Canciones y almas
Callejeros Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Que te vendiste, que te compran
Que te cogen, que te tienen de esclavo
Mira que culo que tuvieron estos
Putos que vivien aca al lado
Y para adentro me pregunto pato
Que es lo que habra pasado?

Que me moria por tocar rocanrol
Y ahora que puedo algunos me
Estan fusilando te la creiste
Las entradas son muy caras
Te subiste al caballo, despues los ves
Pagar el doble por un show
Que no vale 10 centavos

Es que mientras haya mundo habra
Caretas que la van a seguir boqueando, y mientras
Tanto yo sueño contra todos los que hablan
Y no viven pa' seguirla agitando

Si todo crece crecera lo bueno y
Lo malo de la mano, y en esta hoguera
De canciones y almas nos iremos quemando
Es que la gente que nos crea sueños




No creera lo que hago, porque este súeño es
La razon de mi vida para seguir soñando
