King of the World

Rey del Mundo

King of the World

Humo y espejos
Smoke and mirrors
Es un castillo de naipes
It's a house of cards
Todo el mundo tiene ventanas
Everybody has windows
Y grandes cigarros
And big cigars

La ley de la selva
The law of the jungle
Es muy nuevo para algunos
Is very new to some
Los animales son viciosos y arrogantes
The animals are vicious and arrogant
Y se comen a sus crías
And they eat their young

Solía trabajar mi trabajo de 9 a 5
I used to work my job from 9 to 5
Acabo de sobrevivir
I just survived

Yo era el rey del mundo
I was the king of the world
Tenía todo arrojado hacia mí
I had every thing thrown at me,
Que el juez y el jurado podrían lanzar
That the judge and jury could hurl
Yo era el hombre del momento
I was the man of the hour
Me arañaba y rascaba mi camino hacia arriba
I would claw and scratch my way up,
Hasta la cima de la torre
To the very top of the tower

Esqueleto Helter
Helter skelter
Es una guarida de ladrones
It's a den of thieves
Mar de errores
Sea of errors
Que un hombre codicioso teje
That a greedy man weaves

Unas manzanas muy malas
A few really bad apples
Siempre estropear el lote
Always spoil the lot
Apagos de rodadura
Rolling blackouts
En el bloque de todos
On everyone's block

Voy a trabajar y trato de llegar a fin de mes
I go to work and try to make ends meet
Mi vida ha terminado
My life is over

Yo era el rey del mundo
I was the king of the world
Tenía todo lo que necesitaba
I had everything I needed,
Yo era dueño de todo tipo de chicas
I owned every type of girl
Yo era el hombre del momento
I was the man of the hour
Me arañaba y me rascaba el camino
I would claw and scratch my way,
Hasta la cima de la torre
Up to the very top of the tower
