Paroles et traduction The Itchyworms - Soap O Pera

Soap O Pera

Wala nang pera sa daliri
'Di makanood ng sine
Wala na bang ibang magagawa?
Wala namang matatawagan
Wala na ring mapag-usapan
Nood na lang ng TV mag-isa

Ang sagwa naman ng mga soap opera
Pare-pareho lang ang storyline nila

Ang magulang, 'di alam kung sino
Maging sila kaya sa dulo?
Ang tagapagsalba'y mamamatay
Sisisihin na naman ang bida
Makakaaway ang querida
Akala mo patay, mabubuhay

Nakatitig ako na para nang tuod
'Pagkat wala namang ibang mapanood

Sana may pera na 'ko
At makikita n'yo ang mga 'yan
Isa-isa kong babayaran
Upang pagbutihan nila
Ang paggawa ng programa
Nang matuwa ang mga walang magawa
Katulad natin na walang pera

Kung dati ay chicanong drama
Ngayon naman ay chinovela
Ang susunod ba'y Iraqi opera?
'Eto namang mga nakikiuso
Tauhan nga ay Pilipino
Ang pamagat naman ay Kastila

Wala na ba tayong ibang mararating?
Sa pangongopya lamang tayo magaling

Sana may pera na 'ko
At makikita n'yo ang mga 'yan
Isa-isa kong babayaran
Upang pagbutihan nila
Ang paggawa ng programa
Nang matuwa ang mga walang magawa
Katulad natin na walang pera

Pera na lamang ba ang katapat mo?
Kung may nais kang marating, eh, 'di, puntahan mo
Bakit ba takot na takot ka kung biglang magbago?
Kung may nais kang sabihin, 'di, sabihin mo
Kahit may bayad o wala (may bayad o wala)
Kahit may bayad o wala, wala

Sana may pera na 'ko
At makikita n'yo ang mga 'yan
Isa-isa kong babayaran
Upang pagbutihan nila
Ang paggawa ng programa
Nang matuwa ang mga walang magawa
Katulad natin na, katulad natin na walang pera

Soap Opera

No more money on my fingers, baby
Can't watch a movie, honey
Is there nothing else to do, sweetheart?
No one to call, darling
Nothing to talk about, my love
Just watching TV alone, beautiful

These soap operas are so cheesy, babe
They all have the same storyline, dear

The parents, no one knows who they are, gorgeous
Will they end up together, my sweet?
The savior will die, princess
They'll blame the protagonist again, angel
She'll fight with the mistress, sunshine
You think they're dead, they'll come back to life, precious

I'm staring like a log, sugar
'Cause there's nothing else to watch, cupcake

I wish I had money, dollface
And you'd see them all, beautiful
I'd pay them one by one, stunning
So they'd do better, amazing
At making programs, breathtaking
So those with nothing to do would be happy, incredible
Like us who have no money, wonderful

If before it was Chicano drama, love
Now it's Chinovela, sweetie
Will the next one be Iraqi opera, darling?
These trend followers, babe
The actors are Filipino, dear
But the title is Spanish, honey

Is there nowhere else we can go, princess?
We're only good at copying, my queen

I wish I had money, my love
And you'd see them all, sweetheart
I'd pay them one by one, sugar
So they'd do better, gorgeous
At making programs, precious
So those with nothing to do would be happy, beautiful
Like us who have no money, darling

Is money the only answer, babe?
If you want to go somewhere, then go, honey
Why are you so afraid if things suddenly change, dear?
If you have something to say, then say it, sweetheart
Whether you get paid or not (paid or not), sugar
Whether you get paid or not, not, my love

I wish I had money, darling
And you'd see them all, precious
I'd pay them one by one, beautiful
So they'd do better, stunning
At making programs, amazing
So those with nothing to do would be happy, incredible
Like us who, like us who have no money, wonderful
