CANCIÓN PARA LOS HIJOS DE CORRUPTOS...

The Idiot Bastard Son (no necesito traducir...), del álbum We're Only In It For The Money (tampoco...) del músico norteamericano Frank Zappa, lanzado en 1966... hace 42 años...
The idiot bastard son
the father's a nazi in Congress today
the mother's a hooker somewhere in L.A.

The idiot bastard son
abandoned to perish in back of a car
Kenny will stash him away in a jar
the idiot boy!
Try and imagine
the window all covered in green
all the time he would spend
at the church he'd attend . . .
warming his pew...

Kenny will feed him and Ronnie will watch
the child will thrive and grow
and enter the world
of liars and cheaters and people like you
who smile and think you know
what this is about

You think you know everything... maybe so
the song we sing
do you know?
we're listening...
the idiot boy!
Try and imagine
the window all covered in green
all the time he would spend
all the colors he'd blend...
where are they now?
