Lyrics translated into Español · See the original lyrics

When you're up or when you're downCuando estás arriba o cuando estás abajo

Might as well get out of townMás vale salir de la ciudad

'Cause they're gonna put the blame on youPorque van a echarte la culpa a ti

If you work you'll be set freeSi trabajas, serás liberado

Maybe win the lotteryQuizás ganes la lotería

Or else they'll put the blame on youO si no, te echarán la culpa a ti

You can tryPuedes intentarlo

You can flyPuedes volar

Don't worry 'cause they're gonna put the blame on youNo te preocupes porque te echarán la culpa a ti

Just a child or hardly oldSolo un niño o apenas mayor

Always done what you were toldSiempre has hecho lo que te dijeron

And still they put the blame on youY aún así te echan la culpa a ti

Have faith in societyTen fe en la sociedad

Never seen it work have weNunca hemos visto que funcione, ¿verdad?

And they're gonna put the blame on youY te echarán la culpa a ti

You can give to a charityPuedes dar a una organización benéfica

Hope it reaches those in needEsperar que llegue a quienes lo necesitan

Not to put the blame on youNo para echarte la culpa a ti

Eat too much and wreck your healthComer en exceso y arruinar tu salud

It's a habit you tell yourselfEs un hábito que te dices a ti mismo

You'll have to put the blame on youTendrás que echarte la culpa a ti

Sex seems right if it feels goodEl sexo parece correcto si se siente bien

But if it ends in motherhoodPero si termina en maternidad

You guessed, they'll have to put the blame on youAdivinaste, tendrán que echarte la culpa a ti
