Soda from Barcelona
When I was a young man my Dad said to me
“you should find another job, a real job a good job !”
“Buy a suit, bow tie, nice shoes, new car, briefcase..”
I said Dad please ! follow me ! ...
Soda from Barcelona, Soda from Barcelona ah ah ah !
Soda from Barcelona, Soda from Barcelona...
I did not realise that my father could be right,
I just remember we talked about a million times,
He said “ my son! sit down, be quiet, listen to me,
“ I have no connections in the music industry !...”
Soda from Barcelona, Soda from Barcelona ah ah ah !
Soda from Barcelona, Soda from Barcelona...
20 years after that discussion it’s always the same refrain,
Maybe you were right or you were wrong, there’s nothing
to understand...
20 years after that discussion it’s always the same refrain,
Maybe you were right or you were wrong, but for me it’s all the same! ...
“Please Dad, I want to give you dad, this song is for you Dad, from the bottom of my heart...”
“Please Dad, I want to give you dad, this song is for you Dad, from the bottom of my heart...”
Soda from Barcelona, Soda from Barcelona choubidoo bidoo !
Soda from Barcelona, Soda from Barcelona...
20 years after that discussion it’s always the same refrain,
Maybe you were right or you were wrong, there’s nothing to understand...
20 years after that discussion it’s always the same refrain,
Maybe you were right or you were wrong, but for me it’s all the same! ...
I did not buy a suit, bow tie, nice shoes, I didn’t find the job
you wanted for me… But I’m sure you’ll understand
cause I like happy ends, I’ll show you a sunny place where we could have a drink together, together,
together, together with me, together Dad….
“Soda from Barcelona, Soda from Barcelona choubidoo bidoo !
Soda from Barcelona, Soda from Barcelona...”
