Los Peces Gordos No Pueden Volar

Fat Fish Can't Fly

I'm gonna take the wind at my back,
and sail towards a better journey,
and gaze at the endless sun,
with the certainty of a better deal.

Chorus:
Stay true to your values, you gotta go,
walk that path and hold on tight,
so you can achieve that good life.
And even if they have it all, they don't have you,
because fat fish can't fly.

I'm just another mom who sleeps
little but dreams a lot,
who learns more from her kids
than from the adult world.
When I grow up, I wanna be a kid,
laughing with you in a simple way.

With the few hours I have with you,
I gotta fight with fish
that wanna be friends whispering in your ear,
through commercials,
and seducing you through their channels.

But you see, it's just you and me,
building a world for the two of us.
For you, for me, and all the friends
who don't buy into this dirty game anymore.

Chorus:
Stay true to your values, you gotta go,
walk that path and hold on tight,
so you can achieve that good life.
And even if they have it all, they don't have you,
because fat fish can't fly.

Son, I know, nothing makes sense,
even what I say
doesn't sound fun.
I'm not saying the world is over,
but fat fish
are everywhere.

I'm not against us playing,
just wanna tell you how the game goes;
Kidzania ain't a park,
and the mall ain't a plaza,
and that cell phone doesn't replace friends.

I want simple things for you,
for you to draw a world of justice and joy.
And I know that outside everything shines,
but if you look closely, you'll see the lie.

Chorus:
Stay true to your values, you gotta go,
walk that path and hold on tight,
so you can achieve that good life.
And even if they have it all, they don't have you...

Hey son!
For you, for me, and all the friends,
who don't buy into this dirty game anymore,
Son, I know, nothing makes sense,
even what I say doesn't sound fun...but

Kidzania ain't a park,
and the mall ain't a plaza.
Hey! And that cell phone
...doesn't replace friends.

When I grow up, I wanna be a kid
and laugh with you in a simple way.
And remember! Stay true to your values, you gotta go,
walk that path and hold on tight,
so you can achieve that good life.
