Making Roadkill

Cretin

Lyrics translated into Español · See the original lyrics

Shambling down the roadsideCaminando por el borde de la carretera

Cheering as he goesAnimándose mientras avanza

A manic, flailing cretinUn cretino maníaco y desaliñado

In filthy, tattered clothesEn ropas sucias y andrajosas

Dead things are his playmatesLas cosas muertas son sus compañeros de juego

He takes them in his careLos cuida con esmero

Clutching limbs and tailsAgarrando extremidades y colas

He whips roadkill through the air¡Lanza animales atropellados por el aire!

He uses them in puppet showsLos utiliza en espectáculos de marionetas

Hung around his shackColgados alrededor de su choza

Stuffs his backpack full of furLlena su mochila de piel

Some bloody-most are flatAlgunos ensangrentados y aplanados

Tied onto his belt of ropeAtados a su cinturón de cuerda

A skirt of sunbaked stinkUna falda de hedor tostado por el sol

Running out of furry friendsQuedándose sin amigos peludos

He strokes their pelts and thinksAcaricia sus pieles y piensa

Setting makeshift trapsColocando trampas improvisadas

He titters and he clapsSe ríe y aplaude

Birdies, fish, and ratsPajaritos, peces y ratas

Are crammed in burlap sacksEstán apretujados en sacos de arpillera

[Guitar solo: Olivo][Solo de guitarra: Olivo]

He drags the critters to the streetArrastra a las criaturas a la calle

Waits for cars to passEspera a que pasen los autos

Then throws them at the tire wellsLuego las arroja a las ruedas

It kills them very fastLas mata muy rápido

Sometimes lucky animalsA veces animales afortunados

Scurry past unharmedCorren ilesos

Cretin screams and gives up chaseEl cretino grita y desiste de la persecución

But catching them is hardPero atraparlos es difícil

Drags them from their densLos arrastra de sus madrigueras

Yanks them from their pensLos saca de sus corrales

They bite his scabby handLe muerden su mano escamosa

He tosses them again¡Los arroja de nuevo!

[Guitar solo: Martinez][Solo de guitarra: Martinez]

One day running after preyUn día persiguiendo presas

A stormy winter dayUn día de invierno tormentoso

An orange van hits the manUna camioneta naranja golpea al hombre

And breaks both of his legsY le rompe ambas piernas

He drags himself back to his fortSe arrastra de vuelta a su fortaleza

Despite the biting painA pesar del dolor punzante

And wraps himself in animalsY se envuelve en animales

Roadkill that he madeAnimales atropellados que él mismo hizo
