trenes camiones y tractores



amadito, taking the escalator up to the west oakland station platform to ride el tren.


i came across this song the other day by árbol and of course thought of amado. he loves trenes (trains), tractores (tractors), and camiones (trucks)
a lot. i'm going to play it for him and i'm sure he will like it. he also really likes workers & hardhats (or really any type of helmet) so i may show him the video as well, although he is sure to have lots of questions about it which i won't be able to answer so maybe not.

trenes, tractores, y camiones
: árbol



trenes, camiones y tractores,

bicicletas y peatones,
barcos, aviones, submarinos,
toneladas de cemento...

avanzan, avanzan muy lento
me arrastran, me frenan, me siento
y yo pienso...

que aunque estés despeinada
me gustás igual
aunque estés en piyama
y sin maquillar
aunque estés enojada
por lo que pasó,
aunque ya no te vea
me gustás igual...

**

trains, trucks, and tractors
bicycles and pedestrians

boats, planes, submarines
tons of cement...

move forward very slowly
drag me along, put the breaks
on
i feel & i think...

even though your hair isn't combed
i like you the same
even though you're in pajamas

and don't have on make-up
even though you're angry
about what happened

even though i don't see you anymore

i like you the same...
