lyrics

El ángel de buenaventura me condenaba
A echar el cerrojo a una vida desordenada

Era levitar, fuera de lugar
En una ciénaga oscura de mediocridad
Era caer, para no volver
En el crisol arco iris de la madurez

Y, al fin,
Tuve el mundo a mis pies

Años de intenso trabajo muy mal pagados
Las deudas ya caen como moscas, hemos triunfado
Pero cómo hablar de estable solidez
Si cuando vence la trampa se cambia la ley

Era hablar de obligación fiscal
A una estrella caída de la eternidad

Y,al fin,
Tuve al mundo a mis pies

Y cuando llega el silencio, oigo la voz
Del sindicato de tumbas de la exploración
"Jamás", dicen, "Lograrás
Cicatrizar el recuerdo de la libertad

Sólo mándanos flores cada vez
Que el sentimiento de culpa recorra tu ser

Y, al fin,
Ten el mundo a tus pies"
