El Abrigo
Tommy Torres
The Coat
Ooo, daddy
Life here in the tropics ain't easy
The sun's shining hotter than usual
These days, spirits are
The ones up top
Can't stay afloat without the ones below
And the ones below waste time watching
How the ones up top stumble
Don't get me wrong
My venting isn't complaining
I know you had it worse in your days
(But)
Today I just want to be surrounded by friends (uuh)
And suffer from amnesia until morning (uuh)
No serious topics
Anyone who gets complicated
We push them aside
And you, my baby, tell me, are you coming with me?
Bring your coat
Oooo, daddy
I survive from paycheck to paycheck
The check comes in as soon as it goes out
And what's left over... It's a shame
The diploma you proudly hung on the wall
Has only served me to clean tables at restaurants
Don't stop. The ship didn't bring more
We only have to enjoy the moment
Even if the future is uncertain
Today I just want to be surrounded by friends (uuh)
And suffer from amnesia until morning (uuh)
No heartbreak. Let's play some good rock from the Argentine
I find it divine
And you, my baby, tell me, are you coming with me?
Then bring your coat
And this is the part of the song, the bridge
Where we usually write something big, intelligent
Something that sounds like a great truth, a great moral
But if you allow me today, I prefer my friend Juan Esteban
To play a guitar solo
Today I just want to be surrounded by friends (uuh)
And talk shit until dawn (uuh)
No heartbreak
Let's play some early Beatles
The ones with short hair
And you, my baby, tell me, are you coming with me?
Then bring your coat. Bring your coat
Today I just want to be surrounded by friends
(And a friend can come too, right? Without fear)
Today I just want to be surrounded by friends
(The pirate life is better)
Today I just want to be surrounded by friends
