The page contains the lyrics and English translation of the song "Cada Loco Con Su Tema" by Joan Manuel Serrat.

Lyrics

Cada loco con su tema,
contra gustos no hay disputas:
artefactos, bestias, hombres y mujeres,
cada uno es como es,
cada quin es cada cual
y baja las escaleras como quiere.
Pero, puestos a escoger, soy partidario
de las voces de la calle
ms que del diccionario,
me privan ms los barrios
que el centro de la ciudad
y los artesanos ms que la factora,
la razn que la fuerza,
el instinto que la urbanidad
y un siux ms que el Sptimo de Caballera.
Prefiero los caminos a las fronteras
y una mariposa al Rockefeller Center
y el farero de Capdepera
al viga de Occidente.
Prefiero querer a poder,
palpar a pisar,
ganar a perder,
besar a reir,
bailar a desfilar
y disfrutar a medir.
Prefiero volar a correr,
hacer a pensar,
amar a querer,
tomar a pedir.
Antes que nada soy
partidario de vivir.
Cada loco con su tema,
contra gustos no hay disputas:
artefactos, bestias, hombres y mujeres,
cada uno es como es,
cada quin es cada cual
y baja las escaleras como quiere.
Pero, puestos a escoger, prefiero
un buen polvo a un rapapolvo
y un bombero a un bombardero,
crecer a sentar cabeza, prefiero
la carne al metal
y las ventanas a las ventanillas,
el lunar de tu cara
a la Pinacoteca Nacional
y la revolucin a las pesadillas.
Prefiero, el tiempo al oro,
la vida al sueo,
el perro al collar,
las nueces al ruido
y al sabio por conocer
que a los locos conocidos.
Prefiero, querer a poder,
palpar a pisar,
ganar a perder,
besar a reir,
bailar a desfilar
y disfrutar a medir.
Prefiero volar a correr,
hacer a pensar,
amar a querer,
tomar a pedir.
Antes que nada soy
partidario de vivir.

Lyrics translation

Every madman with his theme,
against tastes there are no disputes:
artifacts, beasts, men and women,
each one is what it is,
every fifth is every
and go down the stairs as you like.
But, given the choice, I am in favour
from the voices of the street
more than the dictionary,
I'm deprived of the neighborhoods
that the city center
and craftsmen more than the factor,
the reason that the force,
the instinct that urbanity
and a siux more than the Sptimo of a Knight.
I prefer roads to borders
and a butterfly at Rockefeller Center
and the lighthouse keeper of Capdepera
to the West beam.
I'd rather want to be able to,
palpate to step,
win to lose,
kiss to laugh,
dancing to parade
and enjoy to measure.
I'd rather fly than run,
make to think,
love to want,
take to ask.
First of all I am
supporter of living.
Every madman with his theme,

every fifth is every
and go down the stairs as you like.
But, given the choice, I prefer
a good fuck to a rapapolvo
and a firefighter to a bomber,
grow to settle down, I prefer
meat to metal
and the windows to the windows,
the mole on your face
to the National Art Gallery
and the revolution to nightmares.
I prefer, time to gold,
the dream life,
the dog to the collar,
nuts to noise
and the wise to know
than the known crazies.
I prefer, wanting to be able,
palpate to step,
win to lose,
kiss to laugh,
dancing to parade
and enjoy to measure.
I'd rather fly than run,
make to think,
love to want,
take to ask.
First of all I am
supporter of living.
