Y mi banda toca el rock
And my band plays rock
Y lo demás cuando lo piden
And the rest when they ask for it
Sabemos bien que aquí
We know well that here
Hacer de todo lo exigen
They demand to do everything
Y es un rock bambino
And it's a rock bambino
Un sabor más bien latino
A flavor more Latin, indeed
Esta música es esperanza
This music is hope
Esta música es pasión
This music is passion
Si es como un tren que ha pasado
It's like a train that has passed
Con un cargo de emociones
With a load of emotions
Nos pasó en la estación
It happened to us at the station
Pero dormíamos sentados
But we were sleeping while sitting
Y mi banda toca el rock
And my band plays rock
Por qué nos ve y porque no puede
Why it sees us and why it can't
Y porque falta reír
And because we miss laughter
Por correr tras su quimera
For chasing after its dream
Y no despierten, no, todavía no
And don't wake up, no, not yet
Y no nos paren no, no, no, todavía no
And don't stop us, no, no, no, not yet
Y mi banda toca el rock
And my band plays rock
Y cambia cada cuando lo piden
And it changes whenever they ask
Desde que entras el mismo
Since you entered the same
Casi siempre lo exigen
They almost always demand it
Lo esperan en la colina
They wait for it on the hill
Con la música latina
With the Latin music
Nos verán también bailando
They'll see us dancing too
Y mil vueltas van buscando
And a thousand twists are searching
Nos espera en la frontera
It waits for us at the border
Con el auto bloqueado
With the car blocked
Mas el rock habrá pasado
But the rock will have passed
La música ha llegado
The music has arrived
Es un rock, bambino
It's rock, baby
Un sabor mas bien latino
A flavor more Latin, indeed
Y así su pasaporte
And so her passport
Lo seguimos corriendo fuerte
We keep running strong
Que penetra en los muros
That penetrates the walls
Hace brecha en la puerta
It makes a gap in the door
Hasta el fondo el te dice
He tells you all the way to the bottom
Que tu alma no está muerta
That your soul is not dead
Y no despierten no, todavía no
And don't wake up, no, not yet
Y no nos paren no, no,no, todavía no
And don't stop us, no, no, not yet
Y mi banda toca el rock
And my band plays rock
Es una eterna salida
It's an eternal escape
Llega bien en ondas medias
It comes through just right on medium waves
Y en frecuencia modulada
And on frequency modulation
Es un rock bambino
It's a rock, baby
Un sabor mas bien latino
With a flavor that's quite Latin
Esta música es esperanza
This music is hope
Esta música es pasión
This music is passion
Si es como un tren que ha pasado
Like a train that's already passed
Con un cargo de emociones
Carrying a load of emotions
Nos pasó en la estación
It happened to us at the station
Pero dormíamos sentados
But we were sleeping seated
Y mi banda toca el rock
And my band plays the rock
Por qué nos ve y porque no puede
Why does it see us and can't
Y porque falta reír
And why does laughter run away
Por correr tras su quimera
For chasing its chimera
Y no despierten no, todavía no
And don't wake us up, no, not yet
Y no nos paren no, no, no, todavía no
And don't stop us, no, no, no, not yet
Y no despierten no, todavía no
And don't wake us up, no, not yet
Y no nos paren no, no, no, todavía no
And don't stop us, no, no, no, not yet
