El Funcionario

Había una vez un funcionario
Había una vez un funcionario
El presidente lo nombró de Secretario
El presidente lo nombró de Secretario
De Secretario en una empresa del Estado
De Secretario en una empresa del Estado
Ya su tarea hábilmente ha comenzado
Ya su tarea hábilmente ha comenzado
Llegaban 4, 5, 6, 7 problemas
Llegaban 4, 5, 6, 7 problemas
Y el Secretario resolviendo esos problemas
Y el Secretario resolviendo esos problemas

Pero de pronto pensó en el poco tiempo
Que le quedaba como Secretario
Y su propio problema nadie lo sabía
Tenía más líos que Anthony Ríos

Y comenzó coge aquí, coge allá, coge allá, coge aquí, coge aquí, coge allá
Y comenzó coge aquí, coge allá, coge allá, coge aquí, coge aquí, coge allá
Porque pensó que era una pensión, que le dejó su papá, que le dejó su papá
Porque pensó que era una pensión, que le dejó su papá, que le dejó su papá

Un milloncito (milloncito) pa' sus hijitos (sus hijitos)
Y dos millones (dos millones) pa' su mujer (su mujer)
Un negocito (negocito) pa'l sobrinito (sobrinito)
Cuatro Mercedes (Mercedes) pa' sus placeres (ajá)
Seis camionetas (cuatro burros) pa' su finquita (su finquita)
Y en cada barrio (eh-eso), 80 casitas
Y el funcionario ya es un accionista

Tiene tienda por el Conde, tiene su propia avioneta
Tiene un yate en Barahona, Boca Chica y La Caleta
Y el funcionario ya es un millonario
Y el funcionario ya es un millonario

Una industria aquí en Herrera y un hotel allá en Haití
Y también tiene ganado en el Seibo y Macorís
Y el funcionario ya es un millonario
Y el funcionario ya es un millonario

En La Vega un almacén, tiene un cine en Dajabón
Y también tiene canales de radio y televisión, ja, ja
Y el funcionario ya es un millonario
Y el funcionario ya es un millonario

Tiene una casa de cambio, de seis bancos es accionista
Tiene 12 compraventas y además es prestamista, ja, ja
Y el funcionario ya es un millonario
Y el funcionario ya es un millonario

Tiene grandes plantaciones y una finca de algodón
También tiene un matadero para hacer su salchichón
Y el funcionario ya es un millonario
Y el funcionario ya es un millonario

Tiene grandes arrozales y una finca de café
Y una fábrica de sombreros de los que usa Cheché
Y el funcionario ya es un millonario
Y el funcionario ya es un millonario

Tiene carro deportivo y en un caso tan sencillo
Hasta toca la sirena pa comprase un cigarrillo
Y el funcionario ya es un millonario
Y el funcionario ya es un millon-

Tiene grandes restaurantes, tiene tienda de repuesto'
Y con todo lo que tiene nunca paga los impuestos
Es la realidad de ese hombre legendario
Esa es la situación y esa es la situación de ese honesto funcionario
Que-que comenzó coge aquí, coge allá, coge allá, coge aquí, coge aquí, coge allá

The Official

Once upon a time, there was an official, my dear,
Once upon a time, there was an official, you see,
The president appointed him as Secretary,
The president appointed him as Secretary, indeed,
As Secretary in a state-owned company,
As Secretary in a state-owned company, you see,
He has already skillfully begun his task,
He has already skillfully begun his task, indeed,
4, 5, 6, 7 problems were arriving,
4, 5, 6, 7 problems were arriving, you see,
And the Secretary was solving those problems,
And the Secretary was solving those problems, indeed.

But suddenly he thought about the little time,
That he had left as Secretary,
And nobody knew his own problem,
He had more troubles than Anthony Ríos, you see.

And he started taking here, taking there, taking there, taking here, taking here, taking there,
And he started taking here, taking there, taking there, taking here, taking here, taking there,
Because he thought it was a pension, that his dad left him, that his dad left him,
Because he thought it was a pension, that his dad left him, that his dad left him, you see.

A little million (little million) for his little children (his little children),
And two million (two million) for his wife (his wife),
A little business (little business) for his little nephew (little nephew),
Four Mercedes (Mercedes) for his pleasures (uh-huh),
Six trucks (four donkeys) for his little farm (his little farm),
And in each neighborhood (uh-huh), 80 little houses,
And the official is already a shareholder, you see.

He has a store on Conde Street, he has his own plane,
He has a yacht in Barahona, Boca Chica and La Caleta,
And the official is already a millionaire,
And the official is already a millionaire, you see.

An industry here in Herrera and a hotel over there in Haiti,
And he also has cattle in Seibo and Macorís,
And the official is already a millionaire,
And the official is already a millionaire, you see.

A warehouse in La Vega, he has a cinema in Dajabón,
And he also has radio and television channels, ha, ha,
And the official is already a millionaire,
And the official is already a millionaire, you see.

He has a currency exchange, he is a shareholder in six banks,
He has 12 car dealerships and is also a moneylender, ha, ha,
And the official is already a millionaire,
And the official is already a millionaire, you see.

He has large plantations and a cotton farm,
He also has a slaughterhouse to make his sausage,
And the official is already a millionaire,
And the official is already a millionaire, you see.

He has large rice fields and a coffee farm,
And a hat factory of the kind that Cheché wears,
And the official is already a millionaire,
And the official is already a millionaire, you see.

He has a sports car and in such a simple case,
He even honks the horn to buy a cigarette,
And the official is already a millionaire,
And the official is already a million-

He has large restaurants, he has a spare parts store,
And with everything he has, he never pays taxes,
It's the reality of that legendary man,
That's the situation and that's the situation of that honest official,
Who-who started taking here, taking there, taking there, taking here, taking here, taking there.
