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 |
