Lyrics
Recordes quan vivíem a Nou Barris en un pis a sobre el forn
Al cul del món
I era un lloc de merda però nosaltres li trobàvem cert encant
Per molt que et sembli estrany
I sortíem cada nit entre setmana encara que
Mai teníem un duro per gastar
El món als nostres peus, ens menjarem la nit
El món als nostres peus, ens menjarem la nit
I quan ens van tallar la llum i l’aigua perquè sempre anàvem tard
A l’hora de pagar
I subsistíem a base de pizzes i fideus precuinats, de sabors orientals
I agafàvem l'últim metro a l’L4 a Llucmajor
Sense tenir molt clar on aniríem a parar
El món als nostres peus, ens menjarem la nit
El món als nostres peus, ens menjarem la nit
Ai, curiosa és la nostàlgia, que ens fa recordar amb «carinyo»
Un pis infestat de cuques del tamany de dinosaures
I tot mirant enrere, aquelles nits de borratxera
Una parada ràpida al Marsella i després al Fellini o a l’Apolo o a on fos
Les rambles eren nostres, canaletes fins al mar
La nit semblava eterna i el futur era brillant
El món als nostres peus, ens menjarem la nit
El món als nostres peus, ens menjarem la nit
…ens menjarem la nit
…ens menjarem la nit!
Lyrics translation
Do you remember when we lived in New Quarters in a flat on the oven
In the ass of the world
And it was a place to fuck but we were certain charm
For a lot of that looks weird to you
And we were going out every night during the week though
Ever had a tough to spend
The world at our feet, we eat the night
The world at our feet, we eat the night
And when we were cut off electricity and water because they always were late
At the time of pay
And subsistíem to the base of pizzas and noodles cooked, flavours oriental
And we took the last metro to the L4 in Llucmajor
Without having very clear where we would go to stop
The world at our feet, we eat the night
The world at our feet, we eat the night
Ai, curious is the nostalgia that makes us remember with affection»
An apartment infested with bugs the size of dinosaurs
Even looking back, those nights of binge
A quick stop in Marseilles and then to Fellini, or the Apollo, or where it would be
The ramblas were our gutters to the sea
The night seemed eternal and the future was bright
The world at our feet, we eat the night
The world at our feet, we eat the night
...we eat the night
...we eat the night!
