Yo no sé lo que está pasando
I don't know what's going on
Pero la cosa pinta color de hormiga caballero
But things look like a knight's ant color
(Eh, caballero!)
(Eh, knight!)
Yo no sé lo que está pasando
I don't know what's going on
Pero el milenio grita y se derrite sobre el suelo
But the millennium screams and melts on the ground
(Eh, sobre el suelo!)
(Eh, on the ground!)
Te digo, que la cosa está dura
I'm telling you, things are tough
Te digo, que la cosa no está fácil
I'm telling you, it's not easy
Te digo, que el peaje se acerca
I'm telling you, the toll is coming
Y los cielos sólo esperan tu respuesta
And the heavens are just waiting for your answer
Te digo, que la cosa está ñona
I'm telling you, things are getting tough
Y yo te digo, que la cosa se aprieta
And I'm telling you, things are tightening up
Te digo, como ley de aranceles
I'm telling you, like a tariff law
Anda mi panita ve y arregla tus papeles
Come on, my friend, go and sort out your papers
Yo no sé lo que está pasando
I don't know what's going on
Pero las decisiones hay que tomarlas cada día
But decisions have to be made every day
(Eh, cada día!)
(Eh, every day!)
No importa como lo digas
It doesn't matter how you say it
El bateador sin el madero no llega a Grandes Ligas
The batter without the bat won't make it to the Big Leagues
(Eh, Grandes Ligas!)
(Eh, Big Leagues!)
Te digo, que la cosa está dura
I'm telling you, things are tough
Te digo, que la cosa no está fácil
I'm telling you, things aren't easy
Te digo, que el peaje se acerca
I'm telling you, the toll is coming up
Y los cielos sólo esperan tu respuesta
And the heavens are just waiting for your answer
Te digo, que la cosa está ñona
I'm telling you, things are a hassle
Y yo te digo, que la cosa se aprieta
And I'm telling you, things are getting tighter
Te digo, como ley de aranceles
I'm telling you, like a tariff law
Anda mi panita ve y arregla tus papeles
Come on, my buddy, go and fix your papers
Arregla los papeles
Fix the papers
Pero te digo que más vale tarde que nunca
But I'm telling you, better late than never
(Que arregles los papeles)
(That you fix the papers)
Las decisiones se toman juntas
Decisions are made together
(Que arregles los papeles)
(That you fix the papers)
Que son los tiempos y son las leyes
Because it's about the times and the laws
(Arregla los papeles)
(Fix the papers)
Anda mi panita ve y arregla tus papeles
Come on my buddy, go and fix your papers
Yo te digo, te digo
I tell you, I tell you
(Que arregles los papeles)
(That you fix the papers)
Que nadie sabe la hora y el día
Because no one knows the hour and the day
(Que arregles los papeles)
(That you fix the papers)
Para el que quiere todo se puede
For the one who wants it all, everything is possible
(Arregla los papeles)
(Sort out the papers)
Anda mi panita ve y arregla tus papeles
Come on, my friend, go and sort out your papers
Arregla los papeles, ojoye!
Sort out the papers, oh boy!
Arregla los papeles
Sort out the papers
Te digo, que la cosa está dura
I'm telling you, things are tough
Te digo, que la cosa no está fácil
I'm telling you, things aren't easy
Te digo, que el peaje se acerca
I'm telling you, the toll is coming up
Y los cielos sólo esperan tu respuesta
And the heavens are just waiting for your answer
Te digo, que la cosa está ñona
I'm telling you, things are a mess
Y yo te digo, y que la cosa se aprieta
And I tell you, things are getting tight
Te digo, como ley de aranceles
I tell you, like a law of tariffs
Anda mi panita ve y arregla tus papeles
Come on my buddy, go and fix your papers
Te digo, te digo, arregla los papeles
I tell you, I tell you, fix the papers
Te digo, te digo, arregla los papeles
I tell you, I tell you, fix the papers
Te digo, te digo, arregla los papeles
I tell you, I tell you, fix the papers
Pero te digo, te digo, arregla los papeles
But I tell you, I tell you, fix the papers
Te digo, te digo, arregla los papeles
I tell you, I tell you, fix the papers
Te digo, te digo, arregla los papeles
I tell you, I tell you, fix the papers
