Un vermut (por favor) Lyrics English Translation by David Rees
Let’s say it’s Sunday
And you get a call
Let’s say it wasn’t the one you were waiting for
Let’s keep something in mind
Those of us with hot blood
Let’s remember that way everything is lived more intensely
Love won’t always be the one to blame
But everything in life, baby, has a solution
A vermouth, please, I’m getting dry (Dry)
And it’s the only thing that cures me right now
A vermouth, please, please (Uh-uh), the Sun is asking me for it
It’s brought us all together to be in this together
A gilda to go with it (Here)
Nice and spicy and nice and salty
Like that heart (That heart)
Like that heart that doesn’t know how to love (Another)
Let’s say it’s afternoon
And the thing has stretched out (What do you say?)
Let’s say nobody wants to check the time (Five, six, and seven)
Let’s see what’s waiting for us
Start off harmless
Let’s see how fun it is, when we flow through life
I’ve got my people by my side, I don’t need much more
Maybe we’ve even forgotten why we came (Why, why?)
A vermouth, please, I’m getting dry (Dry, dry)
And it’s the only thing that cures me right now
A vermouth, please, please (Uh-uh), the Sun is asking me for it (Uh-uh)
It’s brought us all together to be in this together
Babe, can you hear me? I’ve got my headphones on
Yeah, yeah, chill
What happened?
Nothing, the usual, man
She called me again and already ruined my day
Now she says
Stop, stop, stop (Uh-uh), David, have you seen what a day it is?
Look, let’s do this, we’ll meet at one, in La Latina, get ourselves looking good
Pf, I don’t know, eh
Yeah, a few vermouths, some gildas, you know, with its anchovy, its little pepper, its everything
You sure? (Uh-uh)
Of course, damn
Tell these guys, have them come, and we’ll turn the day around, okay?
A gilda to go with it
Nice and spicy and nice and salty
Like that heart that doesn’t know how to love
Another gilda to go with it
That cuts me right in half
Like that call, which more than a call, was a dagger
