lyrics

cuentame un cuento
sin calendario
hay 27 letras
en el abecedario

si llevas la ch o la q
vente pa ca
que te quiero compartir
muchos haikus

Sigues el ritmo
5-7-5
viene de japon pon pon
necesitas ainco

aca yo no tengo celular
no me marques al 415
lo llevo en modo de avio-o-on
porque no soy de aqui

Coro :

y si tienes frio vamonos al rio
yo llevo la toalla para secarte
y si te gusta el arte
dime quien es lo mas

vamonos de viaje
no necesitas traje
piensa en la sabana que grande puede ser
yo me muero de ganas de conocer
ese mundo afuera
no llevo mapa
solo voy en la bicicleta de la libertad
cuentame tus coordenadas
que yo te encuentro alla

no quiero ser un padron
quiero ser en otra parte
no quiero ser Napoleon Bonaparte
je ne suis pas francais

Coro

Acaso sera el impresionismo de Monet
o Vangogh con sus cartas a Teo
de los dias que el aun no era ateo

somos un banco de memorias
hecho de historias ajenas
no he ido a cartagena
pero conozco de colombia

quiero volver a amsterdam
aquella calle de lluvias y hongos
que todos esos psicotropicos
toquen mi cerebelo

quiero ser la geometria y que pitagoras me convierta en poesia,
no quiero ser un guernica mas
quiero ser yo
mi propio canvas

quiero el 3/4 y la bossa nova
y que mi oficina no tenga pared
quiero una colina
para contemplar y que yo nunca sufra de sed

Porque no somos mas que una experiencia sensorial
a tit te gusta ver a mi me gusta escuchar
estamos entrelazados por el tiempo y sus vertentes
No llevo patente lo llevo a la gente
Soy independiente tengo autonomia
Busco ver el dia en que mis melodias
Puedan tocar un poquito de tu piiiiieeeeeel
Y si tienes frio
Y si tienes frio
Vamonos al rio
Yo llevo la toalla
Para secarte
Para secarte
Y si tienes frio
