Lyrics

Se mojan los labios para saborear
Lo que haya de bueno que esté por llegar
Y ese humo de la vida hay que saber respirar
Para no ser del montón
Negros, de cualquier color
Y abren sus bocas para bostezar
Esos que en lo oscuro sí saben pecar
Y luego a hurtadillas se cansan de espiar
Para no ser del montón
Negros, de cualquier color
Se excitan los cuerpos que no han de encontrar
Jamás otro cuerpo que les siente igual
Al ritmo de un beso que no se va a dar
Para no ser del montón, somos negros
Negros, de cualquier color
Y dan el abrazo para no olvidar
Que siendo del pueblo te vas a encontrar
Con gente viajera que va mas allá
Para no ser del montón
Negros, de cualquier color
Se tensan los arcos que van a lanzar
Las flechas que al blanco un día acertarán
Pero mientras tanto, habrá que esperar
Para no ser del montón
Negros, de cualquier color
Y sabe el más tonto dar la vuelta al refrán
Que a quien Dios ayuda no ha de madrugar
Y que quien te quiere no te hará llorar
Para no ser del montón
Negros, de cualquier color

Lyrics translation

They wet their lips to taste
Whatever's good is coming
And that smoke of life you have to know how to breathe
Not to be from the crowd
Black, of any colour
And they open their mouths to yawn
Those who in the dark know how to sin
And then sneakily they get tired of spying
Not to be from the crowd
Black, of any colour
They excite the bodies they don't have to find
Never another body that feels the same
To the beat of a kiss that will not be given
Not to be a bunch, we're black.
Black, of any colour
And give the hug not to forget
That being from the village you will find
With traveling people who go beyond
Not to be from the crowd
Black, of any colour
They tighten the bows they are going to throw
Arrows that will one day hit the target
But in the meantime, we'll have to wait
Not to be from the crowd
Black, of any colour
And the dumbest one knows how to turn the proverb around
That whom God helps should not be up early
And who loves you won't make you cry
Not to be from the crowd
Black, of any colour
