Horse To Water by R.E.M.
Lyrics & Translation
English
I could have kept my head down
I might have kept my mouth shut
I should have held my own,
You lead a horse to water and you watch him drown.
You're only as big as your battles.
Rattle my cage with your shadow.
I'm a phantom-weight with a mouth full of feathers,
Don't you know that what comes around goes around?
I'm not that easy,
I am not your horse to water.
I hold my breath I come around, round, round.
Don't darken my doorstep again,
You're mixing up living in chin-chin,
You're mixing up lose with win-win,
You lead a horse to water and you watch him drown.
You stumble on glass top table,
TV's chewing shock-gone cable
Pump me up a beanstalk fable
And I'll call this entertainment
'cause Humpty's falling down.
I'm not that easy,
I am not your horse to water.
I hold my breath I come around, round, round.
Pick a fight an ultra-buzzy bubble
Friday night fuckin' fried-up pub crawl
Phantom-weight with a mouth full of feathers,
Don't you know that what comes around goes around?
I'm not that easy,
I am not your horse to water.
I hold my breath I come around, round, round.
It's not that easy
I am not your horse to water
I hold my breath, I come around, round, round
It's going down, down, down
This runaround, round, round
Is bound to pound
The daylights out of you!

I could have kept my head down
I might have kept my mouth shut
I should have held my own,
You lead a horse to water and you watch him drown.
You're only as big as your battles.
Rattle my cage with your shadow.

Don't you know that what comes around goes around?

Horse To Water (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Podría haber mantenido la cabeza baja
Podría haber mantenido la boca cerrada
Debería haberme defendido,
Llevas un caballo al agua y lo ves ahogarse.
Eres tan grande como tus batallas.
Sacude mi jaula con tu sombra.
Soy un peso fantasma con la boca llena de plumas,
¿No sabes que lo que va, vuelve?
No soy tan fácil,
No soy tu caballo para llevar al agua.
Contengo la respiración, doy vueltas y vueltas.
No oscurezcas mi puerta de nuevo,
Estás confundiendo vivir en chin-chin,
Estás confundiendo perder con ganar-ganar,
Llevas un caballo al agua y lo ves ahogarse.
Tropiezas en una mesa de cristal,
La televisión masticando un cable sin señal,
Cuéntame una fábula de tallo de frijol
Y a esto lo llamaré entretenimiento
porque Humpty se está cayendo.
No soy tan fácil,
No soy tu caballo para llevar al agua.
Contengo la respiración, doy vueltas y vueltas.
Busca una pelea, una burbuja ultra-zumbante
Una borrachera de bares jodidamente descontrolada de viernes por la noche
Peso fantasma con la boca llena de plumas,
¿No sabes que lo que va, vuelve?
No soy tan fácil,
No soy tu caballo para llevar al agua.
Contengo la respiración, doy vueltas y vueltas.
No es tan fácil
No soy tu caballo para llevar al agua
Contengo la respiración, doy vueltas y vueltas
Se está yendo abajo, abajo, abajo
Este rodeo, rodeo, rodeo
Está destinado a golpear
¡Te va a dejar sin aliento!
