La verdad o la imaginación Lyrics English Translation by Fangoria
The extraordinary case
of a parrot from Medellín
who read Don Quixote
from start to finish
The spine-chilling life
of the mummy from Kankan
who wanted to wear gloves
made of toucan skin
What does reality matter anyway?
Always so overrated
What will win your heart,
the truth or the imagination?
What a shame, the rational
when the absurd is what rules
what will win your heart,
the truth or the imagination?
A recurring topic
at more than one gathering
Torrente’s crime
still unsolved
The story in Esperanto
of the snail child
who died showing
his horns to the sun
And when there’s nothing left to tell
the world will have stopped spinning
What does reality matter anyway?
Always so overrated
What will win your heart,
the truth or the imagination?
What a shame, the rational
when the absurd is what rules
what will win your heart,
the truth or the imagination?
What does reality matter anyway?
Always so overrated
What will win your heart,
the truth or the imagination?
