Control
N.I.M.R.O.D Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Lo quieres en tu equipo
No cómo rival
Lo conocen todos
Amigo de unos pocos
No hace nada mal
Es un animal
Criado por las ratas
Jurando en cuarteles
Esquiva conductas
Y él está, fuera de control
Y él está, fuera de control
Y él está, fuera de control
Fiarse de nadie
Dudando de todos
La ley de la selva
Ciudades de lodo
No te preocupes
No te lo esperes
No necesita

Y él está, fuera de control
Y él está, fuera de control
Y él está, fuera de control
Fuera, fuera de control
Fuera, fuera de control
