Cardboard Houses
How sad the rain sounds
On the cardboard roofs
How sad my people live
In the cardboard houses
The worker comes down
Almost dragging his steps
Under the weight of suffering
Look how much he has suffered
Look how heavy the suffering is
Upstairs the pregnant woman is left
Below is the city
And gets lost in its tangle
Today is the same as yesterday
In their life without tomorrow
'There falls the rain
Here comes the suffering
But if the rain passes
When does the suffering pass?
When does hope come?'
Children the color of my land
With the same scars
Millionaires of worms
And that's why
How sad the children live
In the cardboard houses
How happy the dogs live
House of the exploiter
You won't believe it
But there are dog schools
And they are educated
So they don't bite the newspapers
But the boss!
For years, many years
He's been biting the worker
How sad the rain sounds
On the cardboard roofs
How far hope passes
In the cardboard houses
How sad the rain sounds
On the cardboard roofs
How sad the rain sounds
On the cardboard roofs
