Aborigine

Starts so slowly, just a place to stayComienza tan lentamente, solo un lugar para quedarse

Somewhere warm where they can spend their daysAlgún lugar cálido donde puedan pasar sus días

Air is stagnant and he feels uncleanEl aire es estancado y él se siente sucio

Hair hangs greasy and he smells obsceneEl cabello cuelga grasoso y huele obsceno

Something's happened and it's not so goodAlgo ha sucedido y no es tan bueno

broken bottles in the face of loveBotellas rotas en el rostro del amor

Mottled flesh under the harsh strip-lightPiel manchada bajo la dura luz fluorescente

Nylon sheets to keep them warm at nightSábanas de nylon para mantenerlos calientes por la noche

Once it's started it can never stopUna vez que comienza, nunca puede parar

fills his head with a dark damp fogllena su cabeza con una oscura niebla húmeda

In the distance is a constant cryA lo lejos hay un grito constante

growing louder as the years go byque crece más fuerte a medida que pasan los años

Days get longer and he starts to drinkLos días se alargan y él comienza a beber

spews his stomach in the kitchen sinkvomita su estómago en el fregadero de la cocina

Tells his children they should have respectLes dice a sus hijos que deben tener respeto

Tells his wife that she's a nervous wreckLe dice a su esposa que es un desastre nervioso

He hates his wife and he hates them allOdia a su esposa y odia a todos ellos

He hates his wife and he hates them allOdia a su esposa y odia a todos ellos

Can't be bothered when it's all the sameNo le importa cuando todo es igual

leave it long enough, it goes awaydéjalo el tiempo suficiente, desaparecerá

In the meantime stomach turns to fatMientras tanto, su estómago se convierte en grasa

She tries to tell him but he can't have thatElla trata de decirle pero él no puede aceptarlo

She's only jealous and she's telling liesElla solo está celosa y está mintiendo

Standing naked in his flesh disguiseDe pie desnudo en su disfraz de carne

It took him months to get her into bedLe tomó meses llevarla a la cama

now he's got her he just wants her deadahora que la tiene solo la quiere muerta

She wants excitement and she needs romanceElla quiere emoción y necesita romance

all she gets are dirty underpantstodo lo que recibe son calzoncillos sucios

Stupid animal that can't know whyEstúpido animal que no puede entender por qué

something's wrong so someone has to diealgo está mal así que alguien tiene que morir

The wind is blowing and the rain falls downEl viento sopla y la lluvia cae

Sends his family on a trip down townEnvía a su familia a un viaje al centro

Sees them die in a burning wreckLos ve morir en un accidente incendiario

Sees them burn, smokes a cigaretteLos ve arder, fuma un cigarrillo

He hates his wife and he hates them allOdia a su esposa y odia a todos ellos

He hates his wife and he hates them allOdia a su esposa y odia a todos ellos

He knows he's finished but he can't stop nowSabe que ha terminado pero no puede parar ahora

and he wants to end it but he can't see howy quiere terminarlo pero no puede ver cómo

and it's all in pieces, thrown it all awayy todo está hecho pedazos, lo ha tirado todo

Oh, but he's not ugly, he just looks that wayOh, pero no es feo, solo parece así

And he wants some quiet and he needs it nowY quiere algo de tranquilidad y lo necesita ahora

but the scream he's started's getting far too loudpero el grito que ha comenzado se vuelve demasiado fuerte

and he still pretends he does it just for nowy aún finge que lo hace solo por ahora

His day will come he'll lose it all somehowSu día llegará, lo perderá todo de alguna manera

Killing time until his ship arrivesMatando el tiempo hasta que llegue su barco

been dead ten years but he's still aliveha estado muerto diez años pero aún está vivo

and the time is wasted and the ship has sunky el tiempo está perdido y el barco se ha hundido

but he hasn't noticed and he comes home drunkpero él no lo ha notado y regresa a casa borracho

and he's just dead weight, he'll never leave the groundy es solo peso muerto, nunca despegará del suelo

He tries to stand but he keeps falling downIntenta ponerse de pie pero sigue cayendo

and it's hard to know he doesn't count for muchy es difícil saber que no cuenta mucho

He's not a has-been, just a never-wasNo es un fracasado, solo un nunca-fue

Oh he hates his wife and he hates them allOh, odia a su esposa y odia a todos ellos

He hates his wife and he hates them allOdia a su esposa y odia a todos ellos

Hates his wifeOdia a su esposa

Hates them all.Odia a todos ellos.
