Lyrics of Dellanana - Cookin Soul

Dellanana (original)

Pa' toa' la gente que lo sabe valorar
El amor de la familia y el cariño de la ma'
Pa' toa' la gente que se tuvo que marchar
Pa' no vivir más del cuento y ponerse a trabajar
Pa' toa' la gente que adora la libertad
Pero tiene que exponerse a que se la puedan robar
Pa' toa' la gente que abogao' no tiene na'
Pero sabe que no tienen, no tienen qu declarar
Pa' toa' mi gente qu lucha a diario
Que su trabajo ya no tiene horarios
Pa' toa' la gente, pa' tós' los barrios
Pal' que no tiene pa' regalo aniversario
Pa' los que llevan toa' la vida sin darse unas vacaciones
Pa' los que venden melones
Pa' los que viven diez en tres habitaciones
Los que se refugian escuchando mis canciones
Pa' los que soñaban con irse pa' la nasa
Y despertaron y le habían quitao' la casa
Pa' los que tó' perdieron y sudaron la agonía
Y sin quererlo lo ahogaron en bebía'
Cariño tú bien sabes que te camelo
Por encima de que pierda tó' el dinero
El dinero, qué basura es el dinero
Que al bueno lo hace malo y al malo lo hace bueno
Pal' que dijo que hay que pagar medicina
Que se gaste tó' su sueldo en medicina
Pa' los racistas que sólo son un niñato
Que tu niña se enamore de un mulato
Pa' los que tienen compromiso con Hacienda
Por que resulta que este año no han perdío' dinero
Y no tiene pa' poder irse de tiendas
Pero el estado dice «tú no eres un pordiosero»
Pa' los chavales en los centros de menores
Que se perdieron toa' su infancia sin quererlo
Pa' los maestros, médicos, profesores
Que les quitan de lo que lucharon pa' poder tenerlo
A mí no me metan en su política
Yo no quiero saber ná' de su política
No me usen como arma en sus discursos
Yo hablo realidad, no estoy haciendo política
No están la deudas saldadas
Me esta comiendo la bulla
La vida no e' un cuento de hadas
No quiero verme en patrulla
No están la deudas saldadas
Me esta comiendo la bulla
La vida no e' un cuento de hadas
No quiero verme en patrulla

(translation)

For all the people who know how to value it
The love of the family and the affection of the ma'
For all the people who had to leave
Pa' no longer live the story and get to work
For all the people who love freedom
But you have to expose yourself to being stolen
For all the people who advocate don't have anything
But you know they don't have, they don't have to declare
For all my people who fight daily
That his job no longer has schedules
For all the people, for all the neighborhoods
Pal' who doesn't have pa' anniversary gift
For those who lead their whole life without taking a vacation
For those who sell melons
For those who live ten in three rooms
Those who take refuge listening to my songs
For those who dreamed of going to nasa
And they woke up and they had taken his house away
For those who all lost and sweated the agony
And unwittingly they drowned him in drink'
Honey, you know very well that I fooled you
Above losing all the money
The money, what garbage is the money
That the good makes it bad and the bad makes it good
Pal' who said that you have to pay for medicine
That he spend all his salary on medicine
For the racists who are just a kid
That your girl falls in love with a mulatto
For those who have a commitment to the Treasury
Because it turns out that this year they have not lost money
And you don't have to be able to go to the shops
But the state says "you are not a beggar"
For the kids in the centers for minors
That they lost all their childhood without wanting it
For the teachers, doctors, professors
That they take away from what they fought to be able to have it
Don't get involved in your politics
I don't want to know anything about his politics
Do not use me as a weapon in your speeches
I speak reality, I'm not doing politics
The debts are not paid
the noise is eating me
Life is not a fairy tale
I don't want to see myself on patrol
The debts are not paid
the noise is eating me
Life is not a fairy tale
I don't want to see myself on patrol
