Menos dos alas lyrics Joaquin Sabina

Menos dos alas


González era un ángel menos dos alas
Gonzalez era un santo por lo civil
un dandy con un ojo a la funerala
tan rojo, tan castizo y tan zascandil.

Hilaba en los garitos de mala nota.
Boleros de Machín con Juanín de Mieres
Apurando esos whiskys en los que flotan
La luna de las golfas y los crupieres.

Cuando volvía del extranjero
tan forastero,
a las dos no era de día,
a las seis ya era de noche,
pídame un coche,
fumando espero
y le aplaudían los camareros.

Otoños y otras luces, pan con verbenas
su príncipe de Gales, tan Cortefiel
Tratado de urbanismo, Juan de Mairena
chicana, magdalena, tinta y papel.

Verde por la vergüenza que no tenía,
hasta ayudó a Caronte a quemar sus naves,
decía que morirse no era tan grave
y agonizó en voz baja por cortesía.

Cuando volvía del extranjero
tan forastero,
a las dos no era de día,
a las seis ya era de noche,
pídame un coche,
fumando espero
y le aplaudían los camareros.

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

Joaquín Sabina (nato Joaquín Ramón Martínez Sabina il 15 luglio 1949 a Úbeda, Spagna) è uno dei cantautori più influenti e amati della musica latina. Conosciuto per la sua poesia incisiva, le melodie accattivanti e la voce rauca, Sabina ha conquistato un pubblico vastissimo in tutta l'America Latina e nel mondo ibero-parlante. ???? Il suo percorso musicale inizia negli anni '60 con esperienze in gruppi rock e cantautori spagnoli. Nel 1975 pubblica il suo primo album, "Inventario", che lo introduce al pubblico spagnolo. Negli anni successivi, Sabina consolida la sua fama con album come "Malas compañías" (1982), "19 días y 500 noches" (1984) e "El viaje" (1989). Le sue canzoni spesso trattano temi sociali, politici e personali, sempre con un tocco di ironia e sarcasmo. Sabina è noto per le sue collaborazioni con altri artisti come Joan Manuel Serrat, Fito Páez e Miguel Ríos. Tra i suoi brani più famosi ricordiamo "Y nos dieron las diez", "La Mandrágora", "Contigo" e "Pajarita de papel". Oltre alla musica, Sabina è anche un poeta di talento, con diverse raccolte di versi pubblicate.
