Ruben Blades "Plástico" lyrics

Translation to:deenpt

Plástico

Ella era una chica plástica de esas que veo por ahíDe esas que cuando se agitan sudan Chanel number threeQue sueñan casarse con un doctorPues el puede mantenerlas mejorNo le hablan a nadie si no es su igualA menos que sea fulano de talSon lindas, delgadas, de buen vestirDe mirada esquiva y falso reir

El era un muchacho plástico, de esos que veo por ahíCon la peinilla en la mano y cara de yo no fuiDe los que por tema en conversacióndiscuten que marca de carro es mejorDe los que prefieren el no comerPor las apariencias que hay que tenerPara andar elegantes y asi poder unachica plástica recoger

Que fallo

Era una pareja plástica de esas que veo por ahíEl pensando sólo en dineroElla en la boda en ParisAparentando lo que no sonViviendo en un mundo de pura ilusiónDiciendo a su hijo de cinco años,No juegues con niños de color extrañoAhogados en deudas para mantenerSu estatus social en boda o hotel

Que fallo

Era una ciudad de plástico, de esas que no quiero verDe edificios cancerosos y un corazón de oropelDonde en vez de un sol amanece un dolarDonde nadie ríe, donde nadie lloraCon gente de rostros de poliésterQue escuchan sin oír y miran sin verGente que vendía por comodidadSu razón de ser y su libertad

Oye latino,oye hermano, oye amigoNunca vendas tu destino por el oro ni la comodidadNunca descanses, pues nos falta andar bastanteVamos todos adelante para juntos terminarCon la ignorancia que nos trae sugestionadosCon modelos importados que no son la solución

No te dejes confundirBusca el fondo y su razónRecuerda se ven las carasPero nunca el corazónNo te dejes confundirBusca el fondo y su razónRecuerda se ven las carasPero nunca el corazónRecuerda se ven las carasY jamás el corazón

Se ven las caras se ven las caras valla pero nunca el corazónDel polvo venimos todos y alla regresaremos, como dice la canciónSe ven las caras, se ven las caras, valla, pero nunca el corazónRecuerda que el plástico se derrite si le da de lleno el solSe ven las caras, se ven las caras, valla, pero nunca el corazón

Se ven las caras, se ven las caras, valla, pero nunca el corazónEstudia, trabaja, y se gente primero, alla esta la soluciónSe ven las caras, se ven las caras, valla, pero nunca el corazónPero que mira, mira, no te dejes confundir, busca el fondo y su razónSe ven las caras, se ven las caras, valla, pero nunca el corazónPa' 'lante, pa 'lante, pa 'lante, pa 'lante, pa 'lante, y asi­ seguiremos unidosY al final venceremosSe ven las caras, se ven las caras, valla, pero nunca el corazón

Pero señoras y señores(se ven las caras)En medio del plástico también se ven las caras de esperanzas(se ven las caras)Se ven las caras orgullosas que trabajan por una Latinoamérica unida(se ven las caras)Y por un mañana de esperanza y libertad(se ven las caras)

Se ven las caras de trabajo y de sudor(se ven las caras)De gente de carne y hueso que no se venden(se ven las caras)De gente trabajando buscando el nuevo camino(se ven las caras)Orgullosa de su herencia y de ser latino(se ven las caras)De una raza unida la que Bolivar soñaría(se ven las caras)

Plastic

She was a plastic girl, one of those that I see aroundThose who when they're aroused,they sweat Chanel No.3Who dream about marrying a doctorbecause he can support them betterThey won't talk to anyone who is not their equalUnless it's whats-his-nameThey are pretty, thin, well-dressedWith an aloof look and a fake laugh

He was a plastic boy, one of those that I see aroundWith a comb in his hand and a face of "it wasn't me"1One of those who in the course of a conversationargue what brand of car is betterThose who prefer not to eatFor the appearances they need to haveto look elegant so they can pick upa plastic girl

What a loser

They were a plastic couple, those that I see aroundHe thinks only of moneyShe in Paris fashionsPretending to be who they're notLiving in a world of pure illusionTelling their five-year old sonDon't play with children of a different colorDrowning in debt to keep uptheir social status in a wedding or hotel

What a loser

It was a plastic city, those that I don't want to seeWith cancerous buildings and a heart of tinselWhere the dollar rises instead of the sunWhere nobody laughs, where nobody criesPeople with faces of polyesterThat hear without listening and look without seeingPeople selling out for comfort,their reason for being and their freedom

Hey latino, hey brother, hey friendNever sell your destiny for gold nor convenienceNever rest, because we still have a long way to goLet us all go forward so that together we can terminateWith the ignorance that brings us those with influences,With imported standards that are not the solution.

Don't let yourself be fooled,Look for the basis and its reason.Remember, the faces are seenBut never the heart.Don't let yourself be fooled,Look for the basis and its reason.Remember, the faces are seenBut never the heart.Remember, the faces are seenAnd never the heart.

The faces are seen, the faces are seen, yeah, but never the heartFrom dust we come and to dust we'll return as the song saysThe faces are seen, the faces are seen, yeah, but never the heartRemember that plastic melts in full sunThe faces are seen, the faces are seen, yeah, but never the heart

The faces are seen, the faces are seen, yeah, but never the heartStudy, work, and be people first, there is the salvationThe faces are seen, the faces are seen, yeah, but never the heartBut look, look, don't be fooled, look for the basis and its reasonThe faces are seen, the faces are seen, yeah, but never the heartForward, forward, forward, forward and we'll so we'll continuebeing unitedAnd in the end we will winThe faces are seen, the faces are seen, yeah, but never the heart

But ladies and gentlemen(the faces are seen)In the midst of plastic is also seen the faces ofhopes(the faces are seen)The faces of pride can be seen that work for aLatin America united(the faces are seen)And for a tomorrow of hope and of liberty(the faces are seen)

Seen are the faces of labor and sweat(the faces are seen)Of people of flesh and blood who didn't sell out(the faces are seen)Of people working looking for a new path(the faces are seen)Proud of their heritage and of being latino(the faces are seen)Of a race united like Bolivar had dreamed about(the faces are seen)
