  1. No bombardeen Buenos Aires, no nos podemos defender

    Don't bomb Buenos Aires, we can't defend ourselves

  2. Los pibes de mi barrio se escondieron en los caños

    The kids from my neighborhood hid in the pipes

  3. Espían al cielo, usan cascos, curten mambos

    They spy on the sky, wearing helmets, getting high

  4. Escuchando a Clash, oh, escuchando a Clash

    Listening to Clash, oh, listening to Clash

  5. Estoy temiendo al rubio ahora, no a quién temeré después

    I'm fearing the blonde one now, I don't know who I'll fear next

  6. Terror y desconfianza por los juegos

    Terror and distrust from the games

  7. Por los tranzas, por los canas, por las panzas, por las ansias

    From the deals, from the cops, from the bellies, from the yearnings

  8. Por las rancias cunas de poder, cunas de poder, cunas de poder

    From the stale cradles of power, cradles of power, cradles of power

  9. Si querés escucharé a la B.B.C

    If you want, I'll listen to the B.B.C

  10. Aunque quieras que lo hagamos de noche

    Even if you want us to do it at night

  11. Y si quieres darme un beso alguna vez

    And if you want to give me a kiss someday

  12. Es posible que me suba a tu coche

    It's possible that I'll get in your car

  13. Pero no bombardeen Buenos Aires

    But don't bomb Buenos Aires

  14. No quiero el mundo de Cinzano, no tengo que perder la fe

    I don't want the world of Cinzano, I don't have to lose my faith

  15. Quiero treparte pero no pasa nada

    I want to climb you but nothing happens

  16. Ni siquiera puedo comer un bife y sentirme bien, sentirme bien

    I can't even eat a steak and feel good, feel good

  17. Tengo hambre, tengo hambre, tengo miedo

    I'm hungry, I'm hungry, I'm scared

  18. Los ghurkas siguen avanzando, los viejos siguen en TV

    The Ghurkas keep advancing, the old ones are still on TV

  19. Los jefes de los chicos toman whisky con los ricos

    The bosses of the kids drink whisky with the rich

  20. Mientras los obreros hacen masa en la Plaza

    While the workers make dough in the Plaza

  21. Como aquella vez, como aquella vez

    Like that time, like that time

  22. Si querés escucharé a la B.B.C

    If you want, I'll listen to the B.B.C

  23. Aunque quieras que lo hagamos de noche

    Even if you want us to do it at night

  24. Y si quieres darme un beso alguna vez

    And if you ever want to give me a kiss

  25. Es posible que me suba a tu coche

    It's possible that I'll get in your car

  26. Pero no bombardeen Barrio Norte

    But don't bomb Barrio Norte

  27. Buenos Aires

    Buenos Aires

  28. Buenos Aires

    Buenos Aires

  29. Buenos Aires

    Don't bomb Buenos Aires

    Don't bomb Buenos Aires

  32. No bombardeen Buenos Aires

    Don't bomb Buenos Aires

  33. No bombardeen Buenos Aires

    Don't bomb Buenos Aires
