Lyrics of El Gato López - Ska-P

El Gato López (original)

Él nació en la calle, no pudo elegir
Entre escombros y basuras tuvo que vivir
La calle le hizo fuerte, allí se rebeló
Y es que, tío, no hay dinero
¡es un gato obrero!
Su madre callejera, su padre siamés
Tiene veinte hermanos en ¡carabanchel!
Busca en la basura algo que comer
Y es que, tío, no hay dinero
¡es un gato obrero!
López es algo especial
Desde cachorrito ya bailaba ska
Sus botas, su chaleco y su forma de andar
No está domesticado, es un gato ska
Sigue, sigue, sigue, sigue, sigue, síguelo
Sigue, sigue, sigue, sigue, resiste lópez
Flaco, desnutrido, tiene que comer
Le quita las pelas a los gatos bien
Perros policía van detras de él
Y es que, tío, no hay dinero
¡venga, el monedero!
La sociedad gatuna no le quiso entender
Por eso se rebela y grita: ¡que les den bien!
Es un reflejo claro de la sociedad
Y es que, tío, no hay dinero
¡es un gato obrero!
López es algo especial
Desde cachorrito ya bailaba ska
Sus botas, su chaleco y su forma de andar
No está domesticado, ama la libertad
Sigue, sigue, sigue, sigue, sigue, síguelo
Sigue, sigue, sigue, sigue, resiste lópez

(translation)

He was born on the street, he couldn't choose
Between rubble and garbage he had to live
The street made him strong, there he rebelled
And it is that, man, there is no money
He is a working cat!
His stray mother from him, his Siamese father
He has twenty brothers in Carabanchel!
Look in the garbage for something to eat
And it is that, man, there is no money
He is a working cat!
Lopez is something special
Since I was a puppy I already danced ska
His boots, his vest and his way of walking
He is not housebroken, he is a ska cat
Follow, follow, follow, follow, follow, follow it
Keep going, keep going, keep going, keep going, hold on Lopez
Skinny, malnourished, he has to eat
It removes the fur of cats well
Police dogs are after him
And it is that, man, there is no money
come on, purse!
The cat society did not want to understand him
That's why he rebels and shouts: give them good!
It is a clear reflection of society
And it is that, man, there is no money
He is a working cat!
Lopez is something special
Since I was a puppy I already danced ska
His boots, his vest and his way of walking
He is not domesticated, he loves freedom
Follow, follow, follow, follow, follow, follow it
Keep going, keep going, keep going, keep going, hold on Lopez
