Lyrics
Es que madre aún no habló con abuela
Y sus hermanos ya no saben qué hacer
Su papá lo llevó a la escuela
y ya nunca lo volvieron a ver
Cartucho no se hizo mucho problema
Se fue a la puta con Silvita, su amor
No le dijeron nada a nadie y se fueron a Niteroi
El viaje fue divino por las rutas argentinas
Durmieron en la calle, en las Shells y en un camión
Tomaron colectivos y en Clorinda
cruzaron el río con dos malandras
Tomaron cerveza e hicieron el amor
Así fueron pasando los días
Y yo sé bien que jamás pensaron en volver atrás
Escribamos un mensaje o llamemos a tu hermana
Ella lo sabrá entender, es una piba legal
querían ver a la nave espacial de Niemayer
Que vieron el domingo en la revista de Clarín
La noche que llegaron a Ipanema se tiraron a dormir
Entonces pasó lo que pasó
El mar se puso bravo
Levantaron olas de 1200 metros
Y así fue que Río de Janeiro desapareció.
(Gracias a diana por esta letra)
Lyrics translation
Is that mother hasn't spoken to grandma yet
And his brothers don't know what to do anymore
His dad took him to school.
and they never saw him again
Cartridge was not made much trouble
She went to the whore with Silvita, her love
They didn't say anything to anyone and went to Niteroi
The trip was divine on the Argentine routes
They slept in the street, in the Shells and in a truck
They took collectives and in Clorinda
they crossed the river with two rascals
They drank beer and made love
That's how the days went by
And I know well that they never thought of going back
Let's write a message or call your sister
She'll know how to understand, she's a legal Chick
they wanted to see Niemayer's spaceship
That they saw on Sunday in Clarin's magazine
The night they arrived in Ipanema they went to sleep
Then what happened happened
The sea got angry
Raised waves of 1200 meters
And so it was that Rio de Janeiro disappeared.
