Lyrics

Letra de «Donaciano»
Sentado sobre un sillón de algún puesto burocrático
Este pobre Donacio habla poco en su despacho
Día tras día, paso a paso
Con aire de gran señor: ¨Buenas tardes señorita¨
¨Buenas tardes Donacio¨contesta una triste voz
Las paredes sonríen y murmuran entre si;
Cuantos, cuantos Donacios han pasado por aquí
El sillón también les dice: yo les quiero referir
¨lo menos en cientos de estos se han sentado sobre mi¨
Y este piensa que es distinto, que va a ser emperador
Y el pobre lo manipula el interés de este señor
Y este piensa que es distinto, que va a ser emperador
Y el pobre lo manipula el interés de otro señor
Y al final se queda en casa, con treinta años de trabajo
Con sus ojos desgastados, feliz por ser jubilado
Con la mitad del salario
Con sus ojos desgastados
Con la mitad del salario

Lyrics translation

Lyrics of " Donaciano»
Sitting on an armchair of some bureaucratic post
This poor Donacio speaks little in his office
Day after day, step by step
With the air of a great Lord: good afternoon Miss
Good afternoon Donaciocontest a sad voice
The walls smile and whisper to each other;
How many, how many donations have passed through here
The chair also tells them: I want to refer them
at least in hundreds of these have sat upon my
And this one thinks he's different, he's going to be emperor
And the poor man manipulates the interest of this gentleman
And this one thinks he's different, he's going to be emperor
And the poor man manipulates the interest of another Lord
And in the end he stays at home, with thirty years of work
With his eyes worn out, happy to be retired
With half the salary
With his eyes worn out
With half the salary
