Lyrics

Conozco a un distinguido señor
De esos que creen tener siempre la razón
Es un hombre muy respetado
Su foto cuelga en la pared de un despacho
Confunde el blanco con el negro
Y así le luce siempre el pelo
Y su ambición
La econde en un cajón
Siempre guarda la compostura
Aunque dicen que a su mujer la tortura
Pero no creen que sea un mal tipo
Porque va a misa todos los domingos
Confunde el blanco con el negro…
Quiere subir muy deprisa
Y si le estorbas te aplasta, te pisa
Mira el mundo detrás de un puro
No reconoce tener trapos sucios
Confunde el blanco con el negro…

Lyrics translation

I know a Distinguished Gentleman.
Of those who think they're always right
He's a very respected man.
His photo hangs on the wall of an office
Confuse white with black
And that's how his hair always looks
And his ambition
The econde in a drawer
Always keep your composure
Although they say his wife is being tortured
But they don't think he's a bad guy
Because he goes to mass every Sunday
Confuse white with black…
He wants to go up very quickly
And if you get in his way, he crushes you, he steps on you.
Look at the world behind a cigar
He doesn't recognize having dirty rags
Confuse white with black…
