Lo Que El Viento Se Dejo
Mägo de Oz
What the Wind Left Behind
Yesterday I spoke with a very formal guy
Father of a family and an exemplary husband
His name is promise and his last name is lie
He dictates the rules and how you should live
Let me tell you very politely
That my homeland is my guitar and my nation only me
Today I want to show you my world, pay attention
To everything you see and keep your honor well
You will meet Maria, on the corner night and day
She was raped by her father, the one on the floor is her mother
He made a big mistake
He has the monkey and there's no horse
And the child who is crying
At six years old begging
The only flag that makes me stand up
Are a woman's panties
The only anthem that makes me shiver
Are two beers and waiting for dawn
The drunk on the corner is a medical graduate
To that old man you pushed, you stole his pension
If you slept among cardboard, among whores and thieves
If you went hungry and cold, you would understand what I say
Let me spit on you, but with education
And when you get to the Moncloa, make a comparison
Everything you've seen, that's my religion
By the way, a donation: Your wallet and your watch! Come on!
What the wind left behind were guys like you
Not with all your power can you take away our night
Not with all your money can you steal our street
Not with all your ambition can you leave us without dreams
You have the National Anthem
We have rock'n'roll
What the wind left behind
You met Maria and the drunk on the corner
Oh, Felipe of my life
If you slept among cardboard, among whores and thieves
