Iza Mekishiko he (Let's go to Mexico)

Text

Let's go to Mexico, follow Ginsberg's poems
Adorn your long hair with Jacaranda flowers

They've come to the market to steal the calves lined up
These slum children with the beautiful eyes

Let's go to Mexico, to the sun-drenched desert
Grab a bottle of tequila and freedom stark-naked
Straddle the border, it's just a little further to the city
Going crazy to the audacious rhythm inside this hallucination

Let's go to Mexico, Casablanca is calling us
Wear a gigantic sombrero on this long journey

At this cheap hotel with the veneered walls, reeking of mold
I'm soaked in the jazz record seeping in

Let's go to Mexico, to a foreign country that expands the imagination
What do I seek, grasping freedom and this blade of grass
I'm going to shoot through the highway and soar into another dimension
In this vivid city my heart pounds with excitement inside this hallucination

Let's go to Mexico, to the sun-drenched desert
Grab a bottle of tequila and freedom stark-naked
