lyrics

On a motorway in D.F.
a troubled driver has to pay today
a drug debt, not well kept
has put a price tag hanging from his head

he parked his car down to the alley
to set the stage for a grande finale
and raised his gun

now there's someone
with a bleeding arm
and the other one with a shotgun
both messed up in something that
can not ever be undone

delays on the payment
left two corpses painting the pavement
in downtown

side by side the wealth and poverty
blood stained sites of violent history
corruption blooms in natives and gringos
Carlos Slim and narco bandidos

Mexico City Muertos

a homeless creep down in the streets
lives by cleaning up the windshields
of upper class moms and dads
whose biggest problem is where to spend their cash

polarization of society
leads the nation in anxiety and despair

side by side the wealth and poverty
blood stained sites of violent history
corruption blooms in natives and gringos
Carlos Slim and narco bandidos
Mexico City Muertos

I thought I'd never could see why you're so scared
until I caught you
by surprise and unprepared
Underneath you sleeps a golden soul
which without attention
turns from pure to foul
