Progreso
Roberto Carlos
Progress
I would like to be able to calm down
A terrible beast
I would like to be able to transform
So many impossible things
I would like to say so many things
That could make me feel good about myself
I would like to be able to embrace my
Greatest enemy
I would like not to see so many dark clouds above
To sail without finding so many oil stains in the seas
And disappearing whales
Due to lack of commercial
Scruples
I would like to be civilized
Like the animals
La ra ra lalara lara larara parara
I would like to be civilized
Like the animals
I would like not to see so much green
On the dying earth
And in the river waters the disappearing fish
I would like to shout that this so-called
Black gold is nothing but a black poison
We already know that because of all this
We are living less
I cannot accept certain things that I no longer understand
The trade of war weapons
Of living deaths
I would like to talk about joy
Instead of sadness
But I am not capable
I would like to be civilized
Like the animals
La ra ra lalara lara larara
Parara
I would like to be civilized
Like the animals
La ra ra lalara lara larara
Parara
I would like to be civilized
Like the animals
I am not against progress
If there were a good consensus
Mistakes do not correct others
That's what I think
I am not against progress
If there were a good consensus
Mistakes do not correct others
That's what I think
