A Cursive Career

CongratulationsFelicidades

Looks like you finally made it, boyParece que finalmente lo lograste, chico

You're a real major-leauger nowAhora eres un verdadero jugador de la liga mayor

Mama must be so, so proudMamá debe estar tan, pero tan orgullosa

The word aroundLa palabra por ahí

Is that your nest was too cozyEs que tu nido era demasiado acogedor

See, some words are like bricksVerás, algunas palabras son como ladrillos

And so we built our fortressesY así construimos nuestras fortalezas

You're on your own now, boyAhora estás solo, chico

I bet you got the whole world figured outApuesto a que tienes todo el mundo resuelto

One man cleans up after the ponyUn hombre limpia después del pony

And another man rides that pony outY otro hombre monta ese pony

And prances aroundY se pavonea

Isn't that what you were trained for¿No es para eso para lo que fuiste entrenado?

But your words weigh you downPero tus palabras te pesan

You built your nest of bricksConstruiste tu nido de ladrillos

Built your nest of bricksConstruiste tu nido de ladrillos

All (we say)Todo (decimos)

We are (today)Lo que somos (hoy)

Is all (we say)Es todo (decimos)

We'll be (tomorrow)Lo que seremos (mañana)
