lyrics
I want some change, I need some change
Oye traje viejo, ya me tienes cansao
Siempre el mismo traje con el mismo mensaje
Las mismas palabras y las mismos chistes
Los mismos discursos vacíos sin colores
Ya nadie te escucha es hora de cambiar
Abre ya tu mente yo empieza a escuchar
Ya sonó la alerta tienes que despertar
Recoge tu chaqueta y pone a cantar
I want some change, I need some change, acho bai bai
Para cambiar de traje de modo efectivo
Hay que darle el golpe que sea definitivo
Se que en tu cabeza hay algo conflictivo
Botalo pa’fuera mandalo pa’ l archivo
No dejes que el odio se adueñe de tu vida
Busca los remedios busca una salida
Manda pa’ el carajo ese pinche titiritero
Corta ya los hilos y utiliza tu cerebro
I want some change, I need some change, acho bai bai

Translation:
want some change, I need some change
Hey old suit, I’m tired of you
Always the same suit with the same message
The same words and the same jokes
The same empty talk, empty, without color
And no one is listening to you, its time to change
Open your mind and start listening
The alarm already went off, you have to wake up
Change your jacket and start singing
I want some change, I need some change, acho bai bai
To change your wardrobe effectively
You have to give it the final blow
I know that there’s conflict in your mind
Kick it out, send it to the files
Don’t let hate rule your life
Look for the solutions, look for a way out
Send that damn puppet master to hell
Cut your strings and use your brain
I want some change, I need some change, acho bai bai
Oye traje viejo, ya me tienes cansao
Siempre el mismo traje con el mismo mensaje
Las mismas palabras y las mismos chistes
Los mismos discursos vacíos sin colores
Ya nadie te escucha es hora de cambiar
Abre ya tu mente yo empieza a escuchar
Ya sonó la alerta tienes que despertar
Recoge tu chaqueta y pone a cantar
I want some change, I need some change, acho bai bai
Para cambiar de traje de modo efectivo
Hay que darle el golpe que sea definitivo
Se que en tu cabeza hay algo conflictivo
Botalo pa’fuera mandalo pa’ l archivo
No dejes que el odio se adueñe de tu vida
Busca los remedios busca una salida
Manda pa’ el carajo ese pinche titiritero
Corta ya los hilos y utiliza tu cerebro
I want some change, I need some change, acho bai bai
