Vamos al campo a descansar
Let's go to the countryside to relax
No tengo nada, nada, nada
I have nothing, nothing, nothing
Nada, nada que jalar
Nothing, nothing to pull
De vacaciones me quiero ir
I want to go on vacation
A ver las focas y el casino en la Feliz
To see the seals and the casino in Feliz
No me banco las hormigas
I can't stand the ants
Por favor pasame el Raid, ¡ay!
Please pass me the Raid, oh!
No tengo teca, no tengo grass
I have no stash, I have no grass
(Y la heladera no funciona porque la misma es a gas)
(And the fridge doesn't work because it's gas)
Comida, no hay más
Food, there’s none left
(Estoy en el medio de la selva esto no lo aguanto más)
I'm in the middle of the jungle, I can't take this anymore
No me banco las hormigas
I can't stand the ants
Yo me vuelvo a la ciudad
I'm heading back to the city
