Ovo nije Amerika

Ovde smo, hej
Ovde smo
Pogledaj me, ovde smo
 
Još odavno kad ste vi stigli
Već su bili otisci naši cipela
Pokrali ste čak i hranu za mačke
I još uvek ližete tanjir
 
Baš sam besan na ove nezahvalnike
Danas jako udaram bubnjeve, dok me ne optuže za maltretiranje
Ako ne razumeš podatke, bacam ti ih kao kumbiju,
Bosa novu, tango ili valjenato
 
Drsko kao Kalabo i Bambu
Vrele krvi, kao Timbuktu
Mi smo na meniju
2Pac se zove Tupak po Tupaku Amaruu iz Perua
 
Amerika nije samo USA, tata
Ide od Ognjene zemlje sve do Kanade
Treba biti baš glup, baš tup
To je kao da kažeš da je Afrika samo Moroko
 
Ovi kreteni
Zaboravili su da kalendar koji koriste izmislili su Maje
Sa predkolumbijskom Valdivijom
Još odavno, ovaj kontinent korača
 
Ali ni sa celom mornaricom ne mogu skloniti sa polica
Podivljale seljake
Ovo je za poslovođu firme
Mačeta ne služi samo za sečenje trske
Služi i za sečenje glava
 
Ovde smo, oduvek smo tu
Nismo otišli, ne idemo
Ovde smo da te podsetimo
Ako hoćeš moja mačeta će te ujesti
Ovde smo, oduvek smo tu
Nismo otišli, ne idemo
Ovde smo da te podsetimo
Ako hoćeš moja mačeta će te ujesti
 
Ako hoćeš moja mačeta će te ujesti
Ako hoćeš moja mačeta će te ujesti
Ako hoćeš moja mačeta će te ujesti
Uješće te, uješće te
 
Paramilitarci, gerilci
Sinovi rata, bande
Crne liste, lažni pozitivci
Ubijeni novinari, nestali
 
Narko vlade, sve što su pokrali
Oni koji protestvuju i oni koji su zaboavili
Progoni, državni udari
Zemlja u bankrotu, izgnanici, obezvređen pezos
 
Trgovina drogom, karteli
Invazije, emigranti bez papira
Pet predsednika za jedanaest dana
Pucnjevi iz blizine od strane policije
 
Više od sto godina mučenja
Nova trova koja peva u jeku diktature
Mi smo krv koja izduvava atmosferski pritisak
Gambimo, moj brate, ovo jeste Amerika
 
Ovde smo, oduvek smo tu
Nismo otišli, ne idemo
Ovde smo da te podsetimo
Ako hoćeš moja mačeta će te ujesti
Ovde smo, oduvek smo tu
Nismo otišli, ne idemo
Ovde smo da te podsetimo
Ako hoćeš moja mačeta će te ujesti
 
Ako hoćeš moja mačeta će te ujesti
Ako hoćeš moja mačeta će te ujesti
Ako hoćeš moja mačeta će te ujesti
Uješće te, uješće te
 

Come Live

Shaped as a honeycomb, or like a fishbone
We'll make a home the way we like
We'll put the bed on the floor
And worry about your backache in the beyond1
We'll take all the steps with our heads to the north
Our legs 10 degrees to the southeast
 
Come live like I do
Come live like I do
Come live like I do
How is it that you're not moving?
How is that possible?
 
Then we'll smoke cigarettes
So that mom and dad don't come to our place
We'll eat everything out of canned jars
Drink beer and go shopping at the discount store
 
Come live like I do
Come live like I do
Come live like I do
How is it that you're not moving?
How is that possible?
 
We'll put a record on the turntable
Kisses in the kitchen, kisses in the parlor, kisses in the garage
We'll have 120 children
All with peculiar names
And I'll sing them a song
One of those pretty ones that makes them fall asleep
 
Come live like I do
Come live like I do
Come live like I do
Come live like I do
Come live like I do
Come live like I do
Come live like I do
Come live...

Palestine

Far away in the Middle East, like a wounded buffalo
The American pirate is raging
But in the fields and on the dunes, even the children are armed
And every woman carries a rifle
No, we are not afraid of the tanks of Israel:
You must liberate your land!
 
We have raised the red, green, white and black,
Holding the flag in our fists: the colors of Al Fatah
We have raised the partisan flag of the red Palestine
Alongside that of Vietnam!
 
The newspapers of the bosses1 call them 'bandits'
The same who called the partisans 'murderers'
We won't believe the Israeli bulletins
Nor the traitor tyrant from Jordan
How many times they told us 'It's over in Palestine'?
Yet still we sing the song
 
Beyond this sea there is a fraternal people:
Every struggle helps another struggle,
Every shot fired on the Zionist enemy
Strikes too those who are in command in Italy.
The people in revolt are what moves History forward today,
Revolution until victory!2

And the band goes on

Once upon a time there was a group of friends in the neighborhood
They had a band that had never played
And they wanted to play, so they would not work
 
And they hardly ever rehearsed they got straight to it
They were very cheeky and very out of tune
And they sounded bad, and we played all the same
 
And at the end of the show who would have thought
The audience cheered, they asked for one more
And at the end of the show (hey) who would have thought
The audience cheered, they asked for one more
 
And the band goes on playing
And the band goes on singing
And the band goes on playing
And the band goes on singing
 
La, la-ra, la-ra, la-ra
La, la-ra, la-ra, la-ra
La, la la la la la la, la la
Hey, hey
 
And they left the neighborhood, brave mercenaries
They went on to win over any stage
At the Festipunk-punk-punk-punk-punk-punk-punk
And at the Tropical
 
At a Bar Mitzvah or live at Luna Park
Everyone was having fun, they asked for one more
At a Bar Mitzvah (hey) and live at Luna Park
Everyone was having fun, they asked for one more
 
And the band goes on playing
And the band goes on singing
And the band goes on playing
And the band goes on singing
La, la-ra, la-ra, la-ra
La, la-ra, la-ra, la-ra
La, la la la la la la, la la
Hey, hey
 
Through the hundred Buenos Aires neighborhoods

It's You I Love

The morning loves the light of the day
And the night loves to be with the moon
The song loves its melody
And luck loves its fortune
 
Kings love their castles
The soldier loves his rifle
The stars love to shine
The beer loves its barrel
 
Language loves its idioms
And the rain loves the clouds
The perfume loves the aroma
What goes down loves what goes up
 
The stomach loves its food
The future loves its seer
The sailboat loves what the wind brings
The path loves its destiny
Everybody here loves something - but
 
It's you I love, you, you, you, you
It's you I love, you, you, you, you
But it's you I love, you, you, you, you
But I love you, you, you, you, you
 
The billy goats love their does
Histories love tales
Books love words
Ideas love thoughts
 
Painters love colors
Summer loves the sun so much
Bees love flowers
Rice loves its bean
 
Thieves don't love robbing
Life loves staying alive
Lungs love breathing
Those below love going up
 
Verse loves its poet
Freshwater loves dolphins
The galaxy loves its planets
And the end wants to finish
Everybody here loves something - but
 
It's you I love, you, you, you, you
It's you I love, you, you, you, you
But it's you I love, you, you, you, you
But I love you, you, you, you, you
 
Eyes love viewing the scenery
Lions love their jungle
Backs love their massages
And the return loves coming back
 
The peasant loves his machete
Our body loves its skeleton
The stuffed animal loves to be squeezed
Silence loves its secret
 
Breakfast loves its coffee
Darkness loves its lantern
Believers love to have faith
Adventures love to have legs
 
I don't need to have everything
I'm moving although the world is still
I learned to walk with my elbows
But with you I feel complete
You, you
You, you
 
It's you I love, you, you, you, you
It's you I love, you, you, you, you
But it's you I love, you, you, you, you
But I love you, you, you, you, you
 
It's you I love, you, you, you, you
It's you I love, you, you, you, you
But it's you I love, you, you, you, you
But I love you, you, you, you, you
 

Today

Versions: #2
Today, today, today1
I'm going to conquer you
Although you're from Venus and I'm from Mars
The wizard of the witches has arrived
If you're water and I'm soap, let's make bubbles
 
Today, we're a couple of monkeys
I'm the pistol and you're the lead
My little flower, here I come with the fertilizer
I'm your John Lennon2 and you're my Yoko Ono3
 
Today I'll devour you
Today the hen found the rooster with the golden eggs
The cow has the bull by the horns
Today I fell in love before the chorus started
Before the chorus started
Today I fell in love before the chorus started
Before the chorus started
Today I fell in love
 
Today, today, today
Today, today, today, today
Today, today, today
Today, today, today, today
 
Today, we complete each other, my sweetheart
You're the lemon, I'm whiskey with ice
We complete each other, no problems
Like barbecue sauce with chicken wings
 
Today, each one brings their condiment
You put down the blocks, I'll mix the concrete
Today what I want is for you to move
To get new words out of me
 
Today I'll devour you
Today the hen found the rooster with the golden eggs
The cow has the bull by the horns
Today I fell in love before the chorus started
Before the chorus started
Today I fell in love before the chorus started
Before the chorus started
Today I fell in love
 
Today, today, today
Today, today, today, today
Today, today, today
Today, today, today, today
Today, today, today
Today, today, today, today
 
Your butt cheeks giving me a concert
And I melt like chocolate in the desert
Thigh to thigh, skin to skin
You've got to get honey out of that honeycomb
 
Today, the lame move their legs
Today, even the rats dance without cheese
Nobody gets tired, nobody gets worn out
Here they dance even with a broken hip
 
Today I'll devour you
Today the hen found the rooster with the golden eggs
The cow has the bull by the horns
Today I fell in love before the chorus started
Before the chorus started
Today I fell in love before the chorus started
Before the chorus started
Today I fell in love

Fear of Faces

'Life is short'
I read it on a shirt
Go after your dreams
Not afraid of faces
Take off the mask
That conceals the planet
Throw the 3x4 picture in the trash
And go live in the sea
 
But, on the other hand,
There are responsibilities
Ethical and social ones
There are medicines, cars, academics, cops
 
'Life is short'
I read it on a shirt
I'll tell you I love you
Not afraid of faces
I'll pack up
And live in another planet
Time goes fast along the way
Without asking us
 
Love is so much bigger
As we're coming out
The whole world wakes up and says
'We feel like home'
 
But in this life
We also need to be old-fashioned
Deep within, we all live
Between the paper and the pen
Every person is like
A dot in the planet
Someday it gets tired
And makes everyone swim
 
In this sea of people
There are some who don't like each other
And they like not liking
There are sins and priests who fight in MMA
 
Life is short
To be afraid of faces
Unmask the world
And put this shirt on
Allow your soul
To discover another planet
Get our ashes in the fire pit and throw them into the sea
Into the sea

I like her

I like girls with split ends,
the cars without the fines
I like those jobs where you sweat a lot,
I also like the lunch break
I like laughter and streamers,
bare feet in the middle of the fields
 
But on everything and everyone, on everything and everyone
I like her, and I like her
and I would like her to see me,
that she thought exactly like me
 
If she likes cooking, I will become a kitchen
I'll be the sun, if she likes the morning
If she likes her house, I will be near her,
I'll become grapes, if she likes wine
If she likes to walk when it rains a lot,
I'll be someone else's umbrella
If she likes flying ...
 
On everything and everyone
I like her, I like her
and I would like her to see me,
that she thought exactly like me
 
I like her and I like her
I like her and I like her
and I would like her to see me,
that she thought exactly like me
I like her and I like her
and I would like her to hear me,
that she thought exactly like me
I like songs with sad ends.
 
Thanks a lot for your attention!

A Teddy Bear From Taiwan

Versions: #2
In your eyes I see a lake
Where a fairy undresses
So the sun can adore her
The melancholy of the afternoon
Has taken my heart
And it clouds up with doubt
 
It’s in those moments
That one reflects
And a storm alights
Everything is so tranquil
That silence announces the noise
Of the calm before the storm
 
Suddenly I can’t breathe
I need a bit of freedom
For you to distance yourself from my side
For you to leave me alone
 
It’s always been my way of being
Don’t try to understand me
There is nothing to be done
I’m a little paranoid, I’m sorry
 
After a while I begin to miss you
It worries me that I could lose you
I need you to be close to me
To feel the warmth of your body
 
A teddy bear from Taiwan
A nutshell in the sea
Soft like a fur rug
Delicious like milk caramel
 
In my bed, an angel sleeps
Sighing mouth agape
Amongst clouds of cotton
With the morning light
Reason awakens
And doubt dawns
 
It’s in those moments
That one reflects
And a storm alights
Everything is so tranquil
That silence announces the noise
Of the calm before the storm
 
Suddenly I can’t breathe
I need a bit of freedom
For you to distance yourself from my side
For you to leave me alone
 
It’s always been my way of being
Don’t try to understand me
There is nothing to be done
I’m a little paranoid, I’m sorry
 
After a while I begin to miss you
It worries me that I could lose you
I need you to be close to me
To feel the warmth of your body
 
A teddy bear from Taiwan
A nutshell in the sea
Soft like a fur rug
Delicious like milk caramel
 

Shooting Star

Ah, if I could tell you
What I feel, love
How much pain I feel
Of not being able to see you
Not being able to have you
 
Ah, if I could understand
What life does
Twists and turns it brings
And I can't see you
And I can't have you
 
I look up at the sky
And make a wish
On a piece of paper
I write my secret
That it's easy to figure out
 
Come a little bit closer to me
Cause I'm going to tell you
 
World, why don't you stop for a second
So I can tell you a secret?
I won't keep my fingers crossed
 
World, isn't it absurd
That distant star that I see
is the same one he sees?
 
Ah, if I could tell you

Zvezda padalica

Poljubiti te i nikada
Nikada ne zatvoriti oči
Da mi ne bi promakao nijedan trenutak sve ljubavi koja si
Hranim se tvojim dahom
Da bih pratio miris i najkraću ulicu koja vodi do tebe
Jer ako bi pobegla među milion zvezda, ja bih zasigurno znao
Prepoznati te svaki put kada ih nebo upali i bio bih
 
Bio bih tu da ti se divim
Bio bih tu da te čuvam
Svaki put kada postaneš zvezda padalica za mene
Uvek i samo za mene
Uvek i samo ja i ti
Uvek
 
Nasmejati te, znaš
Je kao upaliti Sunce
Je kao slušati, diviti se miru i snazi reke
Jer ako bi pobegla među milion zvezda, ja bih zasigurno znao
Prepoznati te svaki put kada ih nebo upali i bio bih
 
Bio bih tu da ti se divim
Bio bih tu da te čuvam
Svaki put kada postaneš zvezda padalica za mene
Uvek i samo za mene
Uvek i samo ja i ti
Uvek
 
Bio bih tu da ti se divim
Bio bih tu da te čuvam
Svaki put kada postaneš zvezda padalica za mene
Uvek i samo za mene
Uvek i samo ja i ti
Uvek
 

Mr Vicepresident

Mr Vicepresident, (how brave...) sorry that I don't address you as tú,
I address my brothers, my friends and my people as tú
and Usted have mocked artfully of my trust,
so why to treat you with the 't' in the initial,
if You don't deserve treat nor family salute.
 
Mr Vicepresident, (double agent...) don't vice preside me,
even if an ordinary employment is not so easy to find for you,
maybe as substitute goalkeeper or making counterfeit CDs
or better as carpenter with your cutting saw.
 
Mr Vicepresident how stupid is to treat the others as stupids,
(Seriously and face to face I say it)
make up your mind with certainty if you're passive or active.
(Soon, don't be so hesitating)
Mr Vicepresident, I suggest you another adjective
call yourself straight Mr Vice Negative.
 
Mr Vicepresident, (I'm angry...) sorry that I don't screw you,
but a good curse makes you more decent
and you sir, decency has failed you lately,
so why to curse you with the 'c' in the initial,
if You aren't worthy for me to make an effort by damning you.
 
Mr Vicepresident, don't vice betray me,
Don't crawl as a snake conspiring in the corners
Better get a job and clean your broken pride,
though who will help you as helper or copilot.
 
Mr Vicepresident, by now I say goodbye
(With respect, the one you didn't have with me)
or saying correctly, I stay, you are gone...
(like a bat out of hell of the ship)
Because the vote of the people doesn't go to the oblivion.
Mr Vicepresident, you are who says goodbye.
 
Mr Vicepresident...
How does it feel...
Mr Vicepresident...
Incoherent...
Repelent, depressing, enough.

Red hot skull

For your death.
 
Avoiding patrols
of the sick night,
lukewarm morning in the plains,
standing in legs.
 
Under the sun my red hot skull
tried to understand,
and the register of the past time,
to keep my mind awake.
 
I live the exile of the native
under the grey conqueror magics.
That still traffic fear
like gauchos to the desert yesterday.
 
I wake up on the roads
of the dead land.
I watch myself near my brothers
sick of miseries
and stripped of any right
by the white empire.
 
Who in the exile of the native
rose the cult of the great fear.
That still atrophy lives
like in the witty Falklands war.
 
My red hot skull
tried to understand,
It wasn't empty,
my red hot skull.
 
Thousand of immigrants
make the city.
They mutated the native,
removing his place.
 
They sew death
all over the extension
of this infected land
without sense or reason.

President

You paint everything in colors
instead of black and white
 
A truck spits smog
a plague of people is called demonstration
the ambulance wonders which is its mission
if killing the one who still lives or to give him air
 
Of what colour is our president
green, white or red is the present
Of what colour is our president
green, white or red is the present
 
And a dog killed by betrayal
wanders the streets again now in the stomach
of all those who ate without seeing
that fine gourmet stew of the station
 
And the bark of the dead in question
becomes a scream, a curse
that our caged nose by notion
liberates the traffic that paralizes the nation
