Original Lyrics
Translation in Spanish
verse
My name is Jonas
Me llamo Jonás
I′m carrying the wheel
Estoy llevando la rueda
Thanks for all you've shown us
Gracias a todo lo que nos has mostrado
But this is how we feel
Pero esto es cómo nos sentimos
Come sit next to me
Vení y sentaté a mi lado
Pour yourself some tea
Servíte un té
Just like grandma made
Como lo hizo abuela
When we couldn′t find sleep
Cuando no pudimos dormir
Things were better then
Antes las cosas eran mejor
Once but never again
Una vez más pero nunca más
We've all left the den
Nosotros todos hemos salido de la guarida
Let me tell you 'bout it
Dejáme decirte sobre ello
The choo-choo train left right on time
El tren se fue justo a tiempo
A ticket costs only your mind
Un boleto sólo cuesta tu mente
The driver said, "Hey man, we go all the way"
El conductor dijo, "che, nosotros vamos todo el camino"
Of course, we were willing to pay
Por supuesto, nosotros podemos pagar por el camino
My name is Wepeel
Me llamo Wepeel
Got a box full of your toys
Tengo una caja llena de tus juguetes
They′re fresh out of batteries
Están recién salidos de las baterías
But they′re still makin' noise, makin′ noise
Pero están todavía haciendo ruido
Tell me what to do
Decíme qué hago
Now the tank is dry
Ahora el tanque está seco
Now this wheel is flat
Ahora la rueda es plana
And you know what else?
¿Y vos sabés qué más?
Guess what I received
Adiviná lo qué recibí
In the mail today
Hoy en el correo
Words of deep concern
Las palabras de preocupación profunda
From my little brother
De mi hermano menor
The building's not going as he planned
El edificio no va a funcionar como lo planeamos
The foreman has injured his hand
El capataz se ha herido la mano
The dozer will not clear a path
El bulldozer no despejará un camino
The driver swears he learned his math
El conductor jura que él aprendió matemáticas
The workers are going home
Los trabajadores van a su casa
The workers are going home
Los trabajadores van a su casa
The workers are going home
Los trabajadores van a su casa
The workers are going home
Los trabajadores van a su casa
Yeah!
Sí
The workers are going home
Los trabajadores van a su casa
The workers are going home
Los trabajadores van a su casa
The workers are going home
Los trabajadores van a su casa
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
¡Sí! ¡Sí! ¡Sí!
