¡El Tango, No No No!

El presidente en la calle y sus soldados están allí
La muerte esta cerca si la gente non esta libre

We will not be free in Santiago
We are not allowed to do "el tango"
We will not be free
Until we dance liberty
But you don't even know
El tango

El presidente en la calle y sus soldados están allí
La muerte esta cerca si la gente non esta libre

We will not be free until you go
We are not allowed to do "el tango"
When will we be free?
The day we dance liberty
But you don't even know

El tango, no no no, el tango
El tango, no no no, el tango
El tango, no no no, el tango
El tango, no no no, el tango

It's nothing now what it seems to be
I find I never can remember if the people were ever free
El tango, he said no, no, no
Though he'll never stop the people and their dance of liberty

It's nothing now what it seems to be
Will the scars of Carmen heal if the people are never free
El tango, she said no, no, no
But they can't stop the people and their dance of liberty
