Tropico De Cancer
Como es que te vas Salvador
de la compañia si todavia hay mucho verdor.
Si el progreso es nuestro oficio
y aun queda por ahi mucho Indio
que no sabe lo que es vivir en una ciudad...
Como la gente.
Que no ves que eres un puente
entre el salvajismo y el modernismo.
Salvador el ingeniero,
Salvador de la humanidad.
Esta muy bien lo que tu piensas
pero por que no,
tu te acuerdas
que la nuestra es una civilización muy avanzada...
Como dice la gente.
Que no ves que nuestra mente
no debe tomar en cuenta:
ecologistas, indigenistas,
retrograditas, y humanistas.
Hay mis ingenieros
civiles y asociados,
no crean que no me duele
irme de su lado,
pero es que yo pienso
que ha llegado el tiempo
de darle lugar
a los espacios sin cemento.
Por eso yo ya me voy.
No quiero tener nada que ver
con esa fea relación de acción,
Construcción,
Destrucción,
Ahha.
Como es que te vas Salvador
de la compañia si todavia hay mucho verdor.
Hay mis compañeros petroleros mexicanos,
no crean que no extraño el olor a óleo puro.
Pero es que yo pienso que nosotros los humanos,
no necesitamos
mas hidrocarburos.
Por eso yo ya me voy.
No quiero tener nada que ver
Con esa fea relación de acción,
Construcción,
Destrucción,
Ahha.
Por eso yo ya me voy.
No quiero tener nada que ver...
Por eso yo ya me voy.
No quiero tener nada que ver...
Tropic of Cancer
How is it that you leave Salvador
from the company if there is still so much greenery.
If progress is our job
and there are still many Indians out there
who don't know what it's like to live in a city...
Like the people.
Don't you see that you are a bridge
between savagery and modernism.
Salvador the engineer,
Savior of humanity.
It's all well and good what you think
but why don't you,
do you remember
that ours is a very advanced civilization...
As people say.
Don't you see that our minds
should not take into account:
ecologists, indigenous people,
backward thinkers, and humanists.
Oh my civil engineers
and associates,
don't think it doesn't hurt me
to leave your side,
but I think
that the time has come
to make room
for spaces without cement.
That's why I'm leaving.
I don't want to have anything to do
with that ugly cycle of action,
Construction,
Destruction,
Ahha.
How is it that you leave Salvador
from the company if there is still so much greenery.
Oh my Mexican oil company colleagues,
don't think I don't miss the smell of pure oil.
But I think that we humans,
we don't need
more hydrocarbons.
That's why I'm leaving.
I don't want to have anything to do
with that ugly cycle of action,
Construction,
Destruction,
Ahha.
That's why I'm leaving.
I don't want to have anything to do...
That's why I'm leaving.
I don't want to have anything to do...
