Sad Professor by R.E.M.
Lyrics & Translation
English
If we're talking about love
Then I have to tell you
Dear readers, I'm not sure where I'm headed.
I've gotten lost before.
I've woke up stone drunk
Face down in the floor.
Late afternoon, the house is hot.
I started, I jumped up.
Everyone hates a bore.
Everybody hates a drunk.
This may be a lit invention
Professors muddled in their intent
To try to rope in followers
To float their malcontent.
As for this reader,
I'm already spent.
Late afternoon, the house is hot.
I started, I jumped up.
Everyone hates a sad professor.
I hate where I wound up.
Dear readers, my apologies.
I'm drifting in and out of sleep.
Long silence presents the tragedies
Of love. Note the age. Get afraid.
The surface hazy with attendant thoughts.
A lazy eye metaphor on the rocks.
Late afternoon, the house is hot.
I started, I jumped up.
Everyone hates a bore.
Everybody hates a drunk.
Everyone hates a sad professor.
I hate where I wound up.
I hate where I wound up.

Sad Professor (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Si estamos hablando de amor
Entonces tengo que decirte
Queridos lectores, no estoy seguro de adónde me dirijo.
Me he perdido antes.
Me he despertado completamente borracho
Boca abajo en el suelo.
Tarde, la casa está caliente.
Empecé, me levanté de un salto.
Todo el mundo odia a un aburrido.
Todo el mundo odia a un borracho.
Esto puede ser una invención literaria
Profesores confundidos en su intención
Para intentar atraer seguidores
Para hacer flotar su descontento.
En cuanto a este lector,
Ya estoy agotado.
Tarde, la casa está caliente.
Empecé, me levanté de un salto.
Todo el mundo odia a un profesor triste.
Odio donde terminé.
Queridos lectores, mis disculpas.
Estoy entrando y saliendo del sueño.
El largo silencio presenta las tragedias
Del amor. Nota la edad. Ten miedo.
La superficie borrosa con pensamientos concomitantes.
Una metáfora de ojo vago en las rocas.
Tarde, la casa está caliente.
Empecé, me levanté de un salto.
Todo el mundo odia a un aburrido.
Todo el mundo odia a un borracho.
Todo el mundo odia a un profesor triste.
Odio donde terminé.
Odio donde terminé.
