(Polca)

Si el enderezar entuertos
no es cosa que te compete
¿quién te mete, Juan Copete?

Si él que ayer vino en chancleta
hoy anda en soberbio coche,
atrapando a troche y moche
cargos, honras y pesetas;
si a otros dan duras galletas
y él logra el blando rosquete,
¿quién te mete, Juan Copete?

Si un truhán, con arte y risa
logra un caudal que atesora,
aunque el público no ignora
de dónde salen las misas,
y si al entrar en pesquisas,
le vuelcan el cubilete,
¿quién te mete, Juan Copete?

Si un periodista enemigo
a otro periodista infama
y, al mismo tiempo, le llama
sabio, colega y amigo,
si así le corta el ombligo
con suave y dulce falsete,
¿quién te mete, Juan Copete?

Sin con astucia, Fabricio
logra hacerse diputado,
y de un cargo tan sagrado
hace ganga y beneficio,
si afloja con artificio
cuando es preciso que apriete,
¿quién te mete, Juan Copete?

Si olvidando la constancia
que le impone su deber,
vende su voto al poder
por una suerte de estancia,
y se le dan importancia
en vez de darle el grillete,
¿quién te mete, Juan Copete?

En fin, una cosa sola
diré, y lo demás es paja,
si quien debe, el mal no ataja
no dejes correr la bola,
aunque gastes tu farola
y digan:
Si el enderezar entuertos
no es cosa que te compete
¡igual metete, Juan Copete!*
