¿Por Qué No Se Van?

Si sueñas con Nueva York y con Europa
Te quejas de nuestra gente y de su ropa
Vives amando el cine arte del Normandie .
Si eres artista why los indios no te entienden
Si tu vanguardia aquí no se vende
Si quieres ser occidental de segunda mano

¿Por qué no se van?
¿Por qué no se van, no se van del país?
¿Por qué no se van, no se van del país?

Si viajas todos los años a Italia
Si la cultura es tan rica en Alemania
¿Por qué el próximo año no te quedas allá?
Si aquí no tienes los medios que reclamas
Si aquí tu genio y talento no da fama
Si tu apellido no es Gonzales ni Tapia

¿Por qué no se van?
¿Por qué no se van, no se van del país?
¿Por qué no se van, no se van del país?

[Intro]
(Normandie...)

[Verse 1]
If you are dreaming about New York and Europe
And you complain about our people and their clothing
You live loving the art films at the Normandie
If you're an artist and the natives just don't get you
And if your vanguard just isn't selling here
If you want to be a second-hand Westerner
Then why don't you leave?

[Chorus]
Why don't you leave, leave this country?
Why don't you leave, leave this country?

[Verse 2]
If you are going every year to Italy
And if the culture is so rich in Germany
Thеn why don't you stay in there the following yеar?
If you don't have here the means that you're demanding
And if here your talent and genius doesn't give you fame
If your last name isn't González or Tapia
Then why don't you leave?

[Chorus]
Why don't you leave, leave this country?
Why don't you leave, leave this country?
Why don't you leave, leave this country?
Why don't you leave, leave this country?
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh

[Bridge]
(González or Tapia)

[Chorus]
Why don't you leave, leave this country?
Why don't you leave, leave this country?
Why don't you leave, leave this country?
Why don't you leave, leave this country?
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh
