Andrés Calamaro — Todas son iguales song lyrics and translation

The page contains the lyrics and English translation of the song "Todas son iguales" by Andrés Calamaro.

Lyrics

Todas las canciones son iguales
Y parece que hablan siempre de lo mismo ya
Pero igual existe un abismo entre las canciones y la realidad
¿Cuál es?
Están las que dan la sensación
De poder detener el tiempo por un instante
Y cargan el espíritu de gente extraña
A un corazón ausente no se le engaña
También hay y parece broma un repertorio en otro idioma
Canciones que no leemos y solamente tiramos
Hace mucho que aprendimos y nos acostumbramos
A escuchar palabras que nunca entendemos
Tanto que no sabemos si entendemos ni siquiera las de este idioma
Fuera, de broma, hay canciones lo suficientemente heroicas
Paran los relojes con el pensamiento de alguien
Entonces ya se para qué sirve escribir canciones y canciones
Todo el tiempo
Es para seguir buscando
Para seguir encontrando preguntas a ninguna respuesta
Si está esta pregunta, no quiero saberlo nunca
Prefiero seguir sin saber, sin darme cuenta
Sin darme cuenta

Lyrics translation

All songs are the same
And it seems that they always talk about the same thing already
But still there is an abyss between songs and reality
What is it?
There are those that give the feeling
To be able to stop time for an instant
And they carry the spirit of strange people
An absent heart is not deceived
There is also and seems to joke a repertoire in another language
Songs we don't read and just throw away
It's been a long time since we learned and got used to it
To hear words we never understand
So much so that we do not know if we understand even those of this language
Outside, as a joke, there are songs heroic enough
Stop the clocks with someone's thought
Then I know what it's for to write songs and songs
All the time
It's to keep looking
To continue finding questions to no answer
If there is this question, I never want to know
I'd rather go on without knowing, without realizing it
Without realizing it
