Quiero vivir en la ciudad [English translation]

The grey blocks of concrete here and there

give the shape to the scenery of my city

I wanna live in the city

I wanna live in the city

I wanna live in the city

I like to be surrounded of people,

people I don't know making an environment,

where everybody sees me and nobody feels me

I wanna live in the city

I wanna live in the city

Even if at one nobody can walk

Even if at six pm nobody can breath

Even if at ten on the street I risk my life

I wanna live in the city

I wanna live in the city

And I won't ever live, I'm not happy

but here are my reasons to live

I wanna live in the city

I wanna live in the city

I like the car lights

a million garlands decorate the night

they're fleeting stars on an asphalt sky

I wanna live in the city

I wanna live in the city

Even if at one nobody can walk

Even if at six pm nobody can breath

Even if at ten on the street I risk my life

I wanna live in the city

I wanna live in the city
