Mi Generacion
Yo naci con mis vecinos
Cuando hablar era un peligro
Alla en el 73
Y creci mirando un cielo
Que ya no parece eterno
Ni con hierba ni con fe
Me enseñaron de pelado
que Dios solo muestra un lado
y se le reza en inglés.
De mi casa hasta Unicentro
nunca tuve mucho tiempo
para preguntar por qué
Es la historia de mi generación
Decime [decime], decime a dónde vamos?
Mi ciudad ya no es la misma canción
Presiento que este cuento no acabó.
Se tomaron la embajada
Se tomaron el palacio
Yo los vi en televisión
Yo tomaba Chocolisto
Y eschuchaba a Lucho Herrera
Coronarse campeón
Cuando ya me enamoraba
Las muchachas escuchaban
dizque rock en español
Y las bombas reventaban
Mientras tanto redactaban una gran constitución
Es la historia de mi generación
Decime [decime] decime a donde vamos?
Mi cuidad ya no es la misma canción
Presiento que este cuento no acabó
Yo naci con mis vecinos
Cuando hablar era un peligro
Alla en el 73
Y aunque pase mucho tiempo
juraremos no estar viejos
para amarnos otra vez.
My Generation
I was born with my neighbors
When speaking was a danger
Back in '73
And I grew up looking at a sky
That no longer seems eternal
Not with grass nor with faith
They taught me as a kid
That God only shows one side
And you pray to Him in English
From my house to Unicentro
I never had much time
To ask why
It's the story of my generation
Tell me [tell me], tell me where are we going?
My city is no longer the same song
I feel like this story hasn't ended
They took the embassy
They took the palace
I saw them on TV
I drank Chocolisto
And listened to Lucho Herrera
Crowning himself champion
When I was falling in love
The girls were listening
to supposedly Spanish rock
And the bombs were exploding
While they were drafting a great constitution
It's the story of my generation
Tell me [tell me] tell me where are we going?
My city is no longer the same song
I feel like this story hasn't ended
I was born with my neighbors
When speaking was a danger
Back in '73
And even if a lot of time passes
We'll swear not to be old
To love each other again.
