Ricardo Arjona - Quinto Piso
Album: 5to Piso

Lyrics & Music: Edgar Ricardo Arjona Morales

Quinto PisoFifth Floor
Cielo arriba, suelo abajo
Pan de trigo, luz de neón
Yo aquí vivo, quinto piso
No consigo sonreír

Y la tele es un revólver
Y el vecino es un caníbal como yo
Y hay tanta gente por la calle
Disimulando la amargura.
Hay tantos lunes que los viernes
Están armando sindicatos

Para acudir a la fortuna
Te venden dioses novedosos.
Para encontrarse la ternura
Hay quien se manda una pastilla
Y este septiembre tan enero
Y esta sonrisa tan llorona

Tanto cielo, tanta luz
¿Quién me observa desde allí?
Tantos ríos, tanta sed
Tanta prisa por llegar

Y el futbol de los domingos
Y el café que abre unos ojos que no ven
Y hay tanto espacio en el espacio
Y hay tanta duda en las escuelas
Los mercenarios al congreso
Y otro estratega es emboscado

Estrofa 3

Cielo arriba, suelo abajo
Pan de trigo, luz de neón
Sky above, ground below
Wheat bread, neon light
I live here, fifth floor
I fail to smile

And the telly is a revolver
And the neighbour is a cannibal like me
And there are so many people on the street
Hiding their bitterness.
There are so many Mondays that Fridays
Are forming unions

In order to come into a fortune
You sell new gods.
In order to find tenderness
There are those that demand a pill.
And this September such a January
And that smile such a crybaby

So much sky, so much light
Who watches me from there?
So many rivers, so much thirst
So much haste to arrive

And Sunday football
And the coffee that opens a few eyes that do not see
And there is so much space in space
And there is so much doubt in schools
Mercenaries in Congress
And another strategist is ambushed

Verse 3

Sky above, ground below
Wheat bread, neon light
