Lyrics:

[Español]

[English]

Lloré, lloré lo siento

I cried, I cried, I'm sorry

Me pasa cuando miro mucha publicidad

It happens to me when I see too much advertising

Los ves, están tan contentos

You see them, they look so happy

En los afiches nuevos de algún celular

In the new ads for some cellphone

En la calle una sonrisa vale oro

On the street, a smile is worth gold

O el doble

Or double

En mi barrio, en la mañana hubo un robo

In my neighborhood, there was a robbery in the morning

Violento

Violent

Si hay un dios, algo tiene que hacer, sí

If there's a god, he has to do something, yes

Porque algún dios tiene que aparecer

Because some god has to show up

Ahora un dios, que se ponga la 10

Now a god, who wears number 10

Ah, ah

Ah, ah

Grité, grité: "lo siento"

I shouted, I shouted: "I'm sorry"

Me pasa cuando escucho un político hablar

It happens to me when I hear a politician speak

Los ves, están tan contentos

You see them, they look so happy

Y esa sonrisa no la juzga ningún tribunal

And that smile is judged by no court

Por las calles

On the streets

Estas vidas valen poco o nada

These lives are worth little or nothing

En mi barrio

In my neighborhood

Esa gente tiene hambre y bronca

Those people are hungry and angry

Si hay un dios, algo tiene que hacer, sí

If there's a god, he has to do something, yes

Porque algún dios tiene que aparecer

Because some god has to show up

Ahora un dios, que se ponga la 10

Now a god, who wears number 10

Ah, ah

Ah, ah

Si hay un dios, algo tiene que hacer

La, ah-ah, la, ah-ah

La, ah-ah, la, ah-ah

La, ah-ah, la, ah-ah

La, ah-ah, la, ah-ah

La, ah-ah, la, ra-ah

La, ah-ah, la, ah-ah

Uh-uh, uh-uh

Uh-uh, uh-uh

Si hay un dios

If there's a god

Si hay un dios

If there's a god
