No soy un fulano
con la lágrima fácil,
de esos que se quejan sólo por vicio.
Si la vida se deja yo le meto mano
y si no aún me excita mi oficio,
y como además sale gratis soñar
y no creo en la reencarnación,
con un poco de imaginación
partiré de viaje enseguida
a vivir otras vidas,
a probarme otros nombres,
a colarme en el traje y la piel
de todos los hombres
que nunca seré:
Al Capone en Chicago
legionario en Melilla
pintor en Montparnasse.
Mercenario en Damasco
costalero en Sevilla
negro en Nueva Orleans.
Viejo verde en Sodoma
deportado en Siberia
sultán en un harén.
¿Policía? ni en broma
triunfador de la feria
gitanito en Jerez.
Tahur en Montecarlo
cigarrillo en tu boca
taxista en Nueva York.
El más chulo del barrio
tiro porque me toca
suspenso en religión.
Confesor de la reina
banderillero en Cádiz
tabernero en Dublín.
Billarista a tres bandas
insumiso en el cielo
dueño de un cabaret.
Arañazo en tu espalda
tenor en Rigoletto
pianista de un burdel.
Bongosero en la Habana
casanova en Venecia
anciano en Shangri La.
Polizón en tu cama
vocalista de orquesta
mejor tiempo en Le Mans
Cronista de sucesos
detective en apuros
conservado en alcóhol.
Violador en tus sueños
suicida en el viaducto
guapo en un culebrón.
Morfinómano en China
desertor en la guerra
boxeador en Detroit.
Cazador en la India
marinero en Marsella
fotógrafo en Play Boy.
Pero si me dan a elegir
entre todas las vidas, yo escojo
la del pirata cojo
con pata de palo
con parche en el ojo,
con cara de malo,
el viejo truhán, capitán
de un barco que tuviera
por bandera
un par de tibias y una calavera.
Joaquín Sabina (born Joaquín Ramón Martínez Sabina on July 15, 1949 in Úbeda, Spain) is one of the most influential and beloved singer-songwriters in Latin music. Known for his incisive poetry, catchy melodies, and raspy voice, Sabina has captivated a vast audience throughout Latin America and the Spanish-speaking world. His musical journey began in the 1960s with experiences in rock bands and Spanish singer-songwriters. In 1975, he released his debut album, "Inventario", which introduced him to the Spanish public. Over the following years, Sabina solidified his fame with albums such as "Malas compañías" (1982), "19 días y 500 noches" (1984) and "El viaje" (1989). His songs often address social, political, and personal themes, always with a touch of irony and sarcasm. Sabina is known for his collaborations with other artists such as Joan Manuel Serrat, Fito Páez, and Miguel Ríos. Some of his most famous songs include "Y nos dieron las diez", "La Mandrágora", "Contigo" and "Pajarita de papel".
