I want to be a butterfly

I have the disease of Modern Living
All too desperate and lonely
Hopping around, from one vagina to another
Looking for the real thing.

I want to be
Some kind of Butterfly
Things would be better
Things would be better
If I was
The kind of butterfly
Things would be better
Certainly better

Saying no it’s not a problem for me
You see, it never has been
My tragedy of all times
Is that I said yes, when I wanted to say no

I want to be
Some kind of Butterfly
Things would be better
Things would be better
If I was a kind of butterfly
Things would be better
Most certainly better

We just hoop and hoop to the next
And fuck again
Spreading all kinds of bacteria along the way
And all this in the name of love
In the name of love and I, of loneliness
Because if you fuck good enough
This time you might

never, never be lonely again

I want to be
Some kind of Butterfly
Things would be better
Things would be better
If I was a kind of

butterfly
Things would be better
Certainly better

There is a funny woman sitting across the bar from me
Twisting with her red hair and golden chain
She keeps on smiling
I don’t smile back
She stares at me perpetually

I want to be
Some kind of Butterfly
Things would be better
Things would be better
If I was a kind of butterfly
Things would be better
Most certainly better

If I was a kind of butterfly
Things would be better
I know, I know
Most certainly better

A butterfly…

Ay la plata se vuelve nada
Nada se vuelve la plata
La plata se vuelve nada
Nada se vuelve la plata
La cojo por la mañana
La cuento pero alcanza
Y la plata se vuelve nada
Nada se vuelve la plata

¡Claro que sí!

La plata se vuelve nada
Nada se vuelve la plata
La cojo por la mañana
Hago cuenta' y no me alcanza

Fui a comprar a la tienda
Lo de la semana
Saqué mi cartera
Y no tenía nada
Y me quedó la nevera
Vacía, ni con qué llenarla

Ay la plata se vuelve nada
Nada se vuelve la plata
La plata se vuelve nada
Nada se vuelve la plata
La cojo por la mañana
Hago cuenta' y no me alcanza

Saqué un billete de a cien
Pa’ comprar unas cositas
Saqué un billete de a cien
Pa’ comprar unas cositas
Pero cuando vine a ver
Me quedó una monedita

Ay la plata se vuelve nada
Nada se vuelve la plata
La plata se vuelve nada
Nada se vuelve la plata
Yo la cojo en la mañana
Hago cuenta' y no me alcanza

Ay la plata se vuelve nada
Nada se vuelve la plata
La plata se vuelve nada
Nada se vuelve la plata
Ay la plata se vuelve nada
Nada se vuelve la plata
La cojo por la mañana
Hago cuenta' y no me alcanza

Oh, money becomes nothing
Nothing becomes money
Money becomes nothing
Nothing becomes money
I take it in the morning
I count it but it's not enough
And money becomes nothing
Nothing becomes money

Of course!

Money becomes nothing
Nothing becomes money
I take it in the morning
I count it but it's not enough

I went to buy at the store
Some stuff for the week
I took out my wallet
And had nothing
And the fridge was left
Empty, with nothing to fill it

Oh, money becomes nothing
Nothing becomes money
Money becomes nothing
Nothing becomes money
I take it in the morning
I count it but it's not enough

I took out a hundred
To buy some things
I took out a hundred
To buy some things
But when I looked
I only had a little coin left

Oh, money becomes nothing
Nothing becomes money
Money becomes nothing
Nothing becomes money
I take it in the morning
I count it but it's not enough

Oh, money becomes nothing
Nothing becomes money
Money becomes nothing
Nothing becomes money
Oh, money becomes nothing
Nothing becomes money
I take it in the morning
I count it but it's not enough

ES:

Ay yo quiero una muchachita
Que me quiera y que me adore
Yo quiero una muchachita
Que me quiera y que me adore
Que sea buena y comprensiva
Y que perdone mis errores
Que sea buena y comprensiva
Y que perdone mis errores

Porque nadie entiende
Ni siente
Lo que estoy sintiendo yo
Porque siempre intento
Quererte
Y tú no me das valor

Y tú no me das valor a mí
Y tanto que yo te quiero a ti
Y tanto que yo te quiero a ti
Y tu no me das valor a mí

Yo sé que puedes cambiar
Tu manera de quererme
Yo sé que puedes cambiar
Tu manera de quererme
Que si salgo a parrandear
No reclames cuando llegue
Que si salgo a parrandear
No me reclames tanto mami

Porque nadie entiende
Ni siente
Lo mismo que siento yo
Porque siempre intento quererte
Y tú no me das valor

Y tú no me das valor a mí
Y tanto que yo te quiero a ti
Y tanto que yo te quiero a ti
Y tu no me das valor a mí

Y tú no me das valor a mí
Y tu no me das valor a mí
Y tanto que yo te quiero a ti
Y tu no me das valor a mí

Es que yo te quiero negra linda
Es que yo te quiero corazón

Que caja sabrosa, ve!

Oh, I want a girl
Who loves me and adores me
I want a girl
Who loves me and adores me
Who is good and understanding
And forgives my mistakes
Who is good and understanding
And forgives my mistakes

Because nobody understands
Or feels
What I'm feeling
Because I always try
To love you
And you don't value me

And you don't value me
And I love you so much
And I love you so much
And you don't value me

I know you can change
Your way of loving me
I know you can change
Your way of loving me
That if I go out to party
Don't complain when I come back
That if I go out to party
Don't complain so much, darling

Because nobody understands
Or feels
The same way I do
Because I always try to love you
And you don't value me

And you don't value me
And I love you so much
And I love you so much
And you don't value me

And you don't value me
And you don't value me
And I love you so much
And you don't value me

Because I love you, beautiful black girl
Because I love you, sweetheart

What a tasty rhythm, look!

Y sigo solo
Desde aquella madrugada que te vi
Con tequila lloro
Porque siempre estoy pensando en ti
Y perdí todo
Buscando el elixir para olvidarme de ti
Con tequila lloro
Porque siempre estoy pensando en ti

Par de morritas me escribieron
Par de panas ya me dijeron 
Que te vieron con un bobo
Que no se parece a mi
Cuánto tiempo ha pasado al menos
Una bala dolía menos
Ni una semana pudiste mantenerte fiel a mi

Y sigo solo
Desde aquella madrugada que te vi
Con tequila lloro
Porque siempre estoy pensando en ti
Y perdí todo
Buscando el elixir para olvidarme de ti
Con tequila lloro
Porque siempre estoy pensando en ti
Y sigo solo
Desde aquella madrugada que te vi
Con tequila lloro
Porque siempre estoy pensando en ti
Y perdí todo
Buscando el elixir para olvidarme de ti
Con tequila lloro
Porque siempre estoy pensando en ti

Compa traiga otra botella
Pa' no pensar en ella
Porque me está lastimando
Traté de seguir su huella
Como centella
Desapareció volando

Y las rancheras y la borrachera
Son mis compañeras en este viaje largo
Quisiera que el dolor se fuera
Desapareciera pero me hace daño
Si no está y si aparece
Si se va o se desvanece
No la puedo superar
La amo aunque amarla duele

Y sigo solo
Desde aquella madrugada que te vi
Con tequila lloro
Porque siempre estoy pensando en ti
Y perdí todo
Buscando el elixir para olvidarme de ti
Con tequila lloro
Porque siempre estoy pensando en ti

And I'm still alone
Since that early morning I saw you
With tequila, I cry
Because I'm always thinking of you
And I lost everything
Looking for the elixir to forget you
With tequila, I cry
Because I'm always thinking of you

A couple of girls wrote to me
A couple of buddies already told me
That they saw you with some fool
Who doesn't look like me
How much time has passed, at least
A bullet would have hurt less
Not even a week could you stay faithful to me

And I'm still alone
Since that early morning I saw you
With tequila, I cry
Because I'm always thinking of you
And I lost everything
Looking for the elixir to forget you
With tequila, I cry
Because I'm always thinking of you
And I'm still alone
Since that early morning I saw you
With tequila, I cry
Because I'm always thinking of you
And I lost everything
Looking for the elixir to forget you
With tequila, I cry
Because I'm always thinking of you

Buddy, bring another bottle
So I don't think about her
Because she's hurting me
I tried to follow her trail
Like a flash
She disappeared flying

And the rancheras and the drunkenness
Are my companions on this long journey
I wish the pain would go away
Disappear but it hurts me
If she's not here and if she appears
If she leaves or fades away
I can't get over her
I love her even though loving her hurts

And I'm still alone
Since that early morning I saw you
With tequila, I cry
Because I'm always thinking of you
And I lost everything
Looking for the elixir to forget you
With tequila, I cry
Because I'm always thinking of you

Verde, blanco y rojo los colores
De aquella bandera que me vio crecer
Un águila devora serpiente pa' poner en alto
Y se vea quién es quién
Verde, blanco y rojo los colores
De aquella bandera que me vio crecer
Un águila devora serpiente pa' poner en alto
Y se vea quién es quién

Siempre le chingamos todos
De poco a poquito pa' salir a delante
Crecimos con la rayuela, jugando al trompo
Y viendo Pedro infante
Aquí a nadie le faltaron huevos
Pa' siempre jalarle todo el día
En mi país no caben pretextos
Primero la patria y la familia

Esta va para toda mi gente
Orgullosa de ser Mexicana
De siempre levantar la bandera
Y por colorearse siempre de verde, blanco y rojo
Y vámonos con todo
¡Viva México!

Verde, blanco y rojo los colores
De aquella bandera que me vio crecer
Un águila devora serpiente pa' poner en alto
Y se vea quién es quién
Verde, blanco y rojo los colores
De aquella bandera que me vio crecer
Un águila devora serpiente pa' poner en alto
Y se vea quién es quién

Con un tequila en la mesa
Voy disfrutando de la vida
Con mis amigos y cerveza
Buena vida bien vivida

Tenemos buenas mujeres
La mejor comida
Y las playas también
Llenos de cultura siempre
Día de muertos
Mariachi pa' amanecer
Los murales coloridos
De Diego Rivera se ven florecer
El arte de Frida Kahlo
A los alebrijes, la gente también
Somos gente chambeadora
Y con ganas siempre de sobresalir
Por México yo doy todo
Sabes no me rajo doy todo por ti

Verde, blanco y rojo los colores
De aquella bandera que me vio crecer
Un águila devora serpiente pa' poner en alto
Y se vea quién es quién
Verde, blanco y rojo los colores
De aquella bandera que me vio crecer
Un águila devora serpiente pa' poner en alto
Y se vea quién es quién

Green, white, and red are the colors
Of that flag that saw me grow up
An eagle devours a snake to rise up high
And show who's who
Green, white, and red are the colors
Of that flag that saw me grow up
An eagle devours a snake to rise up high
And show who's who

We always give it our all
Little by little to move forward
We grew up with hopscotch, spinning tops
And watching Pedro Infante
Here, nobody lacked courage
To work hard all day long
In my country, there are no excuses
First the homeland and the family

This is for all my people
Proud to be Mexican
Always raising the flag
And always coloring themselves with green, white, and red
Let's go for it all
Long live Mexico!

Green, white, and red are the colors
Of that flag that saw me grow up
An eagle devours a snake to rise up high
And show who's who
Green, white, and red are the colors
Of that flag that saw me grow up
An eagle devours a snake to rise up high
And show who's who

With a tequila on the table
I'm enjoying life
With my friends and beer
Good life well lived

We have good women
The best food
And also beaches
Full of culture always
Day of the Dead
Mariachi to welcome the dawn
The colorful murals
Of Diego Rivera flourish
Frida Kahlo's art
To the alebrijes, people too
We are hardworking people
And always eager to excel
For Mexico, I give everything
You know I don't give up, I'd give everything for you

Green, white, and red are the colors
Of that flag that saw me grow up
An eagle devours a snake to rise up high
And show who's who
Green, white, and red are the colors
Of that flag that saw me grow up
An eagle devours a snake to rise up high
And show who's who

Lograr salir del callejón
