Living Well Is The Best Revenge by R.E.M.
Lyrics & Translation
English
It's only when your poison spins into the life you'd hoped to live
That suddenly you wake up in a shaking panic - wow!
You set me up like a lamb to slaughter
Garbo as a farmer's daughter
Unbelievable, the gospel according to who?
I lay right down.
All your sad and lost apostles hum my name and flare their nostrils
Choking on the bones you toss to them
Well I'm not one to sit and spin
'Cause living well's the best revenge
Baby, I am calling you on that
Don't turn your talking points on me, history will set me free
The future's ours and you don't even read the footnote now!
So who's chasing you? Where did you go?
You disappeared mid-sentence
In a judgement crisis I see my anecdote for it
You weakened shell.
All your sad and lost apostles hum my name and flare their nostrils
Choking on the bones you toss to them
Well I'm not one to sit and spin
'Cause living well's the best revenge
Baby, I am calling you on that
You savour your dying breath
Well, I forgive but I don't forget
You work it out, let's hear that argument again
Camera three... GO NOW!
All your sad and lost apostles hum my name and flare their nostrils
Choking on the bones you toss to them
Well I'm not one to sit and spin
'Cause living well's the best revenge
Baby, I am calling you on that
Baby, I am calling you on that
Baby, I am calling you on

Living Well Is The Best Revenge (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Es solo cuando tu veneno se entrelaza con la vida que esperabas vivir
Que de repente te despiertas en un pánico tembloroso - ¡guau!
Me preparaste como un cordero al matadero
Garbo como la hija de un granjero
Increíble, ¿el evangelio según quién?
Me acosté de inmediato.
Todos tus apóstoles tristes y perdidos tararean mi nombre y dilatan sus fosas nasales
Ahogándose con los huesos que les arrojas
Bueno, no soy de los que se quedan sentados a dar vueltas
Porque vivir bien es la mejor venganza
Cariño, te estoy desafiando en eso
No uses tus argumentos contra mí, la historia me liberará
¡El futuro es nuestro y tú ni siquiera lees la nota al pie ahora!
¿Entonces quién te persigue? ¿Adónde fuiste?
Desapareciste a mitad de la frase
En una crisis de juicio veo mi anécdota para ello
Tú, cáscara debilitada.
Todos tus apóstoles tristes y perdidos tararean mi nombre y dilatan sus fosas nasales
Ahogándose con los huesos que les arrojas
Bueno, no soy de los que se quedan sentados a dar vueltas
Porque vivir bien es la mejor venganza
Cariño, te estoy desafiando en eso
Saboreas tu último aliento
Bueno, perdono pero no olvido
Resuélvelo, escuchemos ese argumento de nuevo
Cámara tres... ¡VE AHORA!
Todos tus apóstoles tristes y perdidos tararean mi nombre y dilatan sus fosas nasales
Ahogándose con los huesos que les arrojas
Bueno, no soy de los que se quedan sentados a dar vueltas
Porque vivir bien es la mejor venganza
Cariño, te estoy desafiando en eso
Cariño, te estoy desafiando en eso
Cariño, te estoy desafiando
