chaval chaval
la cosa va muy mal
te ha toquao la mala suerte
que te lleva hacia la muerte
porque soy el pajaro jako
cuando quiero mato jaibo y te matar
avenue a: here comes the day
avenue b: here goes the junky
avenue c: there is no rescue
death avenue is waiting for you
Chaval chaval
tu va estas agarra
te veo muy colgao
y hare de ti un desagraciado
porque soy el pajaro jako
cuando quiero mato jaibo y te matar
estas echo una ruina
esperate en la esquina
voy a por tu vitamina
aguanta! paga, y camina
avenue a: here comes the day
avenue b: here goes the junky
avenue c: it's an emergency
O.D.O.D. in alphabet city
soy el pajaro jako cuando quiero mato
matale al anciano
robale al hermano
vamos ! que yo te doy la mano
