Madrid

A unos le toca en Gambia
y a otros en Pekín
y a mí me tocó nacer en Madrid
Y no es un trauma
ni un orgullo para mí
porque no me dejaron elegir
¡Oh! Madrid
una ciudad de alquitrán
hierro cemento y cristal
En Madrid
Caen sombras largas
de edificios sobre mí
bajo mis pies siento crecer Madrid
¡Oh! Madrid
Se ha hecho tan grande
y tan pequeño para mí
que sólo hay sitio para ir y venir
por Madrid
Y no sobrevivirás
si no funcionas a gas
En Madrid
Alguna gente no lo puede soportar
yo ya sin humo no sé respirar
A unos le toca en Gambia
y a otros en Pekín
y a mí me tocó nacer en Madrid.
