Lyrics
Esta es la cosa más extraña que ha surgido en todo el continente americano
Es un muro perfecto, una máquina ciega, un laberinto borgiano
Puede ser sutil o transparente, a veces una bestia prepotente
Pero no intentes ponértele al frente, pues si te acercas te aplasta
No hay movimiento, no hay acción ni beneficio, no hay transa, no has transa,
no hay transa
No hay lugar donde no alcanza su gran tenaza omnipresente
Es un reptil que se multiplica
No vales nada si no formas parte de algún engranaje
No vales nada de día
No vales nada sin su protección en la noche
No vales nada de noche
Por más que intelectuales lo disecten este dinosaurio no se muere
Y cuando en algún lado pierde con la otra mano arrebata
Y no se muere
Y no se muere
Y solamente la gente lamenta
Cuando amenaza con llevarse la paz
Es un reptil que se multiplica
No vales nada si no formas parte de algún engranaje
No vales nada de día
No vales nada sin su protección en las noches
No vales nada de noche
¿De quién es la paz? ¿De quién es la paz? ¿De quién es la esperanza?
Esta es la cosa más extraña que ha surgido en el continente americano
Lyrics translation
This is the strangest thing that has arisen in the entire American continent
It's a perfect wall, a blind machine, a Borgian maze
It can be subtle or transparent, sometimes a domineering Beast
But don't try to put him in front of you, because if you come near it crushes you
No movement, no action, no profit, no transa, no transa,
no transa
There is no place where he does not reach his great omnipresent tongs
It's a reptile that multiplies
You're worthless if you're not part of some gear.
You're not worth a day.
You're worthless without his protection at night.
You ain't worth nothing at night.
No matter how many intellectuals dissect it, this dinosaur doesn't die.
And when somewhere loses with the other hand snatches
And he doesn't die
And he doesn't die
And only people regret
When he threatens to take the peace
It's a reptile that multiplies
You're worthless if you're not part of some gear.
You're not worth a day.
You're worthless without his protection at night.
You ain't worth nothing at night.
Whose peace is it? Whose peace is it? Whose hope is it?
This is the strangest thing that has arisen on the American continent
