Por la ciudad [English translation]

I go through the city like an arrow without an iron lung

I'm learning everything without more than a little of love

Raise the curtains of my desires of laugh

Cover his mouth if he starts to argue

The flow takes me I'm a happy prawn 1

I have to grit the teeth if it comes from chameleon

Don't ask me anymore 'cause I don't wanna answer

I have little or nothing but a lot to give

I carry all kind of good, same and bad

I go full of confidence and respect to the others

I have a friendly group that stands my heart

Who are always with me, whether I'm right or wrong

What can we do if everything stays the same

We have to laugh a little because death is around

Let's talk about something that is funny for us all.

After so much smiling death will hold back

I'm no prophet, I'm just extremely patient

Who always goes openly, whether if is joy or pain

Or we go buy a wine and start to party

Or they take me to the niche and I end like an animal
