El Día De Los Muertos

(album: Downside Up - 2004)

I hear you say
It's All Souls day
And you've come to play
For the lost ones
The unadorned ones
Here today

El Dia de Los Muertos
El Dia de Los Muertos
Bailamos, El Xantolo!

Kiss the bride
Dance with me
Come rattle these bones
Come and shake my tree
Embrace me irreverently
Now with marigolds
Shower me!

There is more time than life
One never dies twice
There is more time than life
One never dies twice

Wearing quetzal plumes
Through eight underworlds
Death comes shining
A thousand bright colours
And music out of this world
Serenades to bony twirl!

Me lleva el diablo
La muerte va de viaje
Esta es musica del otro mundo
Buenos noches y adios
Hasta luego mi amigos
See you in heaven or
See you in hell
All will be leveled
All will be well
Bailamos, El Xantolo!

Me lleva el diablo
La muerte va de viaje
Esta es musica
Del otro mundo
