The page contains the lyrics and English translation of the song "Actuar Para Vivir" by Juan Carlos Baglietto.

Lyrics

Y te aplaudirán, te aplastarán
Aqui la frustración, la piel, las ganas
Aqui seras payaso y domadór
Aqui seras el juez y el perdedór
Aqui se invertiran los roles
Para usted
Usted que esta alli
Nosotros arriba
La calle, el escenario
Digamos mejor
Que es necesario
Actuar para vivir
Y en un fatal primer acto nacemos
Cambiando siempre el vestuario y el juego
Siempre tras la emoción
Que es el sueldo esencial
Siempre tras la noche
Y las mesas de café
Jaqueamos la inteligencia como peón al rey
Jaqueamos la inteligencia. la hacemos canción
Toda esa magia escondida
La de los altos telones
No es nada mas que un anhelo de dos
La gente, el actor
Las ganas de verse ahi
Se escuchó el ultimo aplauso
Se fueron todas las luces
Quedaron solo fantasmas de ayer
Sin nombre, sin tez
Mañana quizas este el mio

Lyrics translation

And they'll applaud you, they'll crush you
Here the frustration, the skin, the desire
Here you will be a clown and tame
Here you will be the judge and the loser
Here the roles will be reversed
For you
You who are there
Us up
The street, the stage
Let's say better
That is necessary
Acting to live
And in a fatal first act we are born
Always changing the costumes and the game
Always after emotion
Which is the essential salary
Always after the night
And coffee tables
We take intelligence as a pawn to the King
We jack up the intelligence. we make it a song
All that hidden magic
That of the high curtains
It's nothing more than a longing for two
The people, the actor
The desire to see you there
The last applause was heard
All the lights are gone
There were only ghosts left from yesterday
No name, no complexion
Tomorrow maybe it's mine
