En la cabeza tengo un clavo estaba la mesa llenita qué era aquello? espi?
Nunca es muy temprano y nunca es demasiado
y no hay ninguna droga mala para mí.
Hasta los chaperos te llaman traidor
eres la vergüenza de la profesión,
tumbado todo el día en tu sofá,
para un poco quieto y ponte a la sombra Tomás.
