Yo quisiera poder aplacar
Una fiera terrible
Yo quisiera poder transformar
Tanta cosa imposible
Yo quisiera decir tantas cosas
Que pudieran hacerme sentir bien conmigo
Yo quisiera poder abrazar mi
Mayor enemigo
Yo quisiera no ver tantas nubes obscuras arriba
Navegar sin hayar tantas manchas de aceite en los mares
Y ballenas desapareciendo
Por falta de escrúpulos
Comerciales
Yo quisiera ser civilizado
Como los animales
La ra ra lalara lara larara parara
Yo quisiera ser civilizado
Como los animales
Yo quisiera no ver tanto verde
En la tierra muriendo
Y en las aguas de ríos los peces desapareciendo
Yo quisiera gritar que ese tal
Oro negro no es más que un negro veneno
Ya sabemos que por todo eso
Vivimos ya menos
Yo no puedo aceptar ciertas cosas que ya no comprendo
El comercio de armas de guerra
De muertes viviendo
Yo quisiera hablar de alegría
En vez de tristeza
Mas no soy capaz
Yo quisiera ser civilizado
Como los animales
La ra ra lalara lara larara
Parara
Yo quisiera ser civilizado
Como los animales
La ra ra lalara lara larara
Parara
Yo quisiera ser civilizado
Como los animales
Yo no estoy contra el progreso
Si existiera un buen consenso
Errores no corrigen otros
Eso es lo que pienso
Yo no estoy contra el progreso
Si existiera un buen consenso
Errores no corrigen otros
Eso es lo que pienso
