| They woke to grey English morning
| Se despertaron a la gris mañana inglesa
|
| And to a strange honeymoon
| Y a una extraña luna de miel
|
| The girl who gave him all her love
| La chica que le dio todo su amor.
|
| And the man who said it still wouldn’t do His parents always worked hard
| Y el hombre que dijo que todavía no lo haría Sus padres siempre trabajaron duro
|
| Never went to bed late
| Nunca me acosté tarde
|
| Nd though they were God’s own people
| Y aunque eran el propio pueblo de Dios
|
| They’re still the ones he loves to hate
| Todavía son los que ama odiar
|
| He never wanted to Suffer this fate
| Él nunca quiso sufrir este destino
|
| All the girls have fallen for
| Todas las chicas se han enamorado
|
| The man they love to hate
| El hombre al que aman odiar
|
| The city is an animal
| La ciudad es un animal
|
| It snores and by day it roars
| Ronca y de día ruge
|
| And though he loved to hate it He couldn’t live without it’s flaws
| Y aunque le encantaba odiarlo, no podía vivir sin sus defectos
|
| With pastel curtains moaning
| Con cortinas pastel gimiendo
|
| At a thousand harsh words — then hush
| Ante mil palabras duras, entonces silencio
|
| The girl she wanted to leave
| La chica que quería dejar
|
| Because she loved the man too much
| Porque amaba demasiado al hombre.
|
| He never wanted to Suffer this fate
| Él nunca quiso sufrir este destino
|
| All the girls have fallen for
| Todas las chicas se han enamorado
|
| The man they love to hate
| El hombre al que aman odiar
|
| His father was a fighter
| Su padre era un luchador.
|
| And he practised on his son
| Y practicó con su hijo
|
| His mother was just some furniture
| Su madre era solo un mueble
|
| Who’d lost the will to run
| ¿Quién había perdido la voluntad de correr?
|
| The girl she wrote him a farewell note
| La niña le escribió una nota de despedida
|
| And though he probably didn’y care too much
| Y aunque probablemente no le importaba demasiado
|
| The girl she finally left him
| La niña que finalmente lo dejó.
|
| Because she loved the man too much | Porque amaba demasiado al hombre. |
