Oh, the peripheryOh, la periferia

They throw good parties thereEllos arman buenas fiestas allí

Those peripheral idiotsEsos idiotas periféricos

Always have a bite to bearSiempre tienen algo que criticar

Bear it, if you canAguántalo, si puedes

If you really want toSi realmente quieres

Go to the peripheryVe a la periferia

Have them celebrate your nameHaz que celebren tu nombre

Have them forge you a pedigree and then you'll beHaz que te forjen un pedigrí y luego estarás

Left to run the races, lameDejado para correr las carreras, cojo

Run it if you wantCorre si quieres

If you think it’s worth itSi crees que vale la pena

But not with mePero no conmigo

Cause I don't appreciatePorque no aprecio

People who don't appreciateA las personas que no aprecian

All that loving must've been lackin' somethingTodo ese amor debe haber estado faltando algo

If I got bored tryin' to figure you outSi me aburrí tratando de entenderte

You let me downMe decepcionaste

I don't even like you anymore at allYa ni siquiera me gustas en absoluto

Oh, the peripheryOh, la periferia

I lost another one therePerdí a otro allí

He found a prettier girl than meEncontró una chica más bonita que yo

With a more even-tempered airCon un aire más tranquilo

And if he wants her, he should get herY si la quiere, debería conseguirla

Cause I think he thinks she's worth itPorque creo que él piensa que ella lo vale

And maybe they'll move from the peripheryY tal vez se muden de la periferia

Buy themselves their own plot of landSe compren su propio terreno

And I'll care in a different capacity, I'll just beY me importará de una manera diferente, solo estaré

Hoping he makes a good family manEsperando que sea un buen hombre de familia

And if he finds himself yearningY si se encuentra anhelando

For his throne on the silly sidePor su trono en el lado tonto

There's nothing wrong, as long as he's learningNo hay nada malo, siempre y cuando esté aprendiendo

Besides, he can take it up with his bretherenAdemás, puede hablarlo con sus hermanos

Or with his bride, just not with meO con su esposa, solo no conmigo

Cause I don't appreciatePorque no aprecio

People whoA las personas que

Don't appreciateNo aprecian

All that loving must've been lacking somethingTodo ese amor debe haber estado faltando algo

If I got bored tryin' to figure you outSi me aburrí tratando de entenderte

You let me downMe decepcionaste

I don't even like you anymore at allYa ni siquiera me gustas en absoluto

Oh, the peripheryOh, la periferia

Oh, the peripheryOh, la periferia

Oh, the peripheryOh, la periferia

Oh, the peripheryOh, la periferia

Stole you awayTe llevaron lejos

Away, awayLejos, lejos

Stole you away, awayTe llevaron lejos, lejos
