Burnt Out Town by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers
Lyrics & Translation
English
Yeah, uh-huh
I was walking down the street the other day
A woman stopped me
She said, "Why is it you look so down in the mouth?"
And I told her
This is a burnt-out town
It's full of dirty looks
There's ashes on main street
And the mayor is cooking the books
Why, even my best friends
Are turning into crooks
Yeah, this is a burnt-out town
New Emperor, same clothes
They're dancing on glass ceilings
While the filthy money flows
Yes, and here I am stealing gas
With a garden hose
Yeah!
Take that, honey!
That's right
This is a burnt-out town
The city fathers have come to blows
It's out of their realm of reality
The truth's indecent when exposed
Yeah, it's a burnt-out town
It's going down but no one knows
Yeah, it's a burnt-out town
Ain't dead but getting close

Burnt Out Town (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Sí, ajá
Estaba caminando por la calle el otro día
Una mujer me detuvo
Ella dijo: "¿Por qué te ves tan desanimado?"
Y le dije
Esta es una ciudad quemada
Está llena de malas miradas
Hay cenizas en la calle principal
Y el alcalde está falsificando las cuentas
Vaya, incluso mis mejores amigos
Se están convirtiendo en ladrones
Sí, esta es una ciudad quemada
Nuevo Emperador, la misma ropa
Están bailando sobre techos de cristal
Mientras el dinero sucio fluye
Sí, y aquí estoy robando gasolina
Con una manguera de jardín
¡Sí!
¡Toma eso, cariño!
Así es
Esta es una ciudad quemada
Los padres de la ciudad han llegado a los golpes
Está fuera de su ámbito de la realidad
La verdad es indecente cuando se expone
Sí, es una ciudad quemada
Se está hundiendo pero nadie lo sabe
Sí, es una ciudad quemada
No está muerta pero se acerca
