Superhéroes

Superheroes
You're looking for directions
In cookbooks on the shelf
You're mixing sweet with the salt
Searching for information
In some metal boxes
You're buying the world at a bazaar
Watching superheroes, superstars
You feel super-crazy, super bad
I see the maids in the square
Dressed to make you fall in love
Living a hundred years of solitude
Nothing's happening, no one’s around
Just a military band
Out of tune with time and rhythm
So look at me
Trying to get those feet to move
Under the lights playing till dawn
Don’t stay home
'Cause the dance is about to start
I want to see you again
There's a horrible monster in wigs
Who partly owns
This crazy town
Makes them dance with the band on the street
But really, he steals their gold
And gives them some prostitutes
They're cleaning up the ashes
From our brief carnival
We're already on our way to another city
You see, we're neither tourists
Nor artists in smiles and tuxedos
We’re part of your reality
That's why we're here
Trying to get those feet to move
Under the lights playing till dawn
Don't stay home 'cause the dance is about to start
I want to see you, see you again, see you again
