Latest revision as of 21:42, 5 October 2023

I would send out for assistance but there's someone on the signal wire
And the corporation logo is flashing on and off in the sky
They're putting all your names in the forbidden book
I know what they're doing but I don't want to look

You think they're so dumb, you think they're so funny
Wait until they've got you running to the
Night rally, night rally, night rally

Everybody's singing with their hand on their heart
About deeds done in the darkest hours
That's just the sort of catchy little melody
To get you singing in the showers

Oh, I know that I'm ungrateful
I've got it lying on a plate
And I'm not buying my share of souvenirs
You can stand to attention
You can pray to your uncle
Only get that chicken out of here
Everyone gets armbands and 3-D glasses
Some are in the back room
And they're taking those night classes

You think they're so dumb, you think they're so funny
Wait until they've got you running to the
Night rally, night rally, night rally



La Turba (Spanish Model) lyrics

No llames por refuerzos
Que la línea está intervenida
Y en el cielo resplandece
El logo de la compañía
Tu nombre está en su libro
Te irán a buscar
Sé lo que ellos hacen
Pero no quiero mirar.

Pensás que son payasos
Con su idea absurda
Pero cuando querés ver
Ya vas en
La turba la turba la turba

Todo el mundo canta con la mano en el pecho
A los héroes de una oscura lucha
Con esa melodía que te haría entrar
Cantando en la ducha

Yo sé que soy ingrato
Tengo comida en el plato
Y no compro mi ración de souvenirs
Griten cuanto tengan ganas
Pero abran la ventana
Y dejen ese pájaro salir!
Gafas de 3-D, gorra y brazalete
Salen por las noches
Y comparan sus juguetes.

Pensás que son payasos
Con sun idea absurda
Pero cuando querés ver
Ya vas en
La turba la turba la turba
