A Different World (original)

We were born to mothers who smoked and drank
Our cribs were covered in lead-based paint
No childproof lids
No seatbelts in cars
Rode bikes with no helmets
And still here we are
Still here we are
We got daddy’s belt when we misbehaved
Had three TV channels you got up to change
No video games and no satellite
All we had were friends and they were outside
Playing outside
It was a different life
When we were boys and girls
Not just a different time
It was a different world
School always started the same everyday
The pledge of allegiance, then someone would pray
Not every kid made the team when they tried
We got disappointed but that was alright
We turned out alright
It was a different life
When we were boys and girls
Not just a different time
It was a different world
No bottled water
We’d drink from a garden hose
And every Sunday,
All the stores were closed.
It was a different life
When we were boys and girls
Not just a different time
It was a different world
It was a different life
When we were boys and girls
Not just a different time
It was a different world
It was a different world

(traducción)

Nacimos de madres que fumaban y bebían
Nuestras cunas estaban cubiertas con pintura a base de plomo
Sin tapas a prueba de niños
Sin cinturones de seguridad en los coches
Montar en bicicleta sin casco
Y todavía aquí estamos
Todavía aquí estamos
Tenemos el cinturón de papá cuando nos portamos mal
Tenías tres canales de TV que te levantaste para cambiar
Sin videojuegos y sin satélite
Todo lo que teníamos eran amigos y estaban afuera
Jugando afuera
Era una vida diferente
Cuando éramos niños y niñas
No solo un tiempo diferente
Era un mundo distinto
La escuela siempre empezaba igual todos los días
El juramento de lealtad, entonces alguien oraría
No todos los niños formaron parte del equipo cuando intentaron
Nos decepcionó, pero estuvo bien.
salimos bien
Era una vida diferente
Cuando éramos niños y niñas
No solo un tiempo diferente
Era un mundo distinto
Sin agua embotellada
Beberíamos de una manguera de jardín
Y cada domingo,
Todas las tiendas estaban cerradas.
Era una vida diferente
Cuando éramos niños y niñas
No solo un tiempo diferente
Era un mundo distinto
Era una vida diferente
Cuando éramos niños y niñas
No solo un tiempo diferente
Era un mundo distinto
Era un mundo distinto
