Lyrics
¡Qué hacés, qué hacés,
que de repente te has parao,
y no querés
saber de amigos del pasao!
Será tal vez
que tu patrón se descuidó,
o puede ser
que alguna herencia te tocó...
¡Qué hacés, qué hacés!
que de la barra disparás
y te creés
el 'nene lindo de mamá'...
¡Qué plato, che,
cuando te gritan en el barrio:
Adiós, Novarro,
Qué hacés, qué hacés!

Por cuatro mangos que han llovido,
Dios sabe cómo, te has engrupido...
Pensás que sos un diputao,
y sólo sos
un gil a cuadros empilchao...
Por esos locos berretines
también cambiaste de apellidos...
¡Ya no sos Pérez Gilines!
¡Sos Nito Anchorena Unzué!
¡Qué hacés, qué hacés
con ese dique de bacán!

Te la has piyao
que hasta las uñas te pintás...
Si todos, che,
te vimos siempre laburar
bien engrasao,
vendiendo cachos de fainá...
¡Qué hacés, qué hacés!
que en vez de chao decís 'gut nai',
y 'madmossells'
a las pebetas vos llamás...
¡Qué plato, che,
cuando te dice alguna chica:
Adiós, Mojica,
¡Qué hacés, qué hacés!
English translation
What are you doing, what are you doing?
you've suddenly stopped,
and you don't want
to know about friends from the past!
Maybe it's because
that your boss got careless,
or maybe
that some inheritance touched you...
What are you doing, what are you doing!
you shoot from the bar
and you think you're
you think you're 'mommy's pretty boy'...
What a dish!
when they shout at you in the neighborhood:
Goodbye, Novarro,
What are you doing, what are you doing!

For four bucks that have rained,
God knows how, you've become fat...
You think you're a congressman
and you're just
a checkered gilch...
Because of those crazy bollocks
you've changed your surname too...
You are no longer Pérez Gilines!
You are Nito Anchorena Unzué!
What are you doing, what are you doing
with that bacán dam!

You've got it so bad
that you even paint your nails...
Yes, we all, hey,
we've always seen you working
well greased,
selling chunks of fainá...
What are you doing, what are you doing!
that instead of 'goodbye' you say 'gut nai',
and 'madmossells
you call 'pebetas'...
What a dish!
when some girl calls you:
Goodbye, Mojica,
What are you doing, what are you doing!
