El U.F.O. Cayo(original) |
En los 50's pasó |
Por la ventana veía yo |
Cuando un silencio se sintió |
En Palo Verde, un UFO cayó |
Un extraño surgió |
Con orgullo en traje guango |
Su voz nos habló en caló |
En caló nos suplicó |
Órale, esos vatos feos del barrio del Palo Verde |
Quiero que se pongan muy al alba |
Quiero que sepan y que se pongan muy alerta |
De que hay unos gabachos que les quieren quitar sus tierras |
Y poner un estadio de beisbol para agringar nuestro barrio |
¿Me entiendes, Méndz? |
Levanten sus chivas y vámonos de volada |
Porqu nuestro barrio nos lo van a cambiar, ese vato |
Nos van a enterrar nuestros cantones |
Y a nosotros y a los nuestros nos van a mandar al valle más grande de México |
Ese carnal, ¿sabes cual es el valle más grande de México? |
Simón, ese, el valle más grande de México |
Es el ‘valle mucho a la quinta chistosa', ese |
Bueno, ya estuvo, cara de tubo |
Agarren sus tambiaches y sálganse antes de que los apachurren |
Y súbanse al platillo volador, el UFO |
Y de volada, vámonos a volar, ese vato |
Porque nuestro barrio ya se lo jambaron los gabachos |
He dicho, no se agüite, cara de esquite |
Ya estuvo, cara de tubo |
(translation) |
In the 50's it happened |
Through the window I saw |
When a silence was felt |
In Palo Verde, a UFO fell |
a stranger arose |
Proudly in a guango suit |
Her voice spoke to us in Caló |
In caló she begged us |
Hey, those ugly vatos from the Palo Verde neighborhood |
I want them to get very early |
I want you to know and to be very alert |
That there are some frogs who want to take away their land |
And put up a baseball stadium to make our neighborhood look ugly |
Do you understand me, Mendz? |
Raise your chivas and let's go flying |
Because our neighborhood is going to be changed, that vato |
Our cantons are going to bury us |
And we and our people are going to be sent to the largest valley in Mexico |
That carnal, do you know which is the largest valley in Mexico? |
Simón, that, the largest valley in Mexico |
It is the 'valley much to the fifth funny', that |
Well that's it, tube face |
Grab your tambiaches and get out before they crush you |
And get on the flying saucer, the UFO |
And on the fly, let's go fly, that vato |
Because our neighborhood was already jambachos by the gabachos |
I have said, don't worry, skittish face |
That's it, tube face |
