Los Lonely Boys - American Idle [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

I can't stand all this fussing and fighting
We don't need all this bleeding and dying
Oh it hurts can't you see that we're crying?
Like a slap in the face to your mother
When we take and we steal from our brother
When we should be helping each other yeah

Take a good long look in the mirror
Can't you see that you're burnt from the fire?
If you say that you don't you're a liar yeah
Just stop the greed and the murder
All the racism because of your color
All we need is to love one another
Oh it's time to spread some love

Everybody knows you gotta make a dollar just to get along
Cause you have to, you have to yeah yeah
Love is something else and we always seem to leave it on the shelf
Why do we have to? We don't have to yeah
Everybody knows you gotta make a dollar just to get along
Cause you have to, you have to yeah yeah
Love is something else and we always seem to leave it on the shelf
Why do we have to? Don't have to no

A parar de pelear y matar nos
De morir y sangrar envidiar nos
Vamos a desparramar amor

Everybody knows you gotta make a dollar just to get along
Cause you have to, you have to yeah yeah
Love is something else but we always seem to leave it on the shelf
Why do we have to? We don't have to yeah
Everybody knows you gotta make a dollar just to get along
Cause you have to, you have to yeah yeah
Love is something else and we always seem to leave it on the shelf
Why do we have to? Don't have to yeah yeah
