Rodéo [English translation]

You've fallen backside first into the trap, Cowboy

This is your first cry

And everyone applauds

It feels good, but it hurts

You come across mummy

Rodeo

This is real life, not heaven

You can't sink any lower than this

This is real life, not heaven

You can't sink any lower than this

This is real life, not heaven
