I am the brick, that has been named
Along the alley, to the last corner stand
There, right there, I claim my patch
And set myself,  a coozy hut

Wine, beer, cider, whisky, nuts and crisp
Smoky zones, now set out side
My banquet laid, for wandering souls
To find a refuge, rescued here on my patch

Escaped men, from domestic chores
Escaped men, from troubled minds
Escaped men, of destitute hungers

Escaped men, to find their buoys voice
All scream out, loud at transmitting box
22 men, seen on playground pitch
Right here on my patch, they watched and roared

Juke box plays, gives dancing feet
An eruption of ballads, ...
Fuelled by a happy lico ..

On my last bell ring, ding don
Staggered men, fall out off my patch
Till tomorrow, when I open up my doors
I am the brick, that has been named

Vivir es caminar breve jornada,
Y muerte viva es, Lico, nuestra vida,
Ayer al frágil cuerpo amanecida,
Cada instante en el cuerpo sepultada:
Nada, que siendo, es poco, y será nada
En poco tiempo, que ambiciosa olvida,
Pues de la vanidad mal persuadida
Anhela duración, Tierra animada.
Llevada de engañoso pensamiento,
Y de esperanza burladora y ciega,
Tropezará en el mismo monumento,
Como el que divertido el Mar navega,
Y sin moverse vuela con el viento,
Y antes que piense en acercarse, llega.
