Something Big by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers
Lyrics & Translation
English
It didn't feel like Sunday, didn't feel like June
When he met his silent partner in that lonely corner room
That over looked the marquee of the plaza all-adult
And he was not looking for romance, just someone he could trust
And it wasn't no way to carry on
It wasn't no way to live
But he could put up with it for a little while
He was working on something big
Speedball rang the night clerk, said "Send me up a drink"
The night clerk said "It's Sunday man, wait a minute, let me think
There's a little place outside of town might still have some wine"
Speedball said, "Forget it, can I have an outside line?
And it wasn't no way to carry on
It wasn't no way to live
But he could put up with it for a little while
He was working on something big
It was Monday when the day maids found the still-made bed
All except the pillows that lay stacked up at the head
And one said, "I know I've seen his face, I wonder who he is"
The other said, "It's probably just another clown working on something big"
And it wasn't no way to carry on
It wasn't no way to live
But he could put up with it for a little while
He was working on something big
Yeah, and it wasn't no way to carry on
It wasn't no way to live
But he could put up with it for a little while
He was working on something big

Something Big (traducción LyricVerse Team)
No parecía domingo, no parecía junio
Cuando conoció a su socio silencioso en esa solitaria habitación de esquina
Que daba a la marquesina de la plaza solo para adultos
Y no buscaba romance, solo a alguien en quien pudiera confiar
Y no era forma de seguir así
No era forma de vivir
Pero podía soportarlo por un tiempo
Estaba trabajando en algo grande
Speedball llamó al recepcionista nocturno, dijo "Súbame una bebida"
El recepcionista nocturno dijo "Es domingo, hombre, espera un minuto, déjame pensar"
"Hay un pequeño lugar fuera de la ciudad que quizás todavía tenga vino"
Speedball dijo, "Olvídalo, ¿puedo tener una línea externa?"
Y no era forma de seguir así
No era forma de vivir
Pero podía soportarlo por un tiempo
Estaba trabajando en algo grande
Era lunes cuando las camareras de día encontraron la cama aún hecha
Todo excepto las almohadas que estaban apiladas en la cabecera
Y una dijo, "Sé que he visto su cara, me pregunto quién es"
La otra dijo, "Probablemente es solo otro payaso trabajando en algo grande"
Y no era forma de seguir así
No era forma de vivir
Pero podía soportarlo por un tiempo
Estaba trabajando en algo grande
Sí, y no era forma de seguir así
No era forma de vivir
Pero podía soportarlo por un tiempo
Estaba trabajando en algo grande
