Great King Rat by Queen
Lyrics & Translation
English
Great King Rat died today
Born on the twenty-first of May
Died, syphilis, forty-four on his birthday
Every second word he swore
Yes, he was the son of a whore
Always wanted by the law
Wouldn't you like to know?
Wouldn't you like to know, people?
Great King Rat was a dirty old man
And a dirty old man was he
Now what did I tell you?
Would you like to see?
Now hear this
Where will I be tomorrow?
Will I beg or will I borrow?
I don't care, I don't care anyway
Come on, come on, the time is right
The man is evil and that is right
I told you ah yes I told you
And that's no lie oh no no
Wouldn't you like to know?
Wouldn't you like to know?
Wouldn't you like to know?
Great King Rat was a dirty old man
And a dirty old man was he
Now what did I tell you?
Would you like to see?
Show me
Wouldn't you like to know?
Wouldn't you like to know, people, people?
Great King Rat was a dirty old man
And a dirty old man was he
Now what did I tell you?
Would you like to see?
Hit it!
Now listen, all you people
Put out the good and keep the bad
Don't believe all you read in the Bible
You sinners get in line
Saints you leave far behind
Very soon you're gonna be his disciple
Don't listen to what mama says
Not a word, not a word mama says
Or else you'll find yourself being the rival sure
The great Lord before He died
Knelt sinners by his side
And said "You're going to realize tomorrow"
No, I'm not gonna tell you
What you already know
'Cause time and time again
The old man said it all a long time ago
Come on, come on, the time is right
This evil man will fight
I told you once before
Wouldn't you like to know?
Wouldn't you like to know?
Just like I said before
Great King Rat was a dirty old man
And a dirty old man was he
The last time I tell you
Would you like to see?

Great King Rat (traducción LyricVerse Team)
El Gran Rey Rata murió hoy
Nacido el veintiuno de mayo
Murió, sífilis, cuarenta y cuatro en su cumpleaños
Cada segunda palabra que juraba
Sí, era hijo de una puta
Siempre buscado por la ley
¿No te gustaría saber?
¿No te gustaría saber, gente?
El Gran Rey Rata era un viejo sucio
Y un viejo sucio era él
¿Ahora qué te dije?
¿Te gustaría ver?
Ahora escucha esto
¿Dónde estaré mañana?
¿Mendigaré o pediré prestado?
No me importa, no me importa de todos modos
Vamos, vamos, es el momento adecuado
El hombre es malvado y eso está bien
Te lo dije, ah sí, te lo dije
Y eso no es mentira, oh no no
¿No te gustaría saber?
¿No te gustaría saber?
¿No te gustaría saber?
El Gran Rey Rata era un viejo sucio
Y un viejo sucio era él
¿Ahora qué te dije?
¿Te gustaría ver?
¡Muéstrame!
¿No te gustaría saber?
¿No te gustaría saber, gente, gente?
El Gran Rey Rata era un viejo sucio
Y un viejo sucio era él
¿Ahora qué te dije?
¿Te gustaría ver?
¡Dale!
Ahora escuchen, toda la gente
Saquen lo bueno y quédense con lo malo
No crean todo lo que leen en la Biblia
Pecadores, pónganse en fila
Santos, déjenlos muy atrás
Muy pronto van a ser sus discípulos
No escuchen lo que dice mamá
Ni una palabra, ni una palabra de lo que dice mamá
O si no, se encontrarán siendo el rival, seguro
El gran Señor antes de morir
Arrodilló a los pecadores a su lado
Y dijo "Mañana te darás cuenta"
No, no te voy a decir
Lo que ya sabes
Porque una y otra vez
El viejo lo dijo todo hace mucho tiempo
Vamos, vamos, es el momento adecuado
Este hombre malvado luchará
Te lo dije una vez antes
¿No te gustaría saber?
¿No te gustaría saber?
Justo como dije antes
El Gran Rey Rata era un viejo sucio
Y un viejo sucio era él
La última vez que te lo digo
¿Te gustaría ver?
