Ahora presten atención Es que mis amigos y yo Vamos al concierto De la banda que me gusta Suena el sucio rock'n'roll Habla de la bestia pop Todo el mundo a bailar, la banda suda Pero cuidado lo que hacés Por dónde vas Después del gran recital Están los puños de la ley para atraparte La ciudad va a reventar Tarde para reaccionar El camino es largo Buenos Aires arde Aires de sirenas y de canas Buenos Aires (Arde Buenos Aires) Arde de violencia ya se quema Buenos Aires (Ah) Suena el sucio rock and roll Habla de la bestia pop En el concierto de la banda que me gusta Todo el mundo baila bajo estado de shock Las luces agigantan a la banda de rock Mientras tanto, la ciudad violenta aguarda Y por si no le entiendes Flavio te lo dice en francés Fais attention petit frère Quand tu sors du récital Y a quelqu'un qui peut te faire du mal Ça c'est pas crédible Mais la peur est dans la ville Le chemin est trop long, j'sais pas pourquoi Il y a beaucoup de cons qui nous font du mal Aires de sirenas y de canas Buenos Aires Arde de violencia ya se quema Buenos Aires Aires de sirenas y de canas Buenos Aires Arde de violencia ya se quema Buenos Aires

Dice are rolling, the knives are out Would-be presidents are all around I don't say they mean harm But they'd each give an arm To see us six feet underground It doesn't matter what those morons say Our nation's leaders are a feeble crew There's only twenty of them anyway What is twenty next to millions who Are looking to you All you have to do is sit and wait Keeping out of everybody's way We'll ... you'll be handed power on a plate When the ones who matter have their say And with chaos installed You can reluctantly agree to be called There again we could be foolish not to quit while we're ahead For distance lends enchantment, and that is why All exiles are distinguished, more important, they're not dead I could find job satisfaction in Paraguay This is crazy defeatist talk Why commit political suicide, there's no risk There's no call for any action at all When you have unions on your side Peron! Peron! A new Argentina, the chains of the masses untied A new Argentina, the voice of the people Cannot be denied There is only one man who can lead any workers' regime He lives for your problems, he shares your ideals and your dream He supports you, for he loves you Understands you, is one of you If not, how could he love me? A new Argentina, the workers' battle song A new Argentina, the voice of the people Rings out loud and long Now I am a worker, I've suffered the way that you do I've been unemployed, and I've starved and I've hated it too But I found my salvation in Peron, may the nation Let him save them as he saved me A new Argentina, a new age about to begin A new Argentina, we face the world together And no dissent within Nationalization of the industries that the foreigners control Participation in the profits that we make Shorter hours Higher wages Votes for women Larger dole More public spending A bigger slice of every cake How annoying that we have to fight elections for their cause The inconvenience, having to get a majority If normal methods of persuasion fail to win us applause There are other ways of establishing authority We have ways of making you vote for us, or at least of making you abstain Peron has resigned from the army and this we avow The descamisados are those he is marching with now! He supports you for he loves you, understands you, is one of your If not--how could he love me? A new Argentina! The chains of the masses untied! A new Argentina! The voice of the people cannot be, and will not be, and must not be, denied! There again we could be foolish Not to quit while we're ahead I can see me many miles away Inactive Sipping cocktails on a terrace Taking breakfast in bed Sleeping easy, doing crosswords It's attractive Don't think I don't think like you, I often get those nightmares too They always take some swallowing Sometimes it's very difficult to keep momentum if It's you that you are following Don't close doors Keep an escape clause Because we might lose The Big Apple But--would I have done, what I did If I hadn't thought, if I hadn't known We would take the country? A new Argentina! The chains of the masses untied! A new Argentina! The voice of the people cannot be, and will not be, and must not be, denied!

On this night of a thousand stars Let me take you to heaven's door Where the music of love's guitars Plays forevermore In the glow of the twinkling lights We shall love through eternity On this night in a million nights Fly away with me I never dreamed that a kiss Could be as sweet as this But now I know that it can I used to wander alone Without a love of my own I was a desperate man But all my grief disappeared And all the sorrow I'd feared Wasn't there anymore On that magical day When you first came my way, mi amor On this night On this night On this night of a thousand stars Let me take you to heavens door Where the music of love's guitar Plays forever, amor To think that a man As famous as you are Could love a poor little nappy like me The artians here are extremly heavy going Listen chump, face the facts
