El Porque
José Larralde
The Reason
Blessed be the one who made the reason
For apologies of the evils
If you want to know it
Ask and then tell me
Because I am right
That I am wrong
That I have a missing buttonhole
That I have an extra button
Because yes, because I am
Because no, I am leaving
Because I am, because I give
Because I was
Ask the unfortunate one
The reason for his misfortunes
The reason will come out
Like a pig in the cornfields
Go and tell the boss
Why he doesn't give you a raise
Damn it! If he has studied it
He might even let you go happily
Ask the woman
When she loves the man more
If she can answer you
There will be nothing to surprise you
It's time for you to think
About the reason for your existence
Don't let the ballad
Repeat itself to you
That I'm leaving, that I'm leaving
That I'm leaving, that I'm leaving
