Madrid [English translation]

[Chorus:]

Some have been born in Gambia

and others in Beijing

and I have been born in Madrid

And this isn't a trauma nor pride for me

because they didn't let me choose

oh, Madrid

A city of tar

iron cement and crystal

In Madrid

There are large shadows

of building above me

under my feet I feel rising Madrid

oh, Madrid

It has become too big and too small for me

so that there is only room to come and go

to Madrid

And you will not survive

if you don't function on gas

In Madrid (x4)

Some people can not withstand it

but without smoke I don't know how to breathe,breathe

some people

some people

some people can not withstand it

but without smoke I don't know how to breathe

in Madrid
