Bacilos Lyrics
Después de un buen rato de esperar
"¿Qué desea usted señor?"
¿Qué voy a querer?, Pensé
Una mesa cerca del balcón
"Solo se puede pasar
Si va usted a comer"
Pobre camarero en realidad
Su reflejo ve mi piel
Y pierdo valor
Es la vieja historia de este mundo colonial
"Siga usted, patrón
¿Qué le sirvo hoy?"
Y así van tantos años
Y así tanta mediocridad
Haciendo nuestras vidas
Al modelo confundido
De una Europa que aquí nunca pudo ser
(Es cuestión de madera, oh, oh)
La fibra del corazón
De las ganas en los huesos por seguir
(Es cuestión de madera, oh, oh, oh, oh)
Siga usted, patrón
¿Qué le sirvo hoy?
No puedo ni quiero convencer
Al camarero de que diablos soy
Me parezco tanto a él
Nunca va a entender, nunca va a comprender
Que su sangre es del color
De un nuevo amanecer
Y así van tantos años
Y así tanta mediocridad
Haciendo nuestras vidas
Al modelo confundido
De una Europa que aquí nunca pudo ser
(Es cuestión de madera, oh, oh)
No se puede negociar
Más que estilo es solo ser lo que se es
(Es cuestión de madera, oh, oh, oh, oh)
Siga usted, patrón
¿Qué le sirvo hoy?
(Es cuestión de madera, oh, oh)
La fibra del corazón
De las ganas en los huesos por seguir
(Es cuestión de madera, oh, oh, oh, oh)
Siga usted, patrón
¿Qué le sirvo hoy?
Y así van tantos años
Y así tanta mediocridad
Haciendo nuestras vidas
Al modelo confundido
De una Europa que aquí nunca pudo ser
(Es cuestión de madera, oh, oh)
La fibra del corazón
De las ganas en los huesos por seguir
(Es cuestión de madera, oh, oh, oh, oh)
Siga usted, patrón
¿Qué le sirvo hoy?
(Es cuestión de madera, oh, oh)
No se puede negociar
Más que estilo es solo ser lo que se es
(Es cuestión de madera, oh, oh, oh, oh)
Siga usted, patrón
¿Qué le sirvo hoy?
