No pintamos nada [English translation]

We have no voice on this, we have no opinion

They always decide, but they never ask us

They say a great battle is in the works

East against West, and our houses wrecked into pieces

Ready, ready

Everything is ready to begin shooting

Ready, ready

Let's go everyone, ready, this is going to begin

We have no voice on this, we ask for nothing

There's going to be a big party, and then there will be nothing

They say a great battle is in the works

East against West, and our houses wrecked into pieces

Ready, ready

Everything is ready to begin shooting

Ready, ready

Let's go everyone, ready, this is going to begin

Look at what oafs they are

They're going to fight each other to death

And here we are caught in between

Without being involved

Look at what scumbags they are

Playing at being men

With tanks, battles,

Conquests, and the putting-on of medals

Ready, ready

All is ready for firing

What can you do if you went to get out of here?

What can you do if you want to survive?

Look at what oafs they are

They're going to fight each other to death

And here we are caught in between

Without being involved

Look at what scumbags they are

Playing at being men

With tanks, battles,

Conquests, and the putting-on of medals

What can you do if you went to get out of here?

What can you do if you want to survive?
