Lyrics
Half of My Name
It changes every batch, mi amor, always something new.
Two halves of my name, one always the same
One that keeps on changing with every game
Lot number,
birthday,
the day I must go
Two halves of my name and the whole world will know
Every box I write in gets its number on the door
Searchable in one big book, they never lose the score
Half of me is steady as the trumpet's steady horn
Half of me is different every time that I am born
Two halves of my name
One always the same
One that keeps on changing
With every game Lot number, birthday
The day I must go
Two halves of my name
And the whole world will know
Uno, uno para siempre
Otro cada vez Half of me is constant
Half begins again
Two halves of my name, one always the same
One that keeps on changing with every game
Lot number, birthday,
the day I must go
Two halves of my name
And the whole world will know
Two halves,
me a more One name
