Cambalache

(original)
Que el mundo fue y será
Una porquería, ya lo sé
En el quinientos seis
Y en el dos mil, también
Que siempre ha habido chorros
Maquiavelos y estafaos
Contentos y amargaos
Varones y dublés
Pero que el siglo veinte
Es un despliegue
De maldá insolente
Ya no hay quien lo niegue
Vivimos revolcaos en un merengue
Y en el mismo lodo
Todos manoseaos
Hoy resulta que es lo mismo
Ser derecho que traidor
Ignorante, sabio, chorro
Generoso o estafador
¡Todo es igual!
¡Nada es mejor!
Lo mismo un burro
Que un gran profesor
No hay aplazaos ni escalafón
Los ignorantes nos han igualao
Si uno vive en la impostura
Y otro roba en su ambición
Da lo mismo que sea cura
Colchonero, Rey de Bastos
Caradura o polizón
¡Qué falta de respeto
Qué atropello a la razón!
Cualquiera es un señor
Cualquiera es un ladrón
Mezclao con Stavisky
Va Don Bosco y La Mignon
Don Chicho y Napoleón
Carnera y San Martín
Igual que en la vidriera
Irrespetuosa
De los cambalaches
Se ha mezclao la vida
Y herida por un sable sin remache
Ves llorar La Biblia
Junto a un calefón
Siglo veinte, cambalache
Problemático y febril
El que no llora no mama
Y el que no afana es un gil
Dale, nomás
Dale, que va
Que allá en el Horno
Nos vamo' a encontrar
No pienses más, sentate a un lao
Que a nadie importa si naciste honrao
Es lo mismo el que labura
Noche y día como un buey
Que el que vive de los otros
Que el que mata, que el que cura
O está fuera de la ley
(translation)
That the world was and will be
A piece of crap, I already know
In the five hundred six
And in two thousand, too
That there have always been jets
Machiavelli and swindlers
happy and bitter
Men and dubles
But that the twentieth century
It's a deployment
Of evil insolent
There is no longer anyone who denies it
We live wallowing in a meringue
And in the same mud
Everybody grope
Today it turns out it's the same
Being right than traitor
ignorant, wise, squirt
Generous or swindler
Everything is the same!
Nothing is better!
the same a donkey
what a great teacher
There are no postponements or steps
The ignorant have equaled us
If one lives in imposture
And another steals in his ambition
It doesn't matter if it's a cure
Mattress Maker, King of Wands
Cheeky or stowaway
what a lack of respect
What an outrage to reason!
Anyone is a gentleman
Anyone is a thief
Mix with Stavisky
Goes Don Bosco and La Mignon
Don Chicho and Napoleon
Carnera and San Martin
Just like in the window
disrespectful
of the exchanges
life has been mixed
And wounded by a saber without a rivet
You see the Bible cry
Next to a heater
Twentieth century, exchange
troublesome and feverish
He who does not cry does not breastfeed
And the one who does not strive is a gil
Come on, just
Come on, what's up?
that there in the oven
We are going to meet
Don't think anymore, sit on one side
That nobody cares if you were born honorable
It is the same who works
Night and day like an ox
That the one who lives from the others
That the one who kills, that the one who heals
Or he is outlaw
