El ball de la gent "rara"
Skaparapid Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

No sé, no sé que passa que el mal d'almansa encara ens alcança
Ha passat ja molt de temps i el poble pateix peste del botiflers
És la peste dels Borbons que el poble pateix per qüestions depoder
És la peste dels Borbons que el poble pateix per qüestions depoder

Mentre el poble aguanta i les seves penes cantant espanta
I s'alça quan ja està cansat de tant suportar el pal i la fam
Balla per a disfrutar que un dia vindrà i tindrà que lluitar
Balla que un dia vindrà i tindrà que lluitar sense ser derrotat

Balla pels nostres companys que per lluitar son empresonats
De la pilona el malas pulgas, del princesa i el kasal
Canta per les nostres veïnes que la punta estan ocupant
Resistint front a les maquines i a la pressió policial

Balla, balla, el ball de qui no para
Balla, balla, el ball de la gent rara
Canta, canta, el cant de la resistència
Canta, canta, el cant de la dissidència

Boti, boti, madero el qui no boti
Boti, boti, feixista el qui no boti
Boti, boti, boti, George Bush el qui no boti
Boti, boti, boti, botifler el qui no boti

Boti, boti, madero el qui no boti
Boti, boti, feixista el qui no boti
Boti, boti, boti, George Bush el qui no boti
Boti, boti, boti, botifler el qui no boti

Boti, boti, madero el qui no boti
Boti, boti, feixista el qui no boti




Boti, boti, boti, George Bush el qui no boti
Boti, boti, boti, cotino el qui no boti
