Cruzar los Brazos [English translation]

That someone thinks that you are wrong

That you can look to them like a rare bug.

That's not bad. That's not bad.

If it loads you that an expert in bombings

Explains it to you and you don't understand what it's all about.

Raise your finger. Raise your finger.

You who don't know at what distance is that star

Galaxies don't excite you, don't interest you

It's not your war. It's not your war.

But you think those months are stolen

The ones that make you give service as soldier.

Are too long. Are too long.

If you're willing to do a good flip off

To who orders you to conquer that beach,

To lay a bridge, to corner some neighbor

In the supposed case the enemy attacks.

If the danger is to be called bad patriot

By the ones who always do the things by obligation

What a glory. What a glory.

Here I am captive alone and disarmed

There's no better defense but crossing the arms.

To pass by. To cross the arms.

Maybe tomorrow there won't be anything that spits fire

And we'll hang anyone who invents the slingshot

We'll rest our misery in a thick broth,

Maybe that day we'll all be fools or blind.

Here I am captive alone and disarmed

There's no better defense but crossing the arms.

To pass by. To cross the arms.
