Lyrics and translation Joaquín Sabina - Me Pido Primer

Me Pido Primer

Me pido primer
Me pido primer
Mi primera manzana se llamaba "¿quién eres?"
Mi primera ventana se llamaba "¿por qué?"
Mi primer laberinto se llamaba mujeres
Mi primer vino tinto se llamaba Noé
Mi primer fugitivo se llamaba extranjero
Mi primer cheque en blanco se llamaba R.A
Mi primer mandamiento se llamaba no quiero
Mi primer papamóvil se llamaba papá
Mi primer espejismo se llamaba verano
Mi primera fulana se llamaba por fin
Mi primer pasaporte se llamaba Mariano
Mi primer aeropuerto se llamaba París
Mi primer desconcierto se llamaba destino
Mi primer esperanto se llamaba español
Mi primer Al Capone se llamaba Al Paccino
Mi primera blasfemia se llamaba oración
Todos nacemos en cualquier lugar
Me pido primer para desertar de la estrechez
De los que saben negociar
Tablas en el ajedrez
(Uh, uh uh uh)
Que no te quiten la vez
Los que hablan sin respirar
Ah ah ah, ah ah ah
Ah ah ah, ah ah ah
1, 2, 1, 2
Me pido primer
Me pido primer
Mi primer aguacate se llamaba pomelo
Mi primer crecepelo se llamaba champú
Mi primer disparate se llamaba consuelo
Mi primer desconsuelo se llamaba Moscú
Mi primer apellido se llamaba Martínez
Mi primer borsalino se llamaba bombín
Mi primer gramanola fué en la cola de un cine
Mi primera frontera se llamaba Joaquín
(Se llamaba Joaquín...)
Todos nacemos en cualquier lugar
Me pido primer para desertar de la memez
De los que saben negociar
Tablas en el ajedrez
Que no te quiten la sed
Los que hablan sin respirar
Todos nacemos en cualquier lugar
Me pido primer para desertar de la vejez
De los que saben negociar
Tablas en el ajedrez
Tú no me trates de usted
Ni me hables sin respirar
Ah ah ah, ah ah ah
Ah ah ah, ah ah ah
Me pido primer

I Ask First

I ask first
I ask first
My first apple was called "who are you?"
My first window was called "why?"
My first labyrinth was called women
My first red wine was called Noah
My first fugitive was called foreigner
My first blank check was called R.A.
My first commandment was called I don't want to
My first popemobile was called Dad
My first mirage was called summer
My first prostitute was called finally
My first passport was called Mariano
My first airport was called Paris
My first bewilderment was called destiny
My first Esperanto was called Spanish
My first Al Capone was called Al Paccino
My first blasphemy was called prayer
We are all born anywhere
I ask first to desert the narrowness
Of those who know how to trade
Tables in chess
(Uh, uh uh uh)
Don't let them take your turn
Those who speak without breathing
Ah ah ah, ah ah ah
Ah ah ah, ah ah ah
1, 2, 1, 2
I ask first
I ask first
My first avocado was called grapefruit
My first hair grower was called shampoo
My first nonsense was called consolation
My first heartbreak was called Moscow
My first last name was Martinez
My first fedora was called bowler hat
My first gramophone was in a cinema queue
My first border was called Joaquin
(It was called Joaquin...)
We are all born anywhere
I ask first to desert the idiocy
Of those who know how to trade
Tables in chess
Don't let them take your thirst
Those who speak without breathing
We are all born anywhere
I ask first to desert old age
Of those who know how to trade
Tables in chess
You don't have to treat me formally
Or talk to me without breathing
Ah ah ah, ah ah ah
Ah ah ah, ah ah ah
I ask first
