Entre les cames tinc un tresor...
Mant roig d'amor i guerra...
Entre les cames tinc un tresor...
Mant roig d'amor i guerra...

Els nostres conys
Les nostres cases
Carícies, queixes, desitjos i frases.
Epicentre latent, el tenim oblidat.
La figa protagonista la posem en un altar.

¡V de vagina, V de victoria!
V de venganza teñida de sangre roja
Atentas las vulvas toman el control
Los labios vaginales requieren atención

La volen neta, la volen depilada,
La volen jove i poquet visitada.
La volen perfecteta, la volen ocupar,
La volen, la volen, la volen maltractar.

Entre les cames tinc un tresor,
Riu de vida humida impera la foscor.
Mant roig d'amor i guerra,
Selva salvatge poblada i tendra (bis)

My pussy, my rules,
Mi coño, mis normas
El monte de Venus a gritos te informa
Que quiere mambo, reclamo mis manos,
Amiga, las mujeres nos masturbamos!

Gemega, gemega, respira i alena
Mira com es mulla mira com es desenfrena
Els dits en la cova fent espeleologia
Son ben rebuts com fidels en romería.

Coños de mil formas, coños de mil texturas,
Todos son salvajes y desatan mi locura.
Mis labios vaginales han salido a pasear,
No los tengo guardaditos, no me voy a avergonzar.

Quedem-nos en conill, rendim-nos honors,
Mengem figues les cuatre estacions,
Arribem al clímax, s'encen l'emoció,
es mulla la zona de la inundació...

Entre les cames tinc un tresor,
Riu de vida humida impera la foscor.
Mant roig d'amor i guerra,
Selva salvatge poblada i tendra...

La canción de la semana #584

After four years of silence, Sonido Gallo Negro is back with Cumbia Ishtar! According to Pan African Music, it

is dedicated to Ishtar, the enigmatic Babylonian deity of fertility, love, war and sex, which guards the secret of the beginning of humanity and all music. It is inspired by a famous Mexican Cumbia “Cumbia Arabe” by composer Francisco Nicolás Bobadilla. The band then merged it with a rhythm close to the “Calypso”, synthesizers and choruses. This song illustrate the group’s ability to create a very particular hypnotic mambo, and their mixed influences from Latin America, Middle East and Africa.

Cumbia Ishtar opens the band's new album, Mambo Cosmico (out next month on Glitterbeat Records).
