She was a plastic girl, one of those I see around
The ones that when they get excited, they sweat Chanel number three
They dream of marrying a doctor
Because he can provide for them better
They don't talk to anyone unless they're their equal
Unless it's someone important
They're pretty, thin, well-dressed
With evasive looks and fake laughter
He was a plastic boy, one of those I see around
With a comb in his hand and a "it wasn't me" face
The ones who, as a topic of conversation,
Discuss which car brand is better
The ones who prefer not to eat
For the appearances they have to maintain
To walk elegantly and thus be able to pick up a plastic girl
What a failure
They were a plastic couple, one of those I see around
He only thinking about money
She about fashion in Paris
Pretending to be what they're not
Living in a world of pure illusion
Telling their five-year-old son
Not to play with kids of different colors
Drowning in debt to maintain
Their social status at weddings or hotels
What a failure
It was a plastic city, one of those I don't want to see
With cancerous buildings and a fake heart
Where instead of a sun, a dollar rises
Where nobody laughs, where nobody cries
With people with polyester faces
Who listen without hearing and look without seeing
People who sold, for comfort,
Their reason for being and their freedom
Listen, Latino, listen, brother, listen, friend
Never sell your destiny for gold or comfort
Never rest, because we still have a long way to go
Let's all move forward to finish together
With the ignorance that keeps us brainwashed
With imported models that are not the solution
Don't let yourself be confused
Look for the essence and its reason
Remember, faces can be seen
But never the heart
Don't let yourself be confused
Look for the essence and its reason
Remember, faces can be seen
But never the heart
Remember, faces can be seen
But never the heart
Faces can be seen, faces can be seen, well, but never the heart
We all come from dust and there we will return, as the song says
Faces can be seen, faces can be seen, well, but never the heart
Remember that plastic melts if it's hit by the sun
You see the faces, you see the faces, wow, but never the heart
Bubirubidubirubi
Bubirubidubirubi
You see the faces, you see the faces, wow, but never the heart
Study, work and be people first, salvation is there
You see the faces, you see the faces, wow, but never the heart
But look, don't let yourself be confused, look for the bottom line and its reason.
You see the faces, you see the faces, wow, but never the heart
Move on, move on, move on, move on, move on
And so we will remain united and in the end we will win
You see the faces, you see the faces, wow, but never the heart
But ladies and gentlemen in the middle of the plastic
You can also see the faces of hope
You see the proud faces that work for a
Latin America united and for a tomorrow of hope and freedom
You can see the faces of work and sweat
Of people of flesh and blood who were not sold
Of people working looking for the new path
Proud of her heritage and being Latino
Of a united race, the one that Bolivar dreamed of
