The Diary of Horace Wimp

JEFF LYNNE

Lyrics Translation

Late again today, he'd be in trouble though he'd say he was sorry, he'd have to hurry out to the bus

Horace was so sad, he'd never had a girl that he could care for, and if he was late once more, he'd be out

Don't be afraid, just knock on the door,
Well he just stood there mumblin and fumblin'
Then a voice from above said-
Horace wimp,this is your life,
Go out and find yourself a wife,
Make a stand and be a man,
And you will have a great life plan

Horace met a girl, she was small and she was very pretty, he thought he was in love, he was afraid

Asks her for a date, the café dowm the street tomorrow evening, his head was reeling, when she said Yes, O K

Don't be afraid, just knock on the door,
Well he just stood there mumblin' and fumblin'
Then a voice from above said-
Horace wimp,this is your life,
Go out and find yourself a wife,
Make a stand and be a man,
And you will have a great life plan

Horace, this is it, he asks the girl if maybe they could marry, when she says gladly,
Horace cries

Everybody's at the church, when Horace rushes in and says Now here comes my wife,for the rest of my life, and she did

Don't be afraid, just knock on the door,
Well he just stood there mumblin and fumblin'
Then a voice from above said-
Horace wimp,this is your life,
Go out and find yourself a wife,
Make a stand and be a man,
And you will have a great life plan

Hacia el bus

Nunca tuvo una chica
Para cuidar
Y si él llega tarde una vez más
Él se va, oh-oh

No tengas miedo
Toca esa puerta
Y él se quedó ahí
Revuelto, murmurando
Y una voz más arriba

[Coro]

Ve y busca una esposa linda

Házte valer, un hombre sé
Y una gran vida vas a tener"
(Puedes hacerlo)

Se asustó, oh-oh

Él le pidió salir
Al café por la calle
Mañana tarde
Su cabeza giraba
Cuando dijo, "Sí, okay"

Toca esa puerta
Y él se quedó ahí
Revuelto, murmurando
Y una voz más arriba

[Coro]
Dijo, "Horace Wimp, ésta es tu vida
Ve y busca una esposa linda
(Vamos, Horace)
Házte valer, un hombre sé
Y una gran vida vas a tener"
(Puedes hacerlo)
(Vamos, Horace)

Todos en la iglesia están
Cuando entra Horace
Y dice, "Viene mi esposa linda
Por el resto de mi vida"
Y así fue

No tengas miedo
Toca esa puerta
Y él se quedó ahí
Revuelto, murmurando
Y una voz más arriba

[Coro]
Dijo, "Horace Wimp, ésta es tu mujer
A tu vida da un amanecer
(Vamos, Horace)
Házte valer, un hombre sé
Y una gran vida vas a tener"
