What makes you laugh?
In a particular picture in the news
mr minister of impossible
I saw in full laugher and full euphoria
and full enjoyment your simple face
I'm curious, mr minister
What makes you laugh? What makes you laugh?
From your window the plaza is seen
The shantytowns not
Your children have ruling eyes
but others have a sad look
Here in the streets are happening things
that can't even be said
Students and workers
put the dots over the i's
That's why I say, mr minister
What makes you laugh? What makes you laugh?
You know better than anybody
the bitter law of those countries
You are harsh with our people
but why are you servile with others
How you betray the heritage
while the gringo charge us the triple
How you betray, and the others
the swarmies and the serviles
That's why I say, mr minister
What makes you laugh? What makes you laugh?
Here in the streets your guards kill
and who die are humble people
And who die are humble people
and who remain, crying anger
surely think of revenge
There in the jungle your men make
the man suffer and it's worthless
After all you're the main mast
of a boat going under
That's why I say, mr minister
What makes you laugh? What makes you laugh?
I'm curious, mr minister
What makes you laugh?
