¿Este es el rock?
Is this rock?
Si esto no es el rock, ¿el rock dónde está?
If this isn't rock, then where is the rock?
Yo no quiero volverme tan loco
I don't want to go crazy like this
Yo no quiero vestirme de rojo
I don't want to dress in red
Yo no quiero morir en el mundo hoy
I don't want to die in this world today
Yo no quiero ya verte tan triste
I don't want to see you so sad anymore
Yo no quiero saber lo que hiciste
I don't want to know what you did
Yo no quiero esta pena en mi corazón
I don't want this pain in my heart
Escucho el beat de un tambor entre la desolación
I hear the beat of a drum amidst the desolation
De una radio en una calle desierta
From a radio on a deserted street
Están las puertas cerradas y las ventanas también
The doors are closed and the windows too
¿No será que nuestra gente está muerta?
Could it be that our people are dead?
Presiento el fin de un amor en la era del color
I sense the end of a love in the era of color
La televisión está en las vidrieras
The television is in the storefronts
Toda esa gente parada que tiene grasa en la piel
All those people standing with grease on their skin
No se entera ni que el mundo da vueltas
They're not even aware that the world keeps spinning
Yo no quiero meterme en problemas
I don't want to get into trouble
Yo no quiero asuntos que queman
I don't want issues that burn
Yo tan solo les digo que es un bajón
I just tell them it's a downer
Yo no quiero sembrar la anarquía
I don't want to sow anarchy
Yo no quiero vivir como digan
I don't want to live the way they say
Tengo algo que darte en mi corazón
I have something to give you from my heart
Escucho un tango y un rock y presiento que soy yo
I hear a tango and a rock and I sense it's me
Y quisiera ver al mundo de fiesta
And I would love to see the world celebrating
Veo tantas chicas castradas y tantos tontos que al fin
I see so many constrained girls and so many fools at last
Yo no sé si vivir tanto les cuesta
I don’t know if living this much is hard for them
Yo quiero ver muchos más delirantes por ahí
I want to see many more delirious ones out there
Bailando en una calle cualquiera
Dancing on any street
En Buenos Aires se ve que ya no hay tiempo de más
In Buenos Aires, it seems there's no more time to spare
La alegría no es solo brasilera (no, mi amor)
Joy isn't just Brazilian (no, my love)
Yo no quiero vivir paranoico
I don't want to live paranoid
Yo no quiero ver chicos con odio
I don't want to see kids with hatred
Yo no quiero sentir esta depresión
I don't want to feel this depression
Voy buscando el placer de estar vivo
I'm searching for the pleasure of being alive
No me importa si soy un bandido
I don't care if I'm a bandit
Voy pateando basura en el callejón
I'm kicking trash in the alley
Yo no quiero volverme tan loco
I don't want to go so crazy
Yo no quiero vestirme de rojo
I don't want to dress in red
Yo no quiero morir en el mundo hoy
I don't want to die in the world today
Yo no quiero ya verte tan triste
I don't want to see you so sad anymore
Yo no quiero saber lo que hiciste
I don't want to know what you did
Yo no quiero esta pena en mi corazón
I don't want this pain in my heart
Yo no quiero esta pena en mi corazón
I don't want this pain in my heart
Yo nunca quise estar loco
I never wanted to be crazy
Yo creo que todo es una mentira
I believe it's all a lie
Yo no quiero, yo no quiero
I don't want, I don't want
Yo quiero, yo no, yo no quiero
I want, I don't, I don't want
Yo quiero, yo no
I want, I don't
