife bellows
Or your mother-in-law fights you
Just take a good sedative
If life is very expensive
Or they're suffocating you
Don't stray from the path
Even if they come skating
Suppress the outbursts
And get closer to reason
Calm down and remember
That you have a heart
Calm down and don't get worked up
Because it's dangerous to despair
Life is short
And when passing it to linden tea
Worried and with a straw, hey
It seems atrocious
Calm down, old man, calm down
And in the end, you first
