Lyrics
Si nos quieren conquistar,
tendran que quemarnos vivos.
Si nos quieren ver bailar,
a ritmo de cinco siglos.
Al cantar esta cancion tengo algo que contarles,
que desde ahora quiero ser dueño de mis pasos de baile.
Y bailando caballito con la banda cafecitos,
como no lo va a lograr?
Y bailando caballito con la banda cafecitos,
como no lo van a respetar?
Yo no me voy a matar,
por convicciones ajenas,
y si acaso alguien murio,
eso confirma la regla,
de que todas estas tendencias,
nunca nos llevan a nada,
de ahora en adelante,
mandalas para su casa.
Y bailando caballito con la banda cafecitos,
como no lo va a lograr?
Y bailando caballito con la banda cafecitos,
como no lo van a respetar?
Seremos capaces de bailar por nuestra cuenta?
seremos capaces de bailar?
basta ya de interrogar !
La gente dice que el baile,
solo es una diversion,
y artistas extranjeros,
se lleva la comision,
hoy quitare el miedo,
a sentirme en la vanguardia,
sin tener que ir a New York,
para ver alla que pasa.
Y bailando caballito con la banda cafecitos,
como no lo va a lograr?
Y bailando caballito con la banda cafecitos,
como no lo van a respetar?
Para que tirar la piedra,
no estoy libre de pecado,
con todos los mestizos,
tambien me maleducaron,
por que ya estoy grandecito,
para decidir mi vida,
quinientos años frustrados,
creo que ya fue gran medida
Y bailando caballito con la banda cafecitos,
como no lo va a lograr?
Y bailando caballito con la banda cafecitos,
como no lo van a respetar?
Seremos capaces de bailar por nuestra cuenta?
seremos capaces de bailar?
Seremos capaces de pensar por nuestra cuenta?
seremos capaces de pensar?
basta ya de interrogar!
basta ya de interrogar!
Lyrics translation
If they want to conquer us,
they'll have to burn us alive.
If they want to see us dance,
at the rate of five centuries.
As I sing this song, I have something to tell you.,
that from now on I want to own my dance steps.
And dancing little horse with the band cafecitos,
how can you not make it?
And dancing little horse with the band cafecitos,
how can they not respect him?
I'm not gonna kill myself.,
by other people's convictions,
and if someone died,
that confirms the rule,
that all these trends,
they never lead us to anything.,
from now on,
send them home.
And dancing little horse with the band cafecitos,
how can you not make it?
And dancing little horse with the band cafecitos,
how can they not respect him?
Will we be able to dance on our own?
will we be able to dance?
enough questioning !
People say the dance,
it's just a diversion.,
and foreign artists,
it takes the commission,
today I will remove the fear,
to feel at the forefront,
without having to go to New York,
to see what happens.
And dancing little horse with the band cafecitos,
how can you not make it?
And dancing little horse with the band cafecitos,
how can they not respect him?
Why throw the stone,
I am not free from sin,
with all the Mongrels,
I was also rude,
'cause I'm already big,
to decide my life,
five hundred years frustrated,
I think it was a big deal already.
And dancing little horse with the band cafecitos,
how can you not make it?
And dancing little horse with the band cafecitos,
how can they not respect him?
Will we be able to dance on our own?
will we be able to dance?
Will we be able to think on our own?
will we be able to think?
enough questioning!
enough questioning!
