Lyrics and translation Jesus Cifuentes - Ska del paro

Ska del paro

Hoy tener curro es todo un lujazo
Que poca gente puede pillar.
Está jodido tener trabajo,
Fácil te puedan echar.
Corriendo voy, parado vengo.
Por el camino no encontré nada.
Estoy parado y no me entretengo,
Sin encontrar el jornal.

Y si está difícil pillar un curro pa poder vivir,
Sin que te exploten como a un burro.
Curra hasta morir
Y está difícil, tener un jefe que sea honesto,
Y si protestas un poquito, ya te puedes ir.

Casi una vida pase en el cole.
En mi carrera otra mitad.
No me dan curro en lo que me queda,
¿Pa qué fue tanto estudiar?

Una semana de panadero
A todas horas haciendo el pan.
Otros tres meses de jornalero,
Y un año sin hacer na.

Y si está difícil pillar un curro pa poder vivir,
Sin que te exploten como a un burro.
Curra hasta morir
Y está difícil, tener un jefe que sea honesto,
Y si protestas un poquito, ya te puedes ir.

Quien tiene curro no se menea.
Los que no tienen, hay que aguantar.
Los que controlan la economía
No hacen nada por cambiar.

Los que manejan todo el cotarro
También se quejan que les va mal.
Les cambio el puesto por su trabajo.
Amasar más capital.

Y si está difícil pillar un curro pa poder vivir,
Sin que te exploten como a un burro.
Curra hasta morir
Y está difícil, tener un jefe que sea honesto,
Y si protestas un poquito, ya te puedes ir.

Ska of Unemployment

Nowadays, having a job is a real luxury
That few people can get.
It's tough to have a job,
It's easy for them to fire you.
I run out, I come back unemployed.
I didn't find anything along the way.
I'm unemployed and I don't waste my time,
Without finding a job.

And if it's hard to get a job to make a living,
Without being exploited like a donkey.
Work until you drop
And it's difficult to have a boss who is honest,
And if you protest a little, you can go.

I spent almost a lifetime in school.
Another half in my career.
They don't give me a job in what I'm left with,
What was the point of studying so much?

A week as a baker
Making bread at all hours.
Another three months as a day laborer,
And a year without doing anything.

And if it's hard to get a job to make a living,
Without being exploited like a donkey.
Work until you drop
And it's difficult to have a boss who is honest,
And if you protest a little, you can go.

Those who have a job don't budge.
Those who don't, have to endure.
Those who control the economy
Do nothing to change it.

Those who run the whole show
Also complain that they are doing badly.
I would swap his job for my job.
To amass more capital.

And if it's hard to get a job to make a living,
Without being exploited like a donkey.
Work until you drop
And it's difficult to have a boss who is honest,
And if you protest a little, you can go.
