De Mil Novecientos Veinte
Fito Páez
From Nineteen Twenty
Bite its tail, knock out its teeth
Like a pest, it comes and goes
There were two girls in nineteen twenty
Far from the noise, far from the sea
How much is a cab from here to Constitución?
Like what we once loved
This is a war, they’ve declared on me
Where the enemy could be me
All the ghosts, all the countries
All the beliefs, all the pain
Riding on his horse, puffing out a lot of gas
Like what we once loved
Where's my home? I owe two classes
If you turn around, you’re a pillar of salt
Since there’s no going back, since there’s no way out
I want someone to tell me how to stop
You go back home and if there’s no whiskey, a good gin
Like what we once loved
Bite its tail, knock out its teeth
Like a pest, it comes and goes
There were two girls in nineteen twenty
Far from the noise, far from the sea
