Eso Ya Se Ha Visto
Chancho En Piedra
We've Seen This Before
We've seen this before (repeat)
I have a fresh idea
That’s sure to be a hit
Let’s gather three or five kids
Who can sing and dance real nice
Let’s make them catchy songs
And pretty choreographies
And with some glossy magazines
Let’s give away their bios
(chorus)
It’s not the same to create something new
As it is to do the same thing again
It’s different to do it for profit
Than to live art as a craft
Let’s make whatever product comes to mind while the hype lasts
After all, teens are great customers
Everyone will want to dress and act like them
And the little girls will buy their albums just because they’re cute
(chorus)
I can’t stand that
It’s a fact they’ve done it before
Yeah, I’m gonna show you
That business isn’t art
Let’s not promote mediocrity with complacency
I love my art
When the success fades
We’ll look for others to keep the business going
After a few years, let’s take them
To a mediocre TV show
To laugh at their problems
And enjoy the decline
Because nowadays
That’s what gets the ratings
We've seen this before
People just need bread and circus
We've seen this before
And why fry our brains
If the crowd loves that!
I can’t stand that
I love my art
I love my art
It’s my mission to unmask you
And show anyone who wants to listen
That you can create something original
I know we’re fewer in number
But we’re greater in quality
Trash dies with trends
And art lasts forever
(chorus)
To create art that hasn’t been seen before
