Shock [English translation]
Shock [English translation]
Venom: your monologues,
your colorless speeches,
you don't see that we AREN'T alone,
millions from pole to pole!
To the sound of a single chorus,
we will march with the tone,
with the conviction that THE THIEVING STOPS!!
Your state of control,
your corrupt throne of gold,
your politics and your wealth,
and your treasure, no.
The hour has struck, the hour has struck
We will allow NO MORE, no more your doctrine of shock
The hour has struck, the hour has struck (doctrine of shock)
The hour has struck, the hour has struck (doctrine of shock)
The hour has struck, the hour has struck (doctrine of shock)
The hour has struck, the hour has struck
NO nations, only corporations,
who has more, more actions,
fat slices, powerful decisions for very little.
Pinochetan^ constitution,
opus dei rights, fascist books.
Guerilla disguised as a pardoned elitist,
the drop falls, the stocks fall, the occupation takes the broken machine.
the street doesn't keep quiet, the street scratches
the street doesn't keep quiet, as wide as it is.
They take everything, sell everything,
make a profit from everything, life, death,
it's all business.
I eat you all, seed, (pascuala?), methods and choruses.
Venom: your monologues,
your colorless speeches,
you don't see that we AREN'T alone,
millions from pole to pole!!
To the sound of a single chorus,
we will march with the tone,
with the conviction that THE THIEVING STOPS!!
Your state of control,
your corrupt throne of gold,
your politics and your wealth,
and your treasure, no.
The hour has struck, the hour has struck
We will allow NO MORE, no more your doctrine of shock
The hour has struck, the hour has struck (doctrine of shock)
The hour has struck, the hour has struck (doctrine of shock)
The hour has struck, the hour has struck (doctrine of shock)
The hour has struck, the hour has struck
(Some people talk.)
Hit for hit, kiss for kiss,
with wishes and nourishment
with ashes, with the fire of the present, remembering,
with certainty and ripping, with the clear objetive,
with memory and with the history of the future, it's NOW!
Everything: this trial tube,
everything: this daily laboratory,
everything: this failure, everything: this condemned economic model from dinosaur times.
Everything is criminalized, everything is justified in the news,
they get rid of everything, walk all over everything, open a file on everything and classify it.
But...your politics and your tactics,
your typical smile and ethics.
Your manipulated communiqué
How many of them were silenced?
Cops, hoses and lumas*,
cops, hoses and tunas**,
cops, hoses, DON'T ADD UP.
How many were those who stole the fortunes?
Venom: your monologues,
your colorless speeches,
you don't see that we AREN'T alone,
millions from pole to pole!!
To the sound of a single chorus,
we will march with the tone,
with the conviction that THE THIEVING STOPS!!
Your state of control,
your corrupt throne of gold,
your politics and your wealth,
and your treasure, no.
The hour has struck, the hour has struck
We will allow NO MORE, no more your doctrine of shock
The hour has struck, the hour has struck (doctrine of shock)
The hour has struck, the hour has struck (doctrine of shock)
The hour has struck, the hour has struck (doctrine of shock)
The hour has struck, the hour has struck
