And What About Happiness?

¿Y La Felicidad Qué?

It's like fighting in a queueEs que pelear en una cola
Buy yourself a gunComprarte una pistola
Living aloneVivir a solas
And what about happiness?¿Y la felicidad qué?

Yelling at your partnerGritarle a tu pareja
Ignore your old ladyIgnorar a tu vieja
When he advises youCuando te aconseja
And what about happiness?¿Y la felicidad qué?

Complaints, complaintsQuejas, quejas
And what about happiness?¿Y la felicidad qué?

Stealing from your familyRobar a tu familia
To look with envyMirar con envidia
Everything annoys youTodo te fastidia
And what about happiness?¿Y la felicidad qué?

Working without restTrabajar sin descansar
Having sex and not lovingTener sexo y no amar
CriticizeCriticar
And what about happiness?¿Y la felicidad qué?

Never say good morningNunca dar los buenos días
Living in monotonyVivir en la monotonía
And what about happiness?¿Y la felicidad qué?

As time goes by, youth comes to an endConforme pasa el tiempo, la juventud se termina
And you don't notice it until you lose half your lifeY no lo notas, hasta que pierdes la mitad de tu vida
Without having felt the simple and special thingsSin haber sentido las cosas simples y especiales
Like your people, whom you only hugged at ChristmasComo a tu gente, que abrazaste solo en navidades

Then pride and selfishness take overPues te invaden el orgullo y el egoísmo
Working every day so you can get drunk on SundaysTrabajando a diario pa' emborracharte los domingos
Or in the worst case scenario, watching TV in that chairO en el peor de los casos, viendo tele en esa silla
Until you realize that your youngest daughter is already wearing makeup, yesHasta que te das cuenta que tu hija menor ya se maquilla, sí

Life is a blink of an eyeLa vida es un parpadeo
Where the goal is to be happy, at least that's how I see itDonde la meta es ser feliz, al menos así yo lo veo
We worry about stupid things and forgetNos preocupamos por estupideces y olvidamos
That when we die we only take with us what we enjoyedQue al morir solo llevamos lo que disfrutamos

And that's becauseY es que
This lifeEsta vida
All we need is loveAll we need is love
All we need is hopeAll we need is hope
It's just for a little while, yesEs un ratico, sí
All we need is loveAll we need is love
Take advantage of itAprovéchala
Live it, live itVívela, vívela
All we need is loveAll we need is love
All we need is hopeAll we need is hope
It's just for a little while, yesEs un ratico, sí

I swear it seems like only yesterday I was playing with a spinning topJuro que me parece ayer cuando jugaba perinola
It seems like it was half an hour agoPareciera que fue hace media hora
Time is the engineEl tiempo es la locomotora
Fastest known so farMás rápida conocida hasta ahora

That's why we must make the most of our timePor eso debemos aprovechar las horas
Anyone who has feltTodo el que haya sentido
The pain of a deceased loved oneEl dolor de un ser amado fallecido
He will be convinced of what I tell you todayEstará convencido de lo que hoy le digo

I try to find reasonsTrato 'e buscar motivos
Tell me why we are aliveQue me respondan por qué estamos vivos
And after many sleepless nightsY después de muchas noches sin dormir
I have understood thatHe comprendido que

All we need is loveAll we need is love
All we need is hope, yeahAll we need is hope, yeah
All we need is love, sonAll we need is love, son
All we need isAll we need is

All we need is loveAll we need is love
All we need is hope, yeahAll we need is hope, yeah
All we need is love, sonAll we need is love, son
All we need isAll we need is

I remember what the love of my life saidRecuerdo lo que dijo el amor de mi vida
The day her mother just lost hersEl día en que su madre justamente perdió la suya
He said we worry about trivial thingsDijo que nos preocupamos por tonterías
Nonsense that destroys happinessTonterías que hacen que la felicidad se destruya

It's that happiness has been confused with excessive moneyEs que se ha confundido la felicidad con dinero en exceso
While life slips away without turning backMientras la vida se escapa sin retroceso
Today, kissing in public places is not allowedHoy no se pueden dar besos en lugares públicos
Where it is possible to campaign for politiciansDonde sí se puede hacer campaña a los políticos

If we study it, we notice that love is secondarySi lo estudiamos notamos que el amor es segundo plano
Except for love for what we have, of courseExcepto el amor por lo que tengamos, claro
Like the car, the house, and all that stuffComo el carro, la casa y toda esa paja
That we won't be able to take with us when we sleep in the boxQue no nos podremos llevar cuando durmamos en la caja

And that's becauseY es que
