Sálvese Quien Pueda

Save Yourself If You Can

I have an idea spinning around for a while
How is it possible that progress is so violent?
A flower, a tree, a scent, the little birds
Are values that are slowly being lost

Chop, throw, break, take out, put in, and make noise
Indignating us with their senseless projects
They demolished the apple tree next to the square
To build such a big, greasy shopping center

Save yourself if you can
Save yourself if you can
Whoever can, save themselves

They change the facade of the house, they are ashamed
They didn't teach us the value of our heritage
The sidewalk, the store, the kiosk, I recognize them
If they take them away, I feel like a fish out of water

The strawberries, the tomatoes, are not as tasty now
Because they added who knows what, some damn gene
Ah, the roses used to be thorny and fragrant
Now they don't prick you, but they smell like nothing

Save yourself if you can
Save yourself if you can
Whoever can, save themselves

Save yourself if you can
Save yourself if you can
Whoever can, save themselves

I see
I hear
I smell
I touch
I feel
I think
