Yo Soy Su Papá
Sui Generis Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
yo soy su papá.
Es que nunca lo entenderán,
yo soy su papá.
Váyanse en su tren
y distingan en lugar de ver.
Esta no es mi canción,
No será la desilusión
la que baila aquí.
Si es que todos cantan en sol,
¿por qué canto en mi?
Son dos tonos, no más,
pero en el arte de percibir
la distancia es igual
que la de aquí a Marte.
Yo soy su papá
sólo soy su papá.
Yo soy su papá.
Váyanse en su tren
y distingan en lugar de ver.
Esta no es mi canción,
tampoco es la de todos.
Yo soy su papá
sólo soy su papá.
Yo soy su papá.
